Mapping Out: Peach Creek As A Whole; It's no longer about the school anymore

The sign is officially supposed to be there, but I guess they get rid of it when it doesn't fit into the shot. In that second shot, it would be by where the "NEW!" is, so I guess they felt it would be stupid to include such a tiny portion of the sign. I've never noticed the sign disappearing before, though, that's interesting. =O

That bus turnaround always has a street coming from its right end, but sometimes it gets cut in half so that it's a normal street with just a tiny half-circle as the bus loop. This happens in 'Run Ed Run' (I think, when the school bus departs) and 'Pick an Ed' (there should be a picture of this in the first post). Also, the bus turnaround bothers me, because according to 'Hanky Panky Hullabaloo', the buses drive down the left side of the turnaround road and then it makes them leave by driving on the right, when they should go down the right side and come out the left... It kinda bothers me seeing buses on it at all, though, because the main characters only use buses for field trips (I'm including swimming class as a field trip), so it seems like buses wouldn't be that big of a deal. But I guess I need to remind myself that there are invisible students..

Here's something I found in an old HPH review, that appears to be the original concept art for the school, complete with its incorrect label from HPH, claiming that it's a high school:

Since I'm bringing this up, I want to add that I wonder where the high school is and if it would look identical to the junior high, since HPH technically did show us an EEnE high school (albeit a simple mistake about the name of the school). Episodes that include buses confirm that the junior high DOES interact with the high school, because that's where they get their buses apparently (which suggests that the high school is further away and thus has more of a need for buses than the junior high does), so it makes me curious about it.

That's true. Tomorrow I'll see if I can take a few more screenshots if I find any episodes where the sign is missing or misplaced.

Yeah, I understand why that bothers you. When the kids are boarding the bus in "All Eds Are Off" after the swimming class gravy incident, do we know if the bus is stationed at this turnaround, or if it's somewhere else? Maybe you could tell by looking through the bus windows, or when the door is open as Kevin, Rolf, and the Eds board. If not, that's okay. XD

That shot from the HPH is in surprisingly high quality, wow. Where did you get that shot?

Yeah, I have always been curious about the high school vs. the middle school. I'm trying to think… we don't see a high school ever in the show, do we? Not even a mention of it, as I recall. Very curious indeed.

That bus was never shown departing from or arriving at the school, it was only shown at the community pool. Still, the community pool seemed to have its own kind of bus rotation line, since the parking lot seems to just be a cement block in the road, separating the street from the small parking/dropoff area.

Well, I'm pretty sure it's concept art and not a screenshot, because the school's sign doesn't have a message on it above "Go Cobblers!" like it should. That's probably why it's so high quality. I found it in an old review of the episode, I'll hunt it down for you...

Ummm... I've searched everything I could think of and can't find the article. Oh well, glad I saved the image, then. XD

Well, unless you count the school in HPH being mislabeled as a High School, then no, we don't. I kinda count that, though, because I'm desperate. XD The school buses in 'All Eds Are Off' and 'Run Ed Run' (I don't think there's any other episodes with PC school buses..) retain the "Peach Creek H.S." label from HPH, so I like to believe that means that the buses really do come from the high school instead of the junior high having its own buses. Lemon Brook Junior High did have its own school buses, and if they could bother to edit the bus design for the LBJH buses, then I think they could've done the same for the PCHS buses, so I feel the PCHS buses are canon.

What goes around comes around I supposed. This thread started with the school, it's gone back to the school ;D.

The location of the school's sign has probably been the most consistant part of the whole school. I think in Kirk's screenshot it's supposed to be a little left of the "New" mark too but in retrospect the width of the road and bus turnaround is unknown. It looks small in scenes like the first few seconds of HPH and in that drawing but in eps like Too Smart For His Own it looks abit wider (or is that only me? lol).

At first I used to think that the school was home to both the PCJH and PCHS until the number of students increased and the High School moved out. Which I'd put as the reason the buses are still left, the lockers and various locations have moved around within the school and how the parking lot for bikes in 'Mission Ed-Possible' shrunk (though 'Out With The Old, In With The Ed' ruins this idea). Should the last statement be true I'd put that as the reason why the basketball court with the dodgeball wall (TOE) suddenly changed into a few hoops next to the parking lot (TSFHOE).

Lol, my first post in here in a while and I haven't brought anything but mindless theories :sweatdrop.

It actually looks wider to me in HPH, probably because it's a close-up. Whenever we see it in aerial shots I feel like it looks a lot smaller. I could be mistaken, though, I probably just expect it to be as big as the cul-de-sac since they're essentially the same kind of road.

I don't think that's possible, because PCJH is already being doubled up with the elementary school so that Sarah and Jimmy can attend classes in the same building as the Eds. They had already corrected the sign by the time BHH came out, so I think HPH's high school sign is just an error on the artists' part. HPH would technically take place after season 5 anyway, so the school would need to turn into a high school during winter for that to work, but season 6 and the movie show that the school is still a junior high after that fall. Also, your basketball theory can't work because 'Truth or Ed' comes after 'Too Smart For His Own Ed', so the court would've expanded, not shrunk.

Good to see you back in the discussion, Driveus! :)

I do find that school name error in the HPH fascinating, so the HPH was the only time PCJH was called PCH?

Anyway, Driveus told me I could change the subject if I wanted so I will. :D I'd like to show you some of those screenshots I promised last night, these ones being from "Cool Hand Ed" (one of my favorite episodes, by the way).

You can see the front of the school in this shot, and though that sign in the middle of the turnaround isn't visible, I guess it was a little over to the left.

Posted Image

In this one, when the plane had just taken off, you can see the bus turnaround in the top left corner, and it appears the sign is there, yes?

Posted Image


These two shots are some extra ones I took, because I noticed a few things in each of them that I wanted to ask you about.

In the bottom left and bottom right parts of this shot, you can see that there are two roads behind the athletic field of the school. Do you have any idea where these roads go to, or if they are seen ever again?

Posted Image

In this famous shot in "Cool Hand Ed", you can see behind the sports field too, but the roads don't appear to be there like in the previous screenshot. Also, you can see a cul-de-sac in the background of this image, and do you think that's the Rethink Ave cul-de-sac?

I want to say yes, but I think MisEdventures also mistook it for a high school.

And yeah, I think the sign's just off-screen in that first picture.

The road on the right is the bus turnaround. In 'Cool Hand Ed', the pavement in front of the gym building seems to be replaced by the athletic field and a more spacious bus turnaround, as you can see in this other shot you posted:
Posted Image

'A Town Called Ed' follows this idea, but doesn't get rid of the space in front of the gym building:
Posted Image

The road on the left is the main road in front of the school/in front of the bus turnaround. It is what Kevin biked on to get to the peach orchard in BPS.

Here's another shot that includes a road to the peach orchard:

The roads aren't there because that shot is looking behind the school, while your previous shot was at the front of the school. And that is definitely Rethink Ave (the whole point of the shot is that they are seeing their homes, and in higher quality versions of the screenshot you can see it's the official house colors), even though that is not a canon placement for where the cul-de-sac is in relation to the school. In that shot, the school is apparently where the junkyard should be, which is CLOSE to where it is most-officially placed, but that shot does not match up with any of the routes the Eds have taken home so I wouldn't say it's canon that the cul-de-sac is behind the school. I think if they kept going the way they were going at the end of 'May I Have This Ed', the Eds would go through the woods next to the junkyard, and then be able to go home from there the same way they did in 'A Town Called Ed'.

Here's some MIHTE shots since they kinda include the road and I believe they're the only episode prior to the movie to give a clear shot of what's across from the school.

For the sake of our sanity, I just whipped up what I feel is the most logical depiction of the PCJH property and neighborhood, based on all the different ways it's been shown.

I like how you or whoever made this image combined the shots from that moment in the BPS into this one picture! I've wondered a lot about this, and that one curved road up in the top right corner is fascinating to me. Great picture, thanks for posting it.

The first one here is actually every interesting, because it appears no building surrounds the school. However, in that BPS picture, there are several buildings nearby, and several roads too. Which one is canon, the shot with no roads and other buildings, or the ones with other roads and buildings?

Yeah, I put it together. XD That road leads through the peach orchard, cow pasture, sunflower patch, and crop squares to the Gag Factory. I'm more curious about what would be on the road if they had kept going straight. I think it's the road the bus took to the Community Pool in 'All Eds Are Off'. I am curious about why the curved road stops being paved and turns into a dirt road like the lane, though...

I love that the Peach Creek Fire Department made an appearance. :)

It's barely visible, but the main road that Kev was biking on is actually visible in the first shot. It's the dark grey thing between Eddy's right knee and Ed's left hand that is being partially blocked by Edd's fallen body. There's also a fence on the left, which could either be for the athletic field or for the other road. The way this shot is framed, it is completely possible for all the BPS buildings to simply be off-screen, as long as there are no other buildings next to the purple building on the corner. The hill the Eds are on could also be blocking the purple building, especially because the snow is higher on the left side of the hill, preventing the street below from being seen. I consider BPS more canon than anything else, though, because it was focused on developing the Eds' world and makes everything a lot more detailed and realistic than the normal episodes' usual portrayal of every single location being surrounded by NOTHING but woods.

True, it would most definitely be nice to see what that road leads to, but just be glad we were able to see that much. XD

Yeah, I also think that the BPS should be considered canon, and it really showed us a lot of new places and better views of places we'd seen before. The level of detail in the BPS is very good, isn't it?

Was there anything in BPS that you would not consider to be canon?

Update: Earlier I said that Misedventures referred to the school as Peach Creek High, but I just watched the gameplay on Youtube, and the school was correctly labeled as Peach Creek Junior High. The sign in the bus turnaround looked as though it may have still been labeled Peach Creek High, but I didn't get a good look at it.

Yeah, I'm kinda glad when they leave things vague, because if they tried to put more detail into it, it'd probably retcon previous information and destroy my theories. XP

Hmmmm... Well, I don't think it should be canon the way they didn't have the track on the right side of the gym building... And I think the way they set up the electrical towers doesn't really match up with the ones by the cul-de-sac. The ones in the desert seem to be going in the wrong direction and the ones by the factory don't seem to have towers on both sides. I also think the distance the Eds walk at night looks a lot longer than any plausible distance you can piece together from the other kids' paths. Basically, it's just little things that bugged me when I was trying to make my map.

Judging from how the Eds went directly south of the cul-de-sac, the towers should be parallel to the Eds here, not forming a wall behind them. However, I suppose this could be canon if the towers were to be parallel UNTIL that point, at which the towers change direction and turn right, to better service the neighboring town (since the undeveloped land wouldn't need power). I've determind the desert to be through/behind the 'Cool Hand Ed' mountains, so I guess this could work...

As for my other complaint: The official map shows a row of towers on both sides of the cul-de-sac, and other episodes have clarified that these go from the Gag Factory down to the 'Cool Hand Ed' mountains/the desert. However, w only ever get to see one row of towers at a time, it seems.

Posted Image

In the first two shots, the towers follow the canon design of where the towers should be (heading into the field down to the cul-de-sac), but in the 3rd and 4th shots (which happen to show the factory in its silhouette form that we normally see in the show) the towers go in the opposite direction. In the last shot, there are no towers at all.

Well, unless there was proposed development on this land, because I think the electrical towers are one of the first things placed in a developing community. But yeah, if this land was to remain undeveloped, then there would be no need for the towers.

Wow, I didn't even notice that, but now that you mention it and have given the screenshots, I see what you mean. I recall at the very beginning of "Hand Me Down Ed", you can see the electrical towers surrounding the cul-de-sac quite well as the boomerang gets first thrown. I don't pay much attention to the electrical towers, but I recall seeing them at the beginning of the aforementioned episode for whatever reason. They just stood out. I think I also can distinctly recall electrical towers in "Run Ed Run" when the bus and the Eds are headed toward the jawbreaker factory. Perhaps I should go hunting down some screenshots…

There are a few episodes like 'Hand Me Down Ed' that show overhead shots of the cul-de-sac, which are generally identical to the official map, so those are usually good at including both rows of towers. The towers usually don't appear unless the Eds are close to them. 'Every Which Way but Ed' opens with a shot of Edd's house that surprisingly includes the towers behind it (his electrical explosion also carries down the line of towers so I guess it was just for the sake of foreshadowing), and 'Boom Boom Out Goes the Ed' is also surprisingly realistic and has the towers in view from the cul-de-sac, most likely to remind us that the power's out. Like you said, there were towers alongside the road to the jawbreaker factory in 'Run Ed Run' (maybe this is because the towers turn right at the desert?), and in the distance of all the Eds' scams in 'Once Bitten Twice Ed'. There's an interesting shot in 'Pain in the Ed', where you can see the towers from the woods where Eddy tries to drop a brick on the violin. There's an overhead shot I love from Eddy's waterslide in 'Out With the Old...' where you can see the towers and part of the street the cul-de-sac is off of (but I don't think they bothered to draw any houses or buildings on it). ...And now we have a list of my favorite electrical tower moments. 8D

I was looking through pieces of the movie to get those screenshots, and I couldn't get this one shot, but I noticed that I HATED IT. XD When the camera follows the snakes into the sky and then down to the farmland, the farmland we are shown does not match up with any part of the movie's map, not even with the following shot. There's no sunflower patch or cow pasture, there's too many crop fields and roads, and it doesn't even show us where Kevin is, it seemed like he was on a different road. HOWEVER, this shot does briefly show a stop sign, one of the few stop signs seen in the show. =P

Anyway, here are two screenshots from the beginning of "Hand Me Down Ed" just for fun. :)

This one shows the cul-de-sac with the electrical towers, which appear to go north toward the factory way back behind the cul-de-sac.

The towers look extra detailed in that episode. Sometimes they don't even draw wires on them. XD I think they copied that background for the opening shot of the first cut scene of MisEdventures.

Actually, looking at that first screenshot, it looks like there would be trees in the middle of the road. I guess the trunks of those weird trees aren't visible in the shot, though, so the artists just needed to fill space.

And here's a screenshot of that place that doesn't fit into EEnE geography, which i like to call CROP WORLD:

Posted Image

The stop sign is the little white thing in the bottom left corner. Also, while taking this screenshot, I noticed for the first time ever I noticed that odd, black-outlined thing on the right side of this shot. After squinting at several different frames, I've determined that it's a barn and a silo. There was a red barn and silo between the cow pasture and the sunflower field, so I wonder if this is another farmer's land or if this one piece of property has multiple barns and silos. And even though it makes no sense, I'm still trying to fit this into continuity, but it just doesn't add up. There's no room for any of this stuff, unless maybe it was actually on Kevin's RIGHT side when he was biking to the factory, to explain why there aren't sunflowers and cows, like there should be if this was to his left.

Yeah, that's why that episode stood out from the other episodes that showed the electrical towers.

These are some screenshots from "Run Ed Run" that show the electrical towers, you might like to see.

Also, while taking this screenshot, I noticed for the first time ever I noticed that odd, black-outlined thing on the right side of this shot. After squinting at several different frames, I've determined that it's a barn and a silo. There was a red barn and silo between the cow pasture and the sunflower field, so I wonder if this is another farmer's land or if this one piece of property has multiple barns and silos.


Hmm… to me that didn't really appear as a barn and silo, but you could be right. To me it looks like some excavator because there appears to be a hole or something beneath that tall structure you made out as a silo. Too bad there's not another shot of this mysterious place back there, because it sure would be interesting to see it in closer detail.

Seeing the agricultural land in that picture reminded me of what we see in "Run Ed Run", when the Eds hit the sky. This screenshot shows what is below them on the ground, such as quite a bit of land that I'm sure you've tried to map out:

Also, those creeks/rivers that merge together are fascinating. What do you think?

I wish they had put more detail into this location... I guess it fits in with my theory that these are where the electrical towers go after they turn in the desert, though.

Well, maybe not a barn, I guess it looks more like a ranch house for the farmer... I was wondering what the hole-looking spot was, but I was kinda assuming it was a tiny crop square, an animal pen, a mud pile (since Rolf's farm has some patches where the grass is replaced by a similarly designed mud/dirt area), or an oddly outlined shadow. The screenshot I gave you is positioned in the way that shows the most of the land, but there's a snake partially obscuring the building in it, so maybe that's why it looks like machinery to you? I wouldn't really know what these things look like, though.

It reminded me of 'Run Ed Run' too! I was so excited because I thought it was a continuity moment, but now I realize that these two croppy locations are on opposite ends of the cul-de-sac. So I guess the best conclusion to draw from this is that what we see in that 'Run Ed Run' shot is a pretty full map of the town next to PC that isn't Lemon Brook, because it doesn't even try to map the familiar cul-de-sac area. It puts two cul-de-sacs across from each other instead of next to each other. This town looks far less industrialized than Peach Creek (especially if its lower half is apparently a desert), so I guess its specializes in farming.

As for my conclusion about my BPS shot, I guess it's best to say that it was to Kevin's right and is part of a farming district in Peach Creek (PC's pretty diverse, it's got farmland, a fully developed business area, AND is in the process of developing its residential district; the next town over appears to be satisfied with just being a farming community [...aside from jawbreakers for some reason]).

I'm glad you took that screenshot because I haven't given it a good look in a long time, I forgot about the connecting waterways! I suppose that could be where the creek goes.
