About
This Was All Because of Ed, Edd, and Eddy, also known as This Was All Because of Ed, Edd n Eddy, refers to a viral video from TikTok of a man claiming that an angry group of people that he's surrounded by at a mall are mad because they just discovered that the Cartoon Network show Ed, Edd n Eddy had been canceled. He says verbatim, "They found out that Ed, Edd n Eddy stopped playing on the TV and everybody's wylin' now… Ed, Edd n Eddy been canceled for years. Yo, that's why I'm confused." At the end of the video, a shooting is heard among the crowd. The original video was posted by TikToker Carlo Malis (also known as @carlomalis and formerly known as @carlo.malis) in 2020. In the years that followed, the video was frequently brought up again in internet discourse as many online believed that it was one of the best TikTok videos of all time. Users praised Malis' seemingly spontaneous and improvised bit amid the angry crowd that eventually boiled over in violence.
Origin
On November 9th, 2020, TikToker[1] @carlomalis posted a video with text reading, "This was all because of Ed, Edd, and Eddy," in which he was at White Marsh mall in Maryland amid an unruly crowd. He tells the viewer, "They found out that Ed, Edd n Eddy stopped playing on the TV and everybody's wylin' now… Ed, Edd n Eddy been canceled for years. Yo, that's why I'm confused."
At the end of the video, a shooting is heard and the video cuts to chaos with text reading, "What cartoon would you go this hard for?" Over four years, the video received roughly 3.9 million plays and 911,600 likes (shown below).
