The fact it did that with minimal merchandizing is a testament to the power of the brand (the property wasn't on total merchandizing lockdown like Calvin and Hobbes, but it didn't produce the copious shirts and figurines you would've assumed). If there's one thing I've realized in the present, it's that series creator Danny Antonucci simply doesn't get enough credit for knowing his style and acing it to the nth degree.īeginning its run in 1999 and continuing strong for a solid decade amidst Cartoon Network's glory years, Ed, Edd n Eddy merited record-setting ratings for the network. I'm not going to pretend there's some deep social commentary embedded in its lunacy, although it was good for more than a few deceptively meaningful zingers. This is a program I hold dear and still revisit from time-to-time. You begin to appreciate its slapstick genius. Once you realize Ed, Edd n Eddy was the animated Three Stooges, suddenly it makes sense.
