About

Ed, Edd n Eddy is an animated television series created by Danny Antonucci about the exploits of "the Eds,", a group of three adolescent boys, that aired on Cartoon Network between 1999 and 2008.

Premise

The show revolves around three adolescent boys collectively known as "the Eds," who hang around in a suburban cul-de-sac in the fictional town of "Peach Creek". Unofficially led by Eddy, the Eds constantly scheme to make money off their peers in order to purchase their favorite confectionery, jawbreakers. However, their plans usually fail, leaving them in various predicaments that go awry.



History

The original concept from the show comes from a sketch of three characters that pleased Danny Antonucci, inspiring him to work on the concept for a kid series. In 1996, he faxed a concept sheet to Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon, receiving a quick response from both.[9]

The show officially premiered on Cartoon Network on January 4th, 1999, lasting 6 seasons. The show concluded on November 8, 2009 with the premiere of the TV movie Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show, which is recognized as the series finale. To this date, Ed, Edd n Eddy still remains the longest-running original Cartoon Network cartoon series and the longest-running Canadian-made series of all time.

Online Relevance

At some point, 4chan, users began captioning screencaps from the show with humorous and absurd internal monologues, similar to 60's Spider-Man macros. The earliest archived use of it, though, comes from a Funnyjunk compilation submitted on May 2nd, 2010.[8]

Around 2009, a theory emerged on 4chan's /x/ paranormal board about how the show's characters came from different time periods and settled within the cul-de-sac, which acts as a type of purgatory. However, the first registered version of the story can be found on a Boxden post from July 26th, 2009.[1]

In late-December 2011, Kevin Lordi released "The Bro Show", a non-canon spinoff of Ed, Edd n Eddy. "The Brow Show" details origins of certain things from Ed, Edd n Eddy, most of which will be Eddy's brother's fault.
