Ed, Edd & Eddy

I once hated this show but I decided to give it a chance. I love it because of how much deep thought Danny Antonucci and his cohorts had to put into this. This is a satirical commentary on the lives of kids who are between the ages of 10 and 13. At least one area in every big city has to have kids like this. Every kid in America has at one point has tried to scam money out of someone. Every kid in America has at one point been a bully to the weak or been bullied themselves by the weak. Every kid in America has shown hypocritical to their personality.

The show's basic premise has the three main characters (Ed, Edd, and Eddy) interacting with nine major supporting characters but it doesn't stop there. One of the most revealing aspects of "Ed, Edd, and Eddy" is the interactions between the supporting cast themselves. I remember one episode where the Kanker sisters kidnapped Kevin and tied him to a large wheel. The girls seemed to like Kevin as well as the Ed Boys. Ed released Kevin but the latter decided to be a complete dick and not say give out gratitude to his rescuer. Another episode showed Jonny 2x4 getting pushed down a hill in a tire by Sarah and Kevin. This to me shows that early adolesence is a trying time for all those who are going through it.

Another major aspect of "Ed, Edd, and Eddy" I like are the distinct characters. Every character on that show is well-written so they can have depth and personality. The situations they all get involved may be seriously far-fetched but I think it brings out the best parts of each personality. Each character that was created to portray some sort of typical adolescent personality (eg Eddy is the brainy wimp and Ed is the stupid brawn). Each character has its' own flaws and they are displayed perfectly in each episode they appear.

Possibly the best aspect of "Ed, Edd, and Eddy" in the gritty-like pencil and watercolor animation. It gives you the point of view of actual art that an early adolescent that might create in relation to his life and friends. At that age, artistry of that caliber is well-done and genius. The animation gives you the feel that you are actually in the mind of an early adolescent as they create such a visual landscape.

Overall, I think this a very original premise. It is a satirical look at the lives of twelve distinct characters who are in the stage of early adolescence. Each character's personality and depth are well-written and perfectly thought out. The animation is exceptional because it portrays the idea of superior early adolescent pencil and watercolor artistry. This shows ranks high on my list with "Beavis and Butthead", "Courage the Cowardly Dog", and "The Simpsons" for best animated shows of all time.

Grade: A++, the best show on Cartoon Network

Question: Why does everyone hate this show? Answer: I don't know. This has got to be one of the greatest shows known to man. The animation is far more unique than any other style of animation I've ever seen. And you've just got to love these characters!

Ed-An idiotic but lovable lummox who's absolutely crazy for those ridiculous B-movies, buttered toast, and stuff we rarely give a hunch for. His head is so empty you could fit Veterans Stadium in there but yet he's what makes this show so funny!

Edd-Also known as Double D, this genius knows just about everything as we all know. As a favorite of mine, I enjoy his liking for being clean, labeling everything, and being kind of course. Loved the way he played that Pedal Steel Guitar!

Eddy-The master scammer, as we know him, is always trying to scam the cul-d-sac kids.(or pigeons as he refers to them) He may not be the most popular of this fab trio but he's funny and hey, I like him!

So go watch it already! This is WAY better than the Powerpuff Girls anyhow! Thanks Danny Antonuci! You rule!

Ed Edd n Eddy is one of Cartoon Network's most popular cartoons, despite all of the critics out there who may not think too highly of it. I find a very entertaining cartoon that, like many other cartoons, illustrates what it's like not being "cool" or "popular." Ed is always happy, and tries to help (although he makes mistakes a lot.) Edd is very smart and is also aware of the consequences of their actions ahead of time (unlike Ed and Eddy.) Eddy is the one who tries to do what's popular, yet it always backfires on him. As if that wasn't enough, there are many other colorful characters as well. There's Sara, the annoying sister of Ed, Jimmy, the crybaby kid who's always afraid, Johnny, the loner who's best friend is a piece of wood, Kevin, who's motto is probably "it's my way or the highway," Rolf, the foreign boy who finds many of the Ed's actions unusual, Nazz, the pretty one who's Kevin's girlfriend, and the Kankar Sisters, the annoying girls who are in love with the Eds. It's a very funny show, because of the colorful characters, inspired settings and problems, and because of the things in the show that make absolutely no sense. For example, when Ed is spinning around a telephone post, it makes a busy signal sound. Another example is how it makes the noise of a car driving by when Ed is slipping through some lard (I think it was lard, I haven't seen that episode until a while.) Overall, I recommend everyone give this show a try. You may not like it right away, just give it some time.

My favorite part of Ed, Edd, and Eddy is that no matter how old you are or where you grew up, the characters of this hilarious show remind us all of those we grew up with. Look at it this way:

ED- the dim-witted, but good-natured kid who was always lacking in the brains department

EDD- that brainy kid who always got straight A's and was a complete nerd

EDDY- a greedy short kid who takes everything way too personal and knows that he's destined to be rich and famous someday

KEVIN- the basic "jock" stereotype who picked on the non-athletic kids

JIMMY- a weakling who felt terrified to play with older kids and everyone thought was a bit on the "feminine side"

SARAH- the super-evil bully who scared off practically everyone she met

ROLF- the foreign kid who puzzled everyone with their strange and bizarre customs

NAZZ- that pretty girl who always got boys' attentions and all the other girls wanted to be like

JOHNNY- the unusually strange kid who no one could ever really understand

THE KANKER SISTERS- those girls who thought the best way to get someone's attention was to be as ruthless as possible

No matter where you grew up, we can all identify with kids like this. Perhaps not as extreme as these characters, but it's hilarious to think of the kids we went to school with and now see them on TV.

Literally most of my childhood right here. Recently watched this from start to finish again and I remember why I used to love it so much. Its funny and goofy all at the same time! It's kinda sad how quick the years go by but I can feel like a kid again when watching this silly but impeccable show. I love it to bits and always will! Double D will always be my love lol.
