"Know it all Ed" is the first episode of the second season of the animated comedy television series Ed, Edd n Eddy. It originally aired on Cartoon Network in the United States on November 26, 1999, as a half-hour together with "Dear Ed". The series follows Ed (voiced by Matt Hill), Edd "Double D" (voiced by Samuel Vincent) and Eddy (voiced by Tony Sampson), three adolescent boys collectively known as "the Eds", unofficially led by Eddy, who live in a suburban cul-de-sac. In "Know it all Ed", the Eds find a box of turkey basters in the junkyard and re-sell them as imported Canadian squirt guns. Series creator Danny Antonucci directed the episode and co-wrote it with Jono Howard. It was met with positive reactions from reviewers. It is available as part of various DVD and digital releases.
