RACH: Q)First things first...thanks for taking time out to answer these Q's, guys! For those of us who love animation, tell us how you got into it!
Jono:I got into it by accident. My main area of interest was directing (Which is a tough thing to get into) but i had a couple of friends who were into computer animation and I started off doing free work for them. After awhile I actually started to get paid! and the rest is gravy!

Mike:I sort of fell into it by accident too. My brother Dan was a storyboard artist for many years, and had worked at many of the major studios including DIC, Disney, Dreamworks, Sony, etc. I was writing part-time, mostly for personal and fun reasons.I never took it very seriously as I was an aspiring rock star at the time...
Dan had some original ideas of his own and needed a writer so... voila!He asked me. We started to develop our own cartoons. One thing led to another and I landed a gig working for 'Ed, Edd n' Eddy', where I've been since day one. I've written for other stuff, and planning to write for more, but I keep pretty busy right now, so I'm not too desperately searching.


Q)How did you come up with the idea of the Eds?


Jono:EEnE wasn't my idea, it's Danny's brainchild. When I think of plots I tend to revert to my own childhood experiences.


Q)How do yers deal with criticism?

Jono:I assess any criticism I get and I evaluate its source. Some criticism I act on if it's valid, if it's not I just ignore it.

Mike:As far as negative feedback regarding the Eds, I really haven't heard any. Maybe you could fill me in as I'm sure I, and the rest of the boys back at the studio, would find it interesting. Especially as we lurve to horribly torment those that torment us!


Q) do you think in the not-so-distant future EEnE will
appear on
other channels for people who don't have cable?


Jono: Geez, I don't know anything about programming. I
suppose that it may
be bought by a regular T.V. station someday, but it
would probably be
in the distant future.

E-mail Danny!

Q)what was the inspiration that triggered the Eds?


Jono:You'll have to check Danny's answers for that. As far as the stories go, I always think of how it was when I was growing up. You know, when you're a kid you just goof around and get into
trouble.


Q)do you have plans to introduce any new characters?

Jono: Danny doesn't want any new characters on the show as far as I know.
DANNY:No new characters will be introduced and no Adults! Just
Ed, Edd n Eddy and the rest of the gang in the cul-de sac.
Q) who do you get on with best out of the EEnE team?

Well, being a bit of an egghead myself, someone who
prefers reading books to actually conversing with people, I have cometo sympathize greatly with the plight of our dear Double D. I alsoidentify with
Ed sometimes, because he's just trying to have fun and doesn't really understand what other people are saying and doing.

Q) Now...::drum roll::: the merchandise situation! What are
your thoughts on it??

DANNY:I have been assured things will look up in this area. Believe me I'm on the folks at CN everyday about this. So I highly recommend you write the folks at CN and at Warners (Warners are usually behind all the merchandising decisions) and let them know that you want EEE merchandise. They really do listen to you.
Q)What's your opinion on the Eds (Go on...flatter
them! :P)

Jono: The Eds try so hard. Won't somebody just give them a break? What do you have to do to get accepted around here?

10) What exciting things have been going on in the last year or so?

Jono: Just business as usual. I haven't seen daylight in three years.

11)What's the most embarrassing thing that's ever
happened to you?

Jono :When I was in the Amsterdam airport I had to go to the bathroom. I found the bathrooms doors but they didn't have any words or symbols
on them so I just picked one. It was a big washroom. There was no one else there. I went into a stall. Then, the door opened and a bunch of women came in and I knew I had picked the
wrong bathroom. I waited in the stall, hoping the girls would leave, but more and more
women came in. In the end, I just bit the bullet and walked out past them all, waving "hello". Pretty boring, I know, but what can I say,
that's it.


Q) Anything you'd like to say to the fans, boys?
DANNY:I hope you all enjoy the remaining shows. The 4th season will be a lot of fun and with some surprises too. The last show 'll just kill ya!
Q) and last but DEFINITELY not least...what colour's your underwear??? (Hey, it was Lee Kanker's idea, don't blame me ! :P)
Jono: Today it's grey. Not because it's dirty. Because it
was made that
way. And, for the record, it's boxers boys, not those
stupid
briefs! Get rid of them!

He loves me really...he can make his skin crawl at will, y'know!-RACH
