Ed, Edd n Eddy's 6th Season is not happening...for now.

[Red]

http://the3eds.com/

Cartoon Network decided to let us do a movie INSTEAD of season 6. The movie, although only 90 minutes or so, basically IS season 6. Which is why in San Diego (at Comic Con) Danny told everyone we were green-lighted for season six, because it wasn't until we all came from San Diego that plans got changed around a bit.

However, as we already know, the end doesn't necessarily have to be the end. Remember back when "Take This Ed and Shove It" was the "last episode ever"? It was due to fan response that CN asked AKA for more episodes... Now... We've already gotten TONS of email asking us not to cancel the show. But, WE (AKA) can't really do anything about it. My advice to anyone worried about saving the show is to contact the folks who can do something about it--namely CN.
And so it WASN'T Danny's decision to cancel season 6. If you'd like to bother CN for a 6th season, as well as for the movie to be played in cinemas, I suggest you tell them yourself through this handy feature on CN's site: http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/feedback/index.html

So there's a new movie coming up, but they do not have permission to make new episodes at this time.

[Mr. Ralph]

dang it!!!! i'd take a season over a movie any day of the week:crying:

[Darklordavaitor]

Why can't we have both?

[Megaman X]

hopefully the movie will be good:D

[Coolboyman]

Okay, so first CN BEGS Danny for a fifth and sixth season, so Danny and AKA finally cave in and does their request. Now Cartoon Network changed their mind, so all this work goes to waste. All the scripts for the sixth season are done, and possibly lots of storyboarding, so where will all that work go to? Cartoon Network, you do not stop production MID SEASON PRODUCTION for what ever reason. I feel awful for the AKA workers who worked hard on Season Six and did whatever work on it, which will never be seen by the fans because a network "Changed their mind".

I keep my statement of "Cartoon Network is trying to be like Nickelodeon", for this is the exact same thing that happened to Invader Zim, which was stopped in mid season production.

[KuwabaraTheMan]

It's possible they're just putting things on hold for now. Given the ratings powerhouse Ed,Eddn'Eddy still is, I'd be surprised if CN doesn't want a 6th season in the future.

Still, this is a pretty boneheaded move.

[Ishtar]

It sucks that Season 6 got canceled, for now. I was looking forward to it. Looks like the Best Day Eder wasn't lying about that ep being the last episode. Hopefully the movie is good, though.

[TheFZAtUGSOnline]

I Agree With U Coolboy, You Cannot Stop During And Once The Production Is Finished, Always Worry About Stuff Later, Or When Something Goes Wrong. (Take Note for Example: The Eureka severeD Fiasco of 2007 and The Big O-cidents I & II)

But do you have info on movie?

Invader Zim was my fav show in 2006. I liked it alot. So why did it end?

Eureka 7? Big O? What sort of incidents involving those two are you attempting to babble incoherently about?

[Dr.Pepper]

Did they get rid of those new specials too? Hopefully not.

[TheFZAtUGSOnline]

Eureka 7? Big O? What sort of incidents involving those two are you attempting to babble incoherently about?
The fact that [as] butchered the E7 finalie for commercial reasons is one, and the fact that [as] played Big O ep.20 instead of the finale (the one instance and its entirety, thoe other with only a few minutes of it aired, and then announced that they pulled a wrongo, and played the acutal ep) is another.
take it from an AD almost-original.

I don't know what an AD almost-original is or why you think it's an automatic reason that I should take you seriously.

The Big O misairing was a mistake. Simple as that. Mistake.

Not airing the E7 finale in its entirety likely wasn't the choice of the AS programming staff. They're beholden to a strict time limit for every production they air. I know the typical Internet fan doesn't understand things like commercial obligations or anything else that goes into running an ad-supported cable network and simply prefers to think that such decisions are made out of spite for the fan and if they were running the network, they'd be all programming all the time with no edits and no commercials and all that, but AS certainly didn't butcher the episode and in fact they're showing an encore airing of it this Saturday as a favor to the fans.

[Jazman]

Hmmm....Well, It answered my question officially. Just another giant F.U. to CN's viewers if true, and the 6th season doesn't come about (which I no longer expect, cause why would they wait? If the heads at CN wanted this show to continue, they would continue it. Trust me.). I remember saying in another thread that the day this show stopped, my regular CN viewing days would be over. Guess that's sooner than I thought.

[CartoonSage]

Well it's official, I have NO reason to watch CN anymore.

[YoshiAngemon]

What about Pokémon, or Bo-BoBo, or even Naruto and the upcoming redub of One Piece by FUNimation? If you don't want to watch Cartoon Network anymore, there's OTHER things to watch, like 4Kids TV for TMNT Fast Forward, Viva Piñata, and Rerun episodes of Sonic X!

[DarthGonzo]

And if you don't like anime? :shrug:

[Lavenderpaw]

Guys,this show was funny but it didn't really hold any meaning.It pretty much always ended the same and all 'good' things come to end.I,too,grew up with it but it isn't the end of the world.Want another show just like this?Go head on over to Spongebob or Fairly oddparents (less stupid show) they're good.:yawn:

I agree.

Like I've said before. The show had a really long, successful run - one of CN's longest running original series. I think everyone should be thankful that EE&E never went the way of PPG or Dexter and ended when it was still at the top of it's game. It will be in reruns for a while, and even if it's not at least the series is being released on DVD. It's time to celebrate the end of a great show, not whine and moan about how CN is screwing every body.

And when you think about it logically, just why would CN outright lie for weeks about "A Fistful of Ed" being the last episode ever if it wasnt? Honestly, if the show is over then so be it. Nothing lasts forever. We've had over 8 years of Eds, and it was sweet while it lasted. Time to move on, that's all.

[Neo Ultra Mike]

Thing is though they still did lie. Even if there isn't going to be a sixth season of Ed, Edd n Eddy, there's still the 30 minute special (the alien invaded one airing in a week), the movie (airing who knows for sure) and one episode left of season five. The fifth season finale may of aired but that only made 12 season five eps so there has to be another one that's yet to air as well. So CN did technically lie about it being the last episode, even if there isn't a sixth season.

And in general, I could come to respect Cartoon Network for cancelling Ed Edd n Eddy if it was just them wanting to end the show on a high note. But you don't cancel a show in the middle of producing another season nor go back on your promise of an episode order. I could understand ending it after six but not after five when they promised six. Maybe it's just me hating those who go back on they're promise but really did EEE even do anything not to warrant a sixth season? Besides you know being older then the other crop of CN Toons on now?

[Butters]

Oh Gawd! I wish we could have both. But I'll go with a movie. :)

[TheFZAtUGSOnline]

I don't know what an AD almost-original is or why you think it's an automatic reason that I should take you seriously.
AD almost original= [asmb] Action Discussion "Almost" original

[BCVM22]

Still doesn't explain why you think it means I should automatically take anything you post as gospel.

[Draft]

Thats retarded, no offense...

i think i finally get why Jeff calls CN the network

Exactly. I could let this show go easily, but rule one for not sticking it to your viewers is never promise something then go back on. I would have been fine if CN had said, we ordered 5th season and called it quits. That would have been respectful to a show that has had a some would call "legendary run on CN" (I mean, 8 years for a CN original is unheard of, and more than likely will be a while before that streak is broken by any of the current crop). Instead, we pull the life support plug. I think that's what more people are upset about, not that it's ending, cause we all knew it was coming one day.

[Rabi~en~Rose]

this is so terrible! :crying: first how is CN allowed to back out of a season order like that?? and secondly why are you guys happy the show is ending before it gets bad :confused: the shows been consistanly good so I doubt another season would have been terrible!

[RoseBusch]

Hey, we have no power to force CN to bring back EEE. It's been on for 8 years, no other CN original made it to 8 years (Dexter's Lab almost, 1996-2003). I know you want EEE to stay until at least 2009, heck, I would love if they did end 2 years later, but a good show dosen't need to be around with bad shows (Gym Partner, Squirrel Boy, Camp Lazlo). Some shows don't stay forever, even The Simpsons are on its last years (or if someone important dies). EEE was a heck of a show, it's the last cartoon cartoon to be still active after all these years. When it got cancelled in 2004, EEE did a Family Guy like comeback, we were so happy, so even it didn't hit the 78 episode mark, we at least get the movie and specials, and count them as episodes.
EEE was if not the best CN original ever. We all know that CN is going down in viewers because the current CN is a loser, and if the Jim Samples succedor can bring CN back a little and listen to us and not themselves, maybe, just maybe the show could make another Family Guy like come back. But for now, let's watch the specials and movies.

Well said,but there is still a little hope for a comeback if everyone sent cn a feedbacks explaining why theywant the show and others than we still have a chance that is what im currently trying to do save the ed's!

[RoseBusch]

I don't know how to feedback to CN.

[DarthGonzo]

Doubt that would do any good.

If CN has gone as far as saying - on the air - that they were airing the last episode - then I think the show's fate is sealed.

Watch the reruns. Buy the DVDs. Enjoy the memories.

[The Wolverine]

CN doesn't care about that.

[Red]

I suggest writing a letter to them if you really want to be effective and maybe even get a response. I don't have the address, but I'm sure you can find it. But it's more responsive than an e-mail, that's for sure.

[Dudley]

I hate the fact their canceling the show, but I look more forward to the movie than anything else.

Yes,that is what i'm doing but you cant lose hope maybe there will be a new special every once in a while like a thanksgiving special or something

[Red]

I'll re-establish, the show is not cancelled. Cartoon Network just wants to give the show a break. AKA is all for making new episodes, but maybe CN feels they have too many shows on their hands. I'm sure once a couple shows get canceled it will be back.

[TheFZAtUGSOnline]

How about u go to CN's Squirrel Boy-Induced Feedback Page and send yo compaint threre.

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Doubt that would do any good.

Aside from the fact that, you know, there's still another episode coming.

They're a business, and the Eds are the most succesful and highest rated original.

[Tolneir]

That would have been respectful to a show that has had a some would call "legendary run on CN" (I mean, 8 years for a CN original is unheard of, and more than likely will be a while before that streak is broken by any of the current crop).

it may not have 8 years yet, but Billy and Mandy is pretty close. still, it's not Ed, Edd, n Eddy.:sad:

Well, Bilyl and Mandy and KND are ending by the end of the year, and Lazlo got kicked out of its area for the new series Flapjack. So that's 3 cancellations,but unfortuantly we got 5 new CN Studio shows..

I don't think Ed, Edd n' Eddy will be coming back, and as i said before, I think i truely understand why Jeff calls CN the Network

[.bg]

Thank god! The Eds died during that hiatus between series 2 and 3.

[AhmedtheHead]

I really have to say that CN did a great disservice to us fans.

How could a network greenlight an extra season and then have second thoughts after so much work was done? It's idiotic. It's nearly becoming like how NBC treats Scrubs. I will be signing petitions and giving feedback to the network. They have to understand that they are making a big mistake [haven't they learned from canceling Teen Titans?].

I have to say, CN is going to lose a lot of viewers, money, and popularity points if they cancel it. If they were smart, they should at least just make season 6 the last season, and also release the film in theaters.

[btv]

What were the ratings for the Best Day Edder, anyway? I mean, while we are on the subject of the Eds, of course.

[KuwabaraTheMan]

What were the ratings for the Best Day Edder, anyway? I mean, while we are on the subject of the Eds, of course.

It was the first day in a while that CN beat both Nick and Disney.

So very, very good.

[Dudley]

It was the first day in a while that CN beat both Nick and Disney.

Was that because Spider-man aired afterwards?

[Coolboyman]

Good news! Due to the big ratings for the Best Day Edder, Cartoon Network has allowed....

ONE additional episode to be produced for season 6. "Season 7 is in consideration". Not likely it's going to happen, but I would be happy if Season 7 contained at least nine episodes (bringing the eposide total to 78, AS PREVIOUSLY PLANNED). (http://www.the3eds.com)

If the worst happens and theres no season 7 (and it probably will), I got confrimation from an AKA worker (Dan) that Danny is pitching new shows to various networks, so the spirit of AKA will live on even if the Ed's end.

[KuwabaraTheMan]

That's good news.

Told you all that it wasn't going to be the end. The show is still such a ratings powerhouse.

[Speedy Boris]

I haven't watched EE&E in a while, but the commercials for it have enticed me to get back into it. Such incredible animation...

[Jazman]

I take that site at it's word, (edtropolis) mainly cause it's been the equivalent to the official Eds site for years now. I was getting info from them long ago when I was a rabid fan of the show. Good find. Puts to rest a lot of rumors.

Just ONE episode after dynamite ratings? :confused: That's stupid. That's not a complete season, what on Earth are they trying to pull? I really hope CN get their heads out of their butts and order more episodes, or at least season 7.

[DarthGonzo]

I doubt it. I still think Ed, Edd and Eddy is over and done.

And are we sure the marathon didn't get good rating towards the end because people were just tuning in waiting for Spider-Man?

[A StrangeTypeGuy]

I doubt it. I still think Ed, Edd and Eddy is over and done.

And are we sure the marathon didn't get good rating towards the end because people were just tuning in waiting for Spider-Man?

Well, the ratings were the average for the day, but think about it: Spider-Man's aired on CN before, and it didn't get this kind of ratings, so why would it be a smash hit now?

It was a 24-hour marathon, apparently leading up to the final episode of a show that's been around for 8 years. I doubt that a rerun of a 5-year old movie would be the reason it did well.

[limel]

Well, the ratings were the average for the day, but think about it: Spider-Man's aired on CN before, and it didn't get this kind of ratings, so why would it be a smash hit now?

Spiderman 3. People save money; they don't need to go to blockbuster to rent it before they see the new one. I didn't watch it, but I have the DVDs. No doubt the ratings success wasn't just Spiderman, but The Best Day(s) Edder AND the movie rerun.

[Cartoon_Kid]

Well,I think if they do show the movie and a special that it will end the series right 2 hours of eee would be so great lets just keep hoping

[fredfredburger12]

I don't really know if this is good or bad, I mean I would like there to be NEW EPISODES and A MOVIE but, they run out of ideas and then the episodes get stupid. :mad:

[Cartoon_Kid]

Well,Not all the time and maybe thats why they canceled it but they Havent had a bad episode in my opinion

[Zach]

I just took the time to write Cartoon Network a nice letter explaining that I want a theater release of the film and a sixth season, but I doubt they pay any attention to what is written through their feedback page. Still, it was worth a shot. EEE is one of the only shows worth watching on CN anymore. I hope that this great original cartoon (One of the last that isn't cancelled) is preserved.
