When I was young around the late 90's, this Canadian cartoon show started showing up on Cartoon Network called Ed, Edd n Eddy. Gave it a try and loved it. It's about three misfits, all named Ed. One is tall and a little forgetful, but for reason can be intelligent but doesn't know it named Ed, a smart guy who wears a cap on his head and never takes it off and goes by the name of 'double d' (or Edd) and a loud mouth thinks he knows it all but doesn't leader of the group who tries to show off, loves money and says he learns from his brother named Eddy.
Now where do I begin. First off: Everyone hates them (mostly Eddy) but since Ed and Edd are with them they hate them as well. There are some other kids that are there too one is a bratty girl that is Ed's little sister named Sarah and her friend Jimmy who is afraid of his own shadow. A tall guy named Rolf who came from another country and eats a lot of meat. Kevin is their main problem. Why?
Because every time he sees Ed, Edd or Eddy he calls them "Dorks" That's his pet name for them. He always rides his bicycle and Eddy hates him the most. He tries his best to think he's better than Kevin. Mostly because he thinks Kevin is just a big shot.
Nazz is another character that Edd and Eddy have a crush on. I don't know if Ed ever had a crush on her. She likes the guys a lot but sometimes, when they get out of line she gets angry, but it's Sarah who throws a temper tantrom like a two year old.
And then you have three girls named May, Lee and Marie. They love Ed, Edd n Eddy. Lee Loves Eddy May Loves Ed and I think Marie has a thing for smart guys AKA Double D.
The parents are never seen in this show and I mean never seen! Except for one or two episodes where Ed and Sarah's mother is seen. Only her back side and her hand, never her face. The kids mention their parents many times. Like Rolf's Nana or Double D's mother and father and I always thought Ed and Sarah's dad was dead. But who knows, with him never seen who knows. Eddy's dad is seen, but only his hand. Eddy even mentions his brother a lot saying that he use to own the culdesac and was popular.
It's over now, and how they ended it, I thought was very good. They did as a movie called "Ed, Edd n Eddy's big picture show" The Ed's are in so much trouble because of a prank that went wrong. The kids are so angry that are wanting to kill Eddy so the Ed's try to hide out. Eddy decides it would be best if they all lived with Eddy's brother for a while the problem is that they couldn't find him. They have clues left out by his brother and go off on an adventure, with the kids closing ever behind.
Eventually they find his brother and so do the other kids, Eddy being happy but soon the other kids find out Eddy's brother is a real jerk and decides to hurt Eddy worse than the kids would have done. Making him say "uncle" and pulling pranks on him. Soon realizing how much pain Eddy was really in, they forget their hatred for Eddy and decide to save him. Ed and Edd too. Eventually, Ed knows Eddy's older brother out and Eddy eventually tells Ed and Double D the the truth that he was lying about his brother the whole time. He just wanted to be cool, to be accepted and to be part of the click that his brother created so kids would like him. Happily, his truth set him free of all the sadness, greed and anger that he had to deal with throughout the whole show. (They do break a lot of fourth wall jokes) And the kids finally except all the Ed's except for one: Jonny 2x4 and his pal which is a piece wood named plank. But who cares.
The show was pretty ok, but I mean in my opinion they had some good episodes, some bad episodes and at the end is where it all paid off. Was very, good ending. Usually with tv movies that involved a series finale you expect it to suck like "The Proud Family Movie" But this one was very well put together. Thought it ended in a good note and I found out the creator made this show as a dare. Well that dare was worth it. Till then, ciao bloggers! and Ed, Edd n Eddy ROCKED!
