THE RUG PULL | Peach Creek: Episode 1

Finally, after 2 long years, it's here. Thank you all so much for your patience, and I'm so sorry it took this long. Hopefully, it will have been worth the wait.

Peach Creek. The cul-de-sac gang are back!

Episode 1: The Rug Pull

It's the final year of high school. In what seems to be an uneventful year, the Eds begin fixing the van in the junkyard, rekindling childhood memories. But something throws a spanner in the works...

There you’ll get exclusive access to behind the scenes content (like the animatic, character turnarounds etc), as well as get early access to episodes when released.

On Ed, Edd n Eddy, the first scene showed Double D labeling things in his room. Now Peach Creek begins showing all the labels removed. Nice and clever tribute to the show.

The transition in her dream to the original art style was incredible.

Seeing this as an adult and understanding some of the messages of what was happening to the characters in the original show feels like a suckerpunch... DDs parents being simultaneously absent but hyper-controlling, Ed being seen as nothing more than a burden/caregiver to his sister, Eddy idolizing the sibling who abused him bc of his parents absence... can't wait to see where this goes

[Doctorgeo]

Seeing Ed's childish innocence alongside Eddy's and Edd's melancholy really drives home how much they've grown. And growing up can suck.

Wow. The voice acting is actually very close to the original! The voice actors all did amazing!

This series has such a melancholy tone. It's like the creators are mourning the loss of their childhoods.

[Bubbaxlt]

I had a buddy named Talon who was a big fan of the original show, sadly he left this world behind before this version came to fruition. I'll be watching it in his memory.

As a child, I was always sad for the Eds as they were socially isolated and had crap family situations. I felt that and related to them so much. A lot of my peers saw the funny side of the show, but I always felt slightly depressed for the main trio (especially Double D) after watching each episode. I think I was only around 7 at the time I started to have those feelings. This episode captured those childhood feelings of mine perfectly.

[Darkstar]

This really hits home for us who grew up with the show. With a more dark mature tone. A metaphor for growing up. Leaving their fun and goofy childhoods behind and entering the lonely and depressing adult life. Sometimes I wonder where all my old friends are now but the other part of me tells me I should leave it in the past. Such is life and the yearning for the good old days.

[viktorberzinsky]

Watching this feels akin to running into an old friend you haven't seen in a decade or two and wondering what the hell happened to them and if they're okay...And I mean that in the best possible way. Everything from the writing to the general vibe is marvelous.

“I have to help Sarah with her homework.”

That is amazing foreshadowing right there because it’s so subtle.

At first it just seems like one of the ways Sarah pushes Ed around to do whatever she wants. But when you start to think about it, the statement is a bit weird: why would Sarah want Ed, the person she regards as a complete idiot, to help with her homework? He’d probably end up getting in the way.

Fact of the matter is, that was a lie on Ed’s part to cover up what he was really doing.

Peach Creek already got the attention of the creator Danny Antonucci, the voice actors of the Ed Boys and AKA Cartoon Inc, the studio behind Ed Edd n Eddy and so far they are okay with this
The only thing the current creator of this unofficial sequel needs is a blessing from Antonucci himself
Episodes 2-6 has already been planned and currently in production

[mattdonnelly]

Watching this as an adult who grew up on the original series is trippy. The art direction is different, but it works and I fell right back into the world. Very well done.

[danielperez]

I liked how double d actually seemed to feel genuinely bad for johnny and what he had to go through, really shows that he was his friend in the original show.

[TheNathanNS]

"Johnny 2 by 4, did we ever call him that in the original show?"
"Season 1 I think"
Perfectly nailed that occasional 4th wall break humor the series had.

[Veteransolo]

I'm 27 now, hitting 30 in 3 years, I grew up with these guys, watching them brings me middle school and high school nostalgia, I'm glad I had an awesome time in my teens with ed edd n eddy.

[AtrocityEquine]

I love the way it just sets the mood and focus on Double D. A somber, quiet, and melancholic teen accepting his parents are always going to be out of his life. I do love the characterization of the other Eds: Ed is still the same dumb dork with a lovable heart and Eddy still has that proudness, but he definitely seems more reserved. I liked that he kept the changes after the events of _Big Picture Show_ too.

[LessThanKona]

Watching this makes me feel like I'm catching up with elementary school friends I haven't seen in years.

[PeachCreek]

Well, it has been a while.

First, want to start with saying how sorry I am it's taken this long for episode 1's release. I could chalk it up to a huge number of reasons, but the fact is at the end of the day those reasons are irrelevant to you, the audience. You were expecting something, and I had failed to deliver it in the timeframe I was expecting. However, I want to thank you all so, so much for your patience while this has been worked on. A lot of tinkering, changes, last minute additions, design changes, and rewrites have gone into this, and I hope that it will have been worth the wait.

From here, we're starting work on another minisode, and episode 2. A lot of learnings have been taken from the production of episode 1, as well as a lot of...well, shortcuts, I guess, to speed things up. Minisode 2 is currently entering the animatic stage, and episode 2 is in the storyboard stage.

HOPEFULLY the wait between these will be significantly shorter than the wait for episode 1.

Thank you all again, sending you all good vibes <3
