Talk:A Case of Ed/@comment-5525892-20160223215032

I didn't like this episode, mainly because, to me, Kevin and Double D fall into what TV Tropes calls "Unintentionally Unsympathetic".

First off, Kevin. Let's not kid ourselves, folks, Kevin deserved everything Ed and Eddy did to him, especially after what he did to Eddy in "Your Ed Here"--in fact, I think the reason for him being grounded was because someone told his parents about that incident. At no point during the episode did he have my sympathy.

Then there's Double D. People say that it was incredibly mean-spirited for his friends to prank him like that, and maybe it was. However, Double D should not have fallen for the prank in the first place. He's supposed to be the smart guy, so the term "Doctor Ed" should have caused him to wise up. Also, at no point during the "tests" did he attempt to pick up the book and check for himself, despite knowing that his friends, especially Eddy, are hardly the honest types. His decision to help the neighborhood bully is disgusting as well.

In the end, I do not sympathize with either of them at all, and the ending left me angry and disgusted.
