Ed Edd and Eddy has to be the most intelligent and funny cartoon series ever. 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. 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. Here’s my brief up of the three main characters Ed Edd and Eddy

Ed - An idiotic but lovable guy who’s absolutely crazy for those ridiculous alien movies, buttered toast, and stuff we rarely care about. His head is so empty you could fit a stadium in there but yet he’s what makes this show so funny! My favorite character, never fails to make me laugh. He is very kind and good-natured kid and can often confuse reality with his monster movies. He’s stupid and he usually speaks in some sort of jumbled up riddle. Just today I walked in on an episode where he said “What can you do if you live in a shoe and you ain’t got no soul”. Funny? Brilliant? you decide.

Edd-Also known as Double D, this genius knows just about everything as we all know. I enjoy his liking for being clean, labeling everything, and being kind of course. Loved the way he played that Pedal Steel Guitar! Edd is amazingly intelligent, able to construct complicated machines from cardboard, signs and various junk the Eds come across. Edd is kind-hearted and would never betray his friends, which is also his weak point. Edd has a obsession for wearing too much clothes. He is always seen with his cap on and has a secret below the cap that nobody except Ed and Eddy know.

Eddy-The master scammer, as we know him, is always trying to scam the 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! Everybody has at some point in his life met someone like Eddy. The guy who loves money and would do anything for it.Eddy is the self-appointed leader of the Eds (or Ed brothers as Rolf calls them). He is very sensitive about his lack of height. Eddy loves his retro styled room, complete with a lava lamp, a large round king-sized bed and a disco ball. Eddy is extremely selfish and would probably sell his friends for jawbreakers (the candy type thing every kid loves. notice the name itself says so much about the thought gone into it)

The nine other characters, which includes a wooden stick that johnny has a face drawn on and calls him his friend (Johnny actually talks to his plank and is often seen taking advice. Many people believe Johnny is faking it and is a very intelligent kid to actually make a fool of all other characters ) and a completely unseen character “eddy elder brother” have distinct personalities. Many people (including my brother) complain about the style of animation used, It may not be as clean as other cartoons, but it sure does bring so much energy into the screen. The series is created by DANNY ANTONUCCI and airs between 11 to 12 pm on Cartoon Network sunday to friday. So go ahead and watch it, it might take a few episodes before you actually understand why its loved so much.

Oh, there’s even a online petition asking DANNY ANTONUCCI to create a movie on the characters http://www.petitiononline.com/edsmovie/petition.html
