Grateful thanks as always to Zoe & Danny @ AKA for passing this along.Yay for the EDS!
______________________________________
After way too long waiting in the wings for it's moment(s) of glory, some good news at last on the airdate for Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show, it will premiere on Cartoon Network (in the USA) at 7pm on Sunday 8th November! Woohoo! This information is 'hot off the press' from AKA & Danny himself who was anxious that we got the scoop as soon as possible, so our grateful thanks as always to Danny, Zoe & AKA and make sure you reserve your place by the TV for the evening. Popcorn at the ready guys, not long to wait now! =D (and obviously if we get info on UK / other airtimes we'll let you know too.) ______________________________________
Just a note to tell you that our online community will cease to be hosted on this site with immediate effect and is already up and running over here under the new admin team of Jaha, EM & Turbo so please do check it out, you'll be very welcome! Both myself & Zeph hope to pop in regularly as well and there are plenty of 'regulars' from the old board too so it already feels like home.Huge thanks to the new admin team, could never have done it without ya! ______________________________________
Yep, we are blowing our own trumpets a little here but to be honest we are kind of amazed that EDtropolis (formerly called The Ed, Edd n Eddy Zone') is 10 years old today! Who would have thought 10 years ago this evening when I made my little site on Tripod, which consisted of just 1 page and half a dozen pictures, that a decade on it would still bew going strong and through Ed, Edd n Eddy not only would I get to meet Danny & many of the other wonderful people who made the show but also to make some incredible friends and be priviledged to see and host so much wonderful creativity in the shape of fanart, fanfics and discussions. Thanks to everyone who has participated and made the site what it is today, it sounds so cliche but it really couldn't happen without you the fans and we here at EDtropolis / E2E forums know that Ed, Edd n Eddy fans are the best in the world! You rock guys. Thank you :)

Yep, I am a little late with this but even so it's well worth pointing out that April Fool's day 2009 also saw the 15th birthday of AKA Cartoon and of course Danny & Co celebrated in style with 'a night of blood, sweat and tears ... and popcorn and booze' in the shape of a private screening of the Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show movie at the Rio Theatre in Vancouver. Sadly it was out of the question for me to get there but I'm very honoured to have received an invite & wish so much I could have been there to enjoy the fun! Here's hoping it was a wonderful night for you Danny and fingers crossed CN puts the Eds movie out worldwide soon!
______________________________________
Zeph & I are sure that every Ed, Edd n Eddy fan around the world will join us today in raising a glass of En-O-Gee Drink and wishing the creator of Ed, Edd n Eddy & all round animation ace Danny Antonucci a wonderful birthday. I heard from El Hombre himself just a couple of days ago & he's doing great. One the down side, just like outselves he has no clue at the moment as to just when the long-awaited EEE Movie will air on CN, but on the plus side he's really enjoying himself working hard at creating his new show. So in addition to thanking him for 10 great years of the Eds, let's wish him every success in this new venture. Happy Birthday, Danny!
______________________________________
Apologies for the delay, real life has been keeping both Zeph & myself away from the site recently but we've finally got our act together now and so if you click the links below you can visit the 2 special 'dedicated to 10 glorious years of Ed, Edd n Eddy pages & add your bit as well -
Both archives will remain open throughout the year & we'll endeavour to update them as often as real life allows. Please don't worry if your stuff doesn't show up right away, we'll get to it ASAP.
______________________________________ Wow, doesn't time fly when you're having fun? Would you believe it but on January 4th '09 it will ten years to the day that CN's brand new show Ed, Edd n Eddy premiered in the USA & was soon followed elsewhere across the world. And of course, the Eds haven't looked back since because with five successful series under their belts plus 3 holiday-themed & 1 'alien' special plus & a sixth season in the shape of 2 shows and the long-anticipated, soon to be released movie plus tons of fan-created artwork, fiction and websites and even the
odd little piece of memorabilia & DVDs *hint hint, more please CN* you simply can not deny that the show has been a huge success for Cartoon Network as well as the Eds creator Danny Antonucci & AKA Cartoon.
Oh, and on a purely 'blowing our own trumpet' note ^_~ as if ten years of the Eds on TV wasn't enough for us, on April 5th Edtropolis will reach its 10th year too.
So here's to 2009 - the Year of the Eds. Long may they reign!
We hope everyone enjoyed the Holidays, and a big thanks to those of you who sent in themed fanart. You can visit the gallery by clicking the banner-link below.
Just for once I'm not gonna waffle on, you should know the score by now! Got Holidays-themed artwork you'd like to share with fellow Eds fans? Then please do send it in. Click the banner for details and a glimpse at
this year's gallery!
We'll be accepting Holidays fan art up until 31 Dec / 1 Jan when the focus will switch to something new and we'll be announcing some of things we have planned on Edtropolis for 2009!

Lothar certainly did judging by the wonderful fanart he got for his Halloween Gallery. Big thanks to everyone who participated this year. To view Lothar's collection, simply click the banner below.
______________________________________
Yes Lothar wants you, or at the very least he wants your artwork because wouldn't you know it, it's almost Halloween again & we'd love to see more of your spooktacular artwork! ______________________________________
What happens when both your laptop and your desktop computers go vwap at the same time? Why you end up offline for several weeks and get behind with the site & what's going on out there in Ed-land. Anyway, as you may have seen on T3E or elsewhere on the net, it's been reported that Eds creator Danny Antonucci has agreed on a deal with animation studio W!ldbrain which as Double D would say, is 'intriguing' to say the least.You can check out the official news sources at Animation Magazine and also at Animation World Network.Hopefully more details on Danny's work will become available in due course. Big thanks to Liamedx for sending me the heads-up back in early Sept. Sorry for the delay, Liam! ______________________________________
I think this may have been mentioned over in the Forum a little while back but it's well worth mentioning again that if you have Comcast's 'cable on demand,' and haven't caught these shows before, the Season 6 eps 'Look Before You Ed' & 'May I Have This Ed' are available in the Cartoon Network section. Might be worth your while checking it out! A big thank you to Robert from Cape Coral in Florida for the reminder. ______________________________________
This isn't so much news as an announcement, so here's saying 'Congratulations' to Bunji for becoming the new helmsman of the ever-popular The3Eds website. ^_^ It has to be said that over the years and even quite recently, we have been confused and indeed saddened by the notion held by some fans of the Eds in assuming that the two sites (T3E & EDtropolis) and the two online communities (T3E and E2E) are in some way competing with one another. Nothing could be further from the truth. What T3E & Edtropolis/E2E are doing however, is what they believe is a very worthwhile task - namely promoting a great and original cartoon show & celebrating the fact that through Ed, Edd n Eddy, people around the world are brought together in friendship to discuss, create and above all, to enjoy.So please, no more of this silly 'sites in competition' stuff guys, we're not rivals we're simply different with the most apparent differences probably appearing in our online communities. T3E is a much faster moving, snappier, altogether livelier forum where things go with a bang, whereas E2E (while we do get zappy occasionally) moves at a rather more laid-back pace. Some people are members of both communities but prefer one over the other, some find they can't get on with one or the other and some remain regular members of both and simply and celebrate the difference. After all variety is the spice, no? And if we were exactly the same, well it would get pretty dull pretty fast! So again congrats to Bunji & the other guys n gals over at T3E, a terrific Eds fansite which we're proud to be affiliated with! Carry on the good work guys, onwards n Eddwards! ... Kit & Zeph ______________________________________
This is long overdue but heartfelt nevertheless, so here's saying a very big thank you to E2E forum members Eds Maniac, Jaha Canon, StarShine, TurboJ, Furienna, Trap-Eds and Spikender who have all agreed to act beyond the call of duty and in mid-June joined our moderating team. Thanks guys, Zeph & I appreciate your help enormously. And incidentally, E2E itself will have been around in its current vBulletin incarnation for 4 years in September, older members may recall that before that it spent a few years on EzBoard and those of you with elephant-like memories may even be able to say you you were part of the 'original' gang waaaaay back before than on Bravenet back in '02. Oyyy, it's been a while, huh? If you feel like joining in we're always happy to meet new members, asking only that you be at least 12 years old to post on the forums (although of course you are welcome to read them if you are younger), understand and adhere to our 'family friendly' rules and above all play nice. Any of the above mods, together with Zeph (ZephyrSamba), Orko, Astrik, Dave or myself (aka Flame of the West) will welcome you on board and be happy to answer any questions. See you there ... Kit.
______________________________________
Apologies for the long hiatus sans updates, real life has been busy busy busy over the past few months what with finals, vacations and a couple of computer wig-outs to boot. I've at last updated the fan-art section and Zeph has upgraded the forum ('cos she's smart and I'm not) and hopefully over the next few months will find time to complete the episode guides and get cracking on a couple of new items... Kit ______________________________________
Budding - or indeed experienced authors might like to know that we have just started a strictly 'just for fun' fanfic of the month competition over on the Fanfic section of Earth to Edd Forums that we invite forum members old & new to join in with. We're still very much in our 'trial' period with this idea which will concentrate mainly on canon Eds stories.Would-be entrants please note that 'Fanfic of the Month' is pre-chosen themed Eds fanfic (meaning everybody works on the same subject / topic / leader-line which will change every month.) If we get a good response then there will be a poll to vote for your favourite story, with the winner then getting to choose the next month's topic (within reason of course!) If we get sufficient entries on E2E, then in a few months perhaps we'll transfer the idea onto the main FanFic area of EDtropolis which has been quietly sleeping for a while now. Feel like having a go? Click the pic below & check it out.

We get a lot of mail asking us when - and indeed if - Seasons 3, 4 & 5 are going to be released as DVD box sets. Well the truth of the matter is that just now we simply don't know and unfortunately neither do AKA Cartoon. So many thanks to Kyle for passing on this good idea of doing as AKA Cartoon have often asked us to do in the past - namely send CN some polite feedback showing them that there is a dedicated Ed, Edd n Eddy fanbase out there and its eagerly awaiting the follow-ups to the first two box sets. Cartoon Network has a 'ready to rumble' feedback form on its site (linked below) which as Kyle says is really easy and quick to use so let's use it and see what happens. Oh and remember, although it may make you feel good to send off a stompin' trompin' gimme-style missive that sounds like it came from Lee Kanker on bad hair day, that's really not going to help the cause much, so please guys, whatever you say, whether its simply that you love the show or that you would love to see more merchandise be in T-shirts, video games or of course DVDs, try to be polite ... ya know it's what Edd would want! ^_^

______________________________________ Well sadly the Eds didn't manage to scoop the Kids Choice Award over on Nickelodeon on 29 March, the award going To 'Avatar: the Last Airbender' which is indeed a great show, so congrats to them ^_^ Huge thanks to everyone who took the time to vote for
the Eds, we were up against some tough competition and at the end of the day I think simply being one of the 4 nominees in that category counts as a big plus and goes a long way to showing what a success the show is!
*And now please excuse while I go tell Orko to stop bouncing around because yes, Johnny Depp won again :P
______________________________________ Once again, Ed, Edd n Eddy have been nominated for the coverted 'Favourite Cartoon' award on Nick's annual Kids Choice Awards. This time around the Boys are up against the likes of Avatar: the Last Airbender, The Simpsons and Spongebob.
The Awards take place on 29 March and until then you can vote for your faves once every day, so please go for it, it'd be so cool if they won! Edit March 30th - link removed as voting is now over.
______________________________________ And a thank you from all of us at Edtropolis to everyone who contributed to Danny's birthday page this year which was clearly a huge success! We sent details of the page off to Danny on the eve of the big day and
very soon afterwards received word from Danny himself saying 'Just thought I’d crawl out of my dark hole to leave a message... And of course, thank YOU and Nadia for the b-day greet!' Danny's message to all
of you Eds fans out there who sent in birthday wishes & pictures reads:
______________________________________ It's that time of year again, the time when we invite Ed, Edd n Eddy fans around the globe to put down your buttered toast and raise a glass of En-O-Gee drink as
we wish a very happy birthday to Danny Antonucci, animation supremo and creator of Ed, Edd n Eddy! Have a great one Danny!
______________________________________ It came as a shock - albeit a pleasant one - to many fans in the UK when CN-UK snuck out the 2 episodes that comprise Season 6 over the half-term holidays by tagging them to the long-awaited 'The Eds Are Coming' CN-Invaded special!
The real shock came because for some strange reason, CN decided not to announce these premieres & the Sky TV schedule had them logged as season 5 shows instead ... very weird! But for the lucky ones who did catch them these shows May I Have This Ed / Look Before You Ed were a real treat
and the perfect aperitif for the much anticipated Eds movie. ______________________________________ As many an Ed-fan knows, February 27th is the birthday of El Hombre himself, none other than Danny Antonucci, animation supremo and of course, creator of Ed, Edd n Eddy! And so in keeping with
our little tradition here, we're inviting Eds-fans everywhere to join us in wishing Danny a very special day.
Want in? Fantastic! All you need to do is click the banner above and you'll be taken to a page where you can leave your message for Danny, it will then appear on our special birthday dedication
along with any Eds artwork or other celebratory Danny-related piccies you wish to show the world!
*edit* March 2008 - link now closed
______________________________________ Oyyyy, yes we know its been an incredibly long time coming but finally we're ready to accept your Eds-themed artwork again, so if you're feeling full of New Year
creativity, why not nip across to the main fan art section _________________________________
Well, as Twelfth Night rolls around & the holidays fade into history, we at Edtropolis wish everyone who has visited or contributed to the site or the forum a very bright 2008! Betcha can't wait for that movie! ^_ _________________________________
Just the thing to remedy all the festive candy excess of candy, CN-UK is dishing up a marathon serving of vintage Ed, Edd n Eddy between 10am - 4pm on Sunday 30 December! Don't miss it! Check out the UK schedule here! _________________________________
'tis the night before Christmas so here's hoping that each and every one of you has a wonderful time throughout the holidays, be happy, be good, eat up your vegetables and of course, keep on watching the Eds! _________________________________
December's here already Eddy! And to get you in the holiday mood CN-UK is showing the Eds Christmas special 'Ed, Edd n Eddy's Jingle Jingle Jangle' twice over the weekend of Dec 8th & 9th. You can catch the fun on channel CNToo on:

A big thank you to those artists who have already sent us their wonderful holidays artwork, if you fancy admiring them and then sending in your own, simply click the banner above!  Festive fun aside for a sec, I am moving house (again) on Dec 8/9 so if you send in a pic, please don't be worried if it takes a few days to appear in the gallery... Kit (who's busy, busy, busy!)

A little nugget-sized update for Eds-fans eagerly awaiting 'Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show' (and that means every Eds fan I hope!) Work for the movie, which is the most elaborate and challenging work that AKA have tackled to date is progressing well and with all the guys working full steam ahead, the halfway point for the storyboard drawings has already been passed. So to everyone out there drooling with anticipation and howling out 'How long?' please stay frosty & put your trust in Danny & Co because AKA are rising to the challenge and doing their very very best. We know the long wait will be more than worth it :)_________________________________
We have a mighty collection of spookilicious pictures sent in by Ed-fans on Lothar's gallery, which you can visit by clicking the banner below. If you would like to have your own picture included then please get it in to us by Thursday 1 November. After that date the gallery will close (it will still be viewable of course) and a week or so after that, we'll start thinking about holiday artwork instead Edit: Nov 2nd 2007 - the gallery has now closed for submissions. Thanks to all the artists who joined in the fun :)_________________________________
Huge thanks to everyone who has sent in their Halloween-themed artwork so far. You've made Lothar very happy! And if you haven't sent your pictures in yet, why not? *wink* Come on now, don't be shy, we'd love to see what you can do!. _________________________________
We realised recently that it's been waaay too long since showcased your artwork and so with Halloween coming up, we thought it would be fun to have a Halloween-themed gallery running where you can send in your pics showing the Eds n kids getting up to all sorts of spooky stuff. For more details click on the 'Lothar' banner above.' So please join in the fun, all ages, all styles and of course all abilities will be very, very welcome. We will be accepting Halloween-themed art from now until 1 Nov when we'll turn our attention to the Holidays (Thanksgiving / Christmas / Channukah / New Year etc ) instead. Following that, into 2008, if response has been good we'll open the fanart section up properly again :)

E2E (Earth to Edd) forum regular 'Phil the Valiant' is planning, with some help from his friends, on constructing a website dedicated to the cul-de-sac's very own sweetheart Nazz, which he hopes will be up and running in October. We always think it's great news when a fresh site comes along and this sounds like it will be a lot of fun, even more so when it just so happens that Phil is looking for plenty of 'outside' contributions from Nazz (and of course, Eds) fans and yes, this means YOU! So, if you feel up to the challenge and would like to contribute some of your Nazz-related stuff for the site (for which you will of course be credited) then all you need to do is get in contact with Phil and send it right along, he's looking for screen caps, fanfic, fanart, fan videos, tributes and so on so get those creative juices flowing! You can catch up with the latest ideas for Phil's website by visiting the ongoing 'International Association of Nazz Lovers' thread on E2E - to visit simply click on Nazz below & remember that to post on the thread you will first need to join up!
You may also contact Phil with contributions via email address, just click here -->

Erin Fitzgerald, who provides the voices for Nazz and May and appears on the E2E forum under the name of ' piranhamae' has kindly allowed us to mirror on the forum a recent post from her MySpace account, concerning the fun she's been having recording the movie ^_^ To read the post on E2E click hereTo visit Erin's MySpace pages click here. (Note: minors, please check with your parent / guardian first!)_________________________________
Linking nicely with the above post from Erin, we thought it might be an idea to jog your memories should you wish to write to some of the other actors involved with the show. Sadly we don't have contact details for everyone but we'll update our list should this change! Note: the link will take you to the relevant 'fanmail' thread on the E2E Forums here_________________________________
_________________________________
We're off to BC again between May 30 - June 10th so any emails or PMs you send may take a little longer to get a reply than usual. Once we're back and things have settled down again there'll be a few things in the pipeline, including an update on a new idea for the fanfiction section (we're still hammering out details here), news on fanart & creative stuff and also the Animation by Mistake (AKA) website will be in for a serious (and long overdue) overhaul! Busy times ahead guys, see you when we get back and if you're finishing school soon have a great start to the summer break ^_^ _________________________________
If you happened to miss it the first time around or just want to kick back and relax and watch the whole thing unfold in one chunk, then don't forget to tune in at 7pm on Monday 28th to catch the whole of CN Invaded! _________________________________
As something of a celebration to mark its merger with the old Toonami channel, the new improved CN Too is showing a couple of hour long blocks of the Eds this Sunday plus the 3 specials (first of which starts at 2.30pm) my schedule doesn't list a showing order but hopefully they'll be shown chronologically. Further details of the UK schedule can be seen here! _________________________________
Don't forget that tonight's the night to catch the second part on CN-Invaded, titled 'The Eds are Coming.' Make sure you tune in to catch how the cul-de-sac deals with the imminent invasion! _________________________________
The much anticipated Eds movie due to air in 2008 has been currently - and tentatively - entitled: "Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show!' Sounds intriguing huh? However,as Eds creator Danny Antonucci has mentioned to me himself, the movie's title is not yet set in stone (we said 'tentatively', remember) and so it could all change. Food for thought eh? _________________________________
May 7th is a public holiday in the UK so if you're in the mood for some hour long blocks of your favourite show, then tune in to CN-UK to enjoy the May Day Marathon where the Eds are sharing the spotlight & alternating with Ben 10! According to the ads appearing on Cartoon Network we are also in for a couple of new shows and since we only have a couple more to complete Season 5, let's hope that CN keeps its promise! Unfortunately, my schedule doesn't list individual episodes but the Eds hour-long blocks are scheduled to kick off at 9am; 11 am; 1 pm; 3 pm; 5 pm & 7 pm so stand by those DVDR's if you're hoping to catch the new stuff! _________________________________
The first installment of Cartoon Network Invaded begins this evening at 7pm with the collaboration kicking off with the Fosters show, the Eds installment will run next week! What's it all about? Well basically the premise is that a deep space message sent by Bloo from Fosters results in 'hand over all your cheese' style alien warmongers arriving on earth bent on global domination which subsequently affects several of CN's hit cartoons - Fosters, the Eds, Lazlo, Gym Partner and Billy & Mandy. These special shows will air one a week throughout the month of May, culminating in a special finale on Memorial day. Enjoy! _________________________________
With Season 5 reaching conclusion as part of CN's 'Best Day Edder' marathon there seems to be a lot of rumour, confusion & even hysteria flying about over what's happening next and the so-called 'end' of EEE, so I'd like to take the opportunity to say please guys, don't panic & don't believe everything you see or hear. As it stands at the moment, Season 5 has aired & Season 6 currently stands at just a couple of episodes because as you all know Danny & the crew at AKA are currently slaving away non-stop on the production of the much-anticipated Ed, Edd n Eddy movie. The movie is not scheduled to be completed until sometime in 2008 and you can bet your last buck that until Danny is 100% happy with it he won't give it the okay for release. What am I saying? Simply that as of now AKA have their plates pretty full and are concentrating on the movie. So where does this leave Season 6? Well of course as of this point in time who can say, I certainly don't know but once any decisions have been made them we'll know about them soon enough. Some Eds-fans have asked me about starting up online petitions to demand more seasons from CN but to be honest I feel these are too easily discarded, much better if you're hoping for more shows is to send a - polite - letter to CN whether by email or snailmail telling them how much you enjoy the show. The Eds have been a real success for Cartoon Network and seeing this confirmed enforces the message that they have an audience out there still hungry for more. And of course, please let AKA Cartoon you love them too, your fanmail is always welcome. Long Live the Eds! ^_^ _________________________________
If you're a night owl then you may well have already noticed that Cartoon Network UK has added Ed, Edd n Eddy to its late night (well, early morning really) line-up of shows! The schedule for Ed, Edd n Eddy in the UK can be found on the Earth to Edd Forum's TV section but check your local listings too ^^_________________________________
Um, yes it is kind of late but as I've been away for most of April doing a grand tour of NV,AZ,UT,CA & FL it's going to have to be a case of better late than never! Thanks for all the birthday wishes, every time the Eddzone's birthday comes around it amazes me that we're still hanging in there and of course its down to two things - firstly, the fact that Ed, Edd n Eddy is such a fantastic show and secondly that it has such supportive fans! Thanks for always being there guys, you rock! ^^ _________________________________
Oyyy, finally managed to get my act together and upload some of the long-lost season 5 episode guides. The list is by no means complete though, I've only done a dozen so far, the fact that I'm moving house in a week or two and have no idea what's going on means that I'm not sure when the rest will follow but be assured they will eventually! Ohh and don't forget some eps are still as yet unaired. You can access the latest eps via the 'Season 5' link under 'Episode Guides' title on the main menu bar. Enjoy, and as always if you've not seem the eps yet, beware of spoilers!^_^ _________________________________
Just a reminder that it's Eds creator Danny Antonucci's birthday today, you can see the messages left by fans by clicking the banner below!

Fans of Joe Stevens 'Gravy Enquirer' - which is hosted on Edtropolis - will be happy to know that for the time being at least, Joe is going to continue creating new issues although since he is very busy in real life (as am I) the intervals between new issues appearing on the site may vary according to what's going on in RL for both of us. In the meantime guys, please do not hassle Joe about when he will get the next issue out, it gets real old real fast. Thanks. Gravy Enquirer Issue #43 is now online and can be accessed from the main menu. _________________________________
Whoohoo! N & I first learned the exciting news about this one back in October last year during a visit to the studios and having been sworn to secrecy about it, we've been sitting on pins waiting for CN to announce it ever since! In a nutshell then, the premise is that every Friday in May (that's the month not the Kanker sister) a specially commissioned alien-invasion orientated episode of one of the following shows - that's Ed, Edd n Eddy (yay), Fosters, Camp Lazlo, Billy & Mandy and My Gym Partner's a Monkey will be shown after Foster's Bloo starts the whole invasion thing off with his deep-space message! And as if that wasn't enough, on Memorial Day CN are showing the whole kaboodle - that's all five special shows as part of their 'World Alien Invasion Marathon' which they are further backing up with online games and even an alternative ending! Looks intriguing huh? So just how will Ed, Edd n Eddy and the rest of the Cul-de-Sac kids react to the alien invasion? Guess we'll just have to wait a while to see ^_^
_________________________________
Yes, yes I know there hasn't been a whole lot of updating going on here recently, real life has kind of taken a hold what with classes & preparing to move house and left little time for the site. But enough of my waffle, as many of you will no doubt know, Danny's birthday is fast appraoching and so with this in mind, Zeph & I would love to hear from you Eds fans, so if you'd like to send Danny a birthday message or even feel like making some special birthday-themed art for him to be shown on this site, then please let rip! Simply click the banner above for more info!
Cartoon Network UK caught us on the hop today and slid out new eps 'All Eds are Off' & 'Smile for the Ed' unannounced on the Sky schedule! Hopefully the pattern of repeating shows the next day will continue in which case keep your eyes peeled for the show again tomorrow! _________________________________

Hopefully, the new shows will all quickly be moved into the general airing rotation too ^^NEW THIS WEEK ON CN-UK: (showing at 6.00pm & various other times - check yer listings, Ed! Wed 1 Nov: Who's Minding the Ed / Pick an Ed Thu 2 Nov: Truth or Ed / This Won't Hurt an Ed Fri 3 Nov:Tinker Ed / The Good the Bad & the Ed _________________________________
Big thanks to Tak at The3Eds.com for the illumination ^^ Cartoon Network UK loves to confuse us, not only is it running an ad telling us that new S5 shows begin on Monday 30 Nov, but at the same time it's running an ad for the Half Term Billy & Mandy event showing teaser clips from the new shows. Confuzzled? I know I am. Poking through the schedule has revealed the following premieres starting earlier than the Eds ad tells us; it's worth remembering that occasionally in the past this has all gone a bit pear-shaped with an older ep being shown instead but really you've nothing to lose here so it's probably a good idea to set your video, dvd, tivo or whatever in the hope that CN comes up trumps. U.K. SEASON 5 DATES: (showing at 9.00am & 5.00 pm) Mon 23 Oct: Boom Boom, Out goes the Ed / Cleanliness is next to Edness Tue 24 Oct: Mission Ed-Possible / Every Which Way but Ed Wed 25 Oct: Out with the Old, In with the Ed Thu 26 Oct: I am Curious Ed / No Speak da Ed Fri 27 Oct: Cool Hand Ed / Too Smart for his Own Ed _________________________________
Well glory be, according to ads and teasers spotted on CN-UK, there will be brand new episodes of the Eds (as in the long awaited Season 5) kicking off from Monday 30 October. No details on titles and times yet and as I'm out of the country from Oct 20-26 I won't be able to update until 27th so keep an eye on CN-UK to be in the know ^_^ Fingers crossed for Eds fans in other parts of Europe that this means that the new shows will be rolling out there soon as well.

Big thanks to Plank's best friend Astrik for tracking these down again. Filmtecknarna's much loved shorts 'My Best Friend Plank' and 'The incredible Shrinking Day' which disappeared from their site some time ago can now - in addition to 'Plank' being found on the first Eds DVD - be enjoyed online at the following locations: On 'Retrojunk':
BEST FRIEND PLANK --------------SHRINKING DAYOn 'You Tube':
BEST FRIEND PLANK --------------SHRINKING DAYFor our money although the video is slightly smaller on Retro Junk, the pic is better quality, but of course each to his own. Enjoy, but as always when online please remember that if you are a minor it's always a wise move to get your parent or guardian to check out the sites first just to ensure there's nothing there you shouldn't be seeing or clicking on. _________________________________
With a handful of Season 5 shows already on-screen Stateside, production for the rest of the run is currently in full swing, and with Season 6 already on the horizon as you can well imagine it's very much a case of the usual frenetic 'all systems go' over at AKA Cartoon. So, if you're wondering just what the rest of Season 5 holds in store for the Eds then why not let your gaze take a teasing wander through some of the upcoming episodes plotlines below. You saw it first on Edtropolis, Ed.
* * * * Intrigued? We hope so. Obviously there's plenty to discuss & speculate upon here so if you feel like joining in don't forget the site message board.

Minors please note you will need to ask an adult for help / permission to shop online at CN _________________________________
Just a reminder that if you're eagerly awaiting the release of the Eds next set of DVD escapades then you've not long to hold your breath now as the intended release date is set for 21 March. 'Fools Par-ED-ise' follows on the heels of volume 1 'Ed-ifying Edventures 'and retails at around the fourteen dollar mark although you may well find online places such as Amazon offer a discount (at time of site update it was under $10) and you may well find it on sale at a good price in local stores such as Walmart too so shop around ^^ Here's hoping the DVD generates enough sales and interest to persuade CN to release full season boxsets huh? _________________________________ Yep, it was that special time of the year again - no, not free Jawbreaker day Eddy - but Eds creator Antonucci's birthday! Here's hoping a fun day was had by all and that the Kankers didn't spoil the party, long may El Hombre reign! _________________________________
Cartoon Network UK finally has an online store, however before we all jump for joy it's worth pointing out that at the time of my writing this all they actually have on there are things for your mobile (cell) phone. Please bear in mind that the downloads not be compatible with all makes of mobile so please do check this out before you buy to save disappointment. Click on the 'my phone' link (pic of Courage) and find your make of mobile to check out just what you can get before you try to order. ^^So far the selection includes: Eds theme ringtone: this is not exactly as you hear it on the show (click the demo to see what I mean before you decide to buy it.) The ringtone will cost you 2 plus your standard sms rate for your first message plus standard rates for the content download.Wallpapers: a small selection of Eds wall are available and they each cost 1 plus your standard sms rate for your first message plus standard rates for the content download.
Giant Jawbreakers Game: Once again Ed, Edd n Eddy are doing all they can to get their hands on as many delicious jawbreakers as possible. But to the despair of the Eds, the Jawbreakers are too big to fit in their mouths! Help the Eds break the jawbreakers down to an edible size by smashing them up with an assortment of wacky weapons, from toilet plungers to slingshots to yo-yos! Loads of crazy weapons to choose from. Play as any of the three Eds. 27 different levels.The game costs 3 plus your standard sms rate for your first message plus standard rates for the content download. There is a playable demo on the CN-UK site so I suggest trying it out first before you buy. Again, please note that games and tones may not be compatible with all makes of mobile so please do check this out before you buy to save disappointment.
Well I guess it's a start but here's hoping that we will be seeing some real merchandise available in the store soon, T-shirts, caps, DVDs etc none of it would go amiss! _________________________________
We hope you all had some memorable holidays (Kit had flu, Zeph had 14 hours of a cat yodeling in her ear) and are all geared up for a bright and shiny 2006.

Thanks to R.C. If you're deliberating whether or not to treat yourself to the new Mis-Edventures game on the GameBoy Advance, perhaps the fact that Canada (and thus presumably in the US too) it comes complete with a free DVD that contains behind the scenes footage from AKA, including extensive interviews with Danny, Scott, Rach, the voice actors and the good people at Midway that made the game possible. Altogether there's at least an hour's worth of stuff to enjoy that wont be seen anywhere else so it's definitely a must-have for any die hard Ed-head!. _________________________________ ED, EDD n EDDY's BOO HAW HAW - HALLOWEEN SPECIAL USA AIRTIMES: Friday, October 28th @ 7pm / 9pm / 11pm Saturday October 29th @ 12:00 pm Sunday October 30th @ 2:30 pm / 9.00pm Monday October 31st @ 7:30 am / 1:30 pm / 4:00 pm / 10:00 pm _________________________________ UK AIRTIMES: Monday October 31st @ 4.55 pm / 8.25 pm (times for CN UK = add 1 1hour)
