Merry Christmas, fellow Eddheads! I'm your host Lbat1901 coming at you with another Eddsworld episode review to celebrate that special time of year.


In case, if you've missed it, I did a Halloween special and I ended up doing a big oof moment which resulted me becoming a zombeh. Yeah.... but hey, at least I had a great time. 
So, what we are reviewing today? Well, we will be taking a look at Eddsworld Christmas Special 2005. Yeah, we're going back in time two years before 2007 but let's not dwell on that. Let's get into the review.


The Plot


Eddsworld Christmas Special 2005 was released onto Newgrounds on December 2nd 2005 and later onto YouTube on March 16th 2016. The episode itself is loosely based on A Christmas Carol but it is mostly a parody of the 1946 film It's a Wonderful Life which a good majority of you have never seen nor heard of because all of you are probably very young. 


Well, you're not alone on this. I've never heard of it until my grandma decided to put it on every year for Christmas. I would say that the movie is worth checking out if you're curious. 


Anywho, the episode starts off with Edd, Tom, and Tord in the Eddsworld Studios Building. We see Tord shaking off a blonde woman off his leg while Tom and Edd watch. Once Tge lady was off Tord's leg, the boys go into an elevator as they have a conversation. Tom asks Edd what he did during the weekend which cuts to Edd sitting silently in a blank white room. 


This scene basically sums up my two brain cells whenever I have to take a final exam at school. ....You didn't have to call me out like that, Edd. 


Once getting out of the elevator, the three boys walk down a hallways while Tom tells a joke. Tom and Tord continue to walk down the hallways as Edd heads to office where we get a top down view of him entering his office and walking towards his desk. Once he sits down, he begins drinking a lot of cola before passing out. 


While sleeping, Edd's guardian angel appears and wakes up Edd. The guardian angel tells him that he'll show Edd a world where he never existed. Edd confused, asks the angel why which the angel replies saying that he'll get his wings. 


The angel then pulls out a remote controller device and presses a button causing a portal to appear. The two get sucked into the portal and are transported to a alternate universe where Edd was never born. The angel takes Edd to Tord's house which Edd states that the house was his not Tord's. The angel says that in this universe, Tord owns the house since Edd was never born. While looking through one of the windows of the house, the angel explains that Tord was never nagged at and ended up making a famous comic strip and became a full blown communist which resulted in Tord getting arrested when he almost took over Norway. 


Once Tord walks out of the house, Edd suddenly comes up to him and shakes him which Tord gives off the same exact expression that I make whenever I see a random dog come up to me out of nowhere. 


The angel tells Edd that Tord doesn't recognize him because he was never born. The two watch Tord walk off before Edd asks if Tord still liked cola. The angel says that he doesn't stating that Eddd wasn't there to share it nor buy any cola products. The Angel adds on to this saying that cola sales plummeted and the company eventually had to shut down which causes Edd to scream in terror.
