The fourth season of the Canadian-American animated comedy television series Ed, Edd n Eddy, created by Danny Antonucci, originally aired on Cartoon Network in the United States from July 4, 2002 to November 4, 2004, and consisted of 24 episodes. The series revolves around three adolescent boys collectively known as "the Eds," who live in a suburban cul-de-sac. Unofficially led by Eddy, the Eds constantly scheme to make money off their peers in order to purchase their favorite confectionery, jawbreakers. However, their plans usually fail, leaving them in various predicaments.

The fourth season was met with positive reception, and was nominated for a Kids' Choice Awards, and two Leo Awards, winning a Leo Award. With the season, Ed, Edd n Eddy became Cartoon Network's number one rated show. While the season was set to be the series' last, fan demand resulted in the network ordering two additional seasons and three holiday specials.

The Ed, Edd n Eddy DVD volume Fools' Per-Ed-Ise featured four episodes from the season. "Don't Rain on my Ed" was featured on the compilation DVD Cartoon Network Halloween Volume 3: Sweet Sweet Fear. The entire season can also be purchased at the iTunes Store. The season was written by Antonucci, Jono Howard, Mike Kubat, Geoff Berner, Brent Miller and storyboarded by James Wootton, Todd Demong, Werner Marcus, Joel Dickie, Jim Miller, Scott Underwood, Timothy Packford, Kent Webb, Charlie Chien and Leah Waldron.

Concept and creation
Ed, Edd n Eddy follows the lives of three adolescent boys who all share variations of the name Ed, but differ greatly in their personalities. In the pursuit of buying jawbreakers and fitting in with the other kids, dimwitted Ed and intellectual Edd aid the self-appointed leader, Eddy, in his plans to scam the other children in their cul-de-sac out of their money during a perpetual summer vacation; however problems always ensue. The other children mostly dislike or show indifference to the Eds, though they all share a common fear of the Kanker Sisters, a group of teenage girls who live in the nearby "Park n' Flush" trailer park. The series takes place mostly within the fictional town of Peach Creek, and new locations were rarely introduced.

Production and cast
