It was the first show I’d ever watched that felt like home. The characters themselves radiated energy that I hadn’t seen reflected elsewhere: manic and ambitious, cheesy yet philosophical, and constantly moving thanks to the boiling lines that contained their unusually-proportioned features. A bird’s-eye view of the cul-de-sac and trailer park. Broken fences, copious amounts of cardboard, and a close proximity to the Park n’ Flush trailer park more accurately reflected my surroundings, while the upbeat jazz soundtrack gave them an air of charm and nostalgia rather than despair. The cul-de-sac and alleyways of fictional Peach Creek seemed real and comfortable compared to the sanitized streets of other cartoon suburbia.
It felt different from other cartoons - edgy, subversive, and weirdly sophisticated for a show centered around haphazard “scams” and slapstick humor. The first time I watched Ed, Edd n Eddy, I was hooked.
