I just noticed that in Pick an Ed, there's an Easter egg right before Eddy dresses up as Hugo: The EEnE video game. So does that mean that present-day technology DID exist on this show, but was just suppressed?

WHOA I’ve never noticed this four frame Easter Egg! Good eye. That’s definitely the only acknowledgement of video games in the show, and pretty unusual for a fourth wall break to bring in real world merchandise and show branding.

I do tend to think of it like Peach Creek’s just a backwater town and modern technology exists elsewhere, since the show has acknowledged dates as recent as 1998 and 2000, and both times those were being treated as old years. But it’s still jarring as hell to see a video game so close to Eddy!
