Read All About Ed

"Read All About Ed" is a season 1 episode of Ed, Edd n Eddy, in which the Eds paper route is easy for them at first, but later too much for them.

Plot
It's early in the morning and Double D's got himself a paper round to save up for an electron microscope. Eddy is instantly lured by the prospect of earning money, imagining how much dough could be earned from 50 rounds! Tons of newspapers are duly dumped next morning upon Double D's home, however mornings are not Eddy's thing and he somehow manages to lie around sunbathing and dreaming of all the Jawbreakers they will soon be able to buy whilst his pals run themselves ragged delivering the news. Things could do with speeding up so Double D devises a machine to shoot the papers (or Ed) onto doorsteps at high velocity … however, it's only a matter of time before disaster - and summer rains - strike!
