The first appearance of Eddie on the show was in "[[Barrel, Barrel... Who's Got the Barrel]]". In this episode, [[Bluster Kong]] steals the [[Crystal Coconut]] in an attempt to impress [[Candy Kong]] and promptly loses it in a barrel which is shipped to [[Funky's Flights]]. Funky takes the barrel on board his plane and ends up losing it in the [[Gorilla Glacier|White Mountains]], where it is found by Eddie. [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] come looking for the coconut and discover Eddie bashing it with his club; they then trade him a matchstick for it and leave. Due to complications involving Bluster Kong and [[General Klump]], the Kongs end losing the coconut once more and it briefly returns to Eddie's possession before it is taken by some [[Kritter]]s and given to [[King K. Rool]]. In the end, the Kongs eventually reclaim the coconut. Eddie shows up at Cranky's cabin and causes a ruckus.

The first appearance of Eddie on the show was in the episode "[[Barrel, Barrel, Who's Got the Barrel?]]". In this episode, [[Bluster Kong]], wanting to once again impress [[Candy Kong]] steals the [[Crystal Coconut]]. Unfortunately Bluster loses the coconut in a nearby barrel, before he can grab the barrel is shipped to [[Funky's Flights]]. Taking the barrel on board his plane, Funky ends losing in the [[Gorilla Glacier|White Mountains]], where it is found by Eddie.
==="Cranky's Tickle Tonic"===
In the episode "[[Cranky's Tickle Tonic]]", Eddie's loud banging of his club causes all the inhabitants of [[Donkey Kong Island|Kongo Bongo Island]] to be unable to sleep. To stop him, [[Cranky Kong]] and [[Funky Kong]] create a potion which gives Eddie a case of the chuckles, although King K. Rool (having come up the mountain to shut Eddie up himself) consumes the tonic instead. King K. Rool's laughing manages to cheer Eddie up and he stops banging his club.


[[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy]], looking for the coconut end up coming upon Eddie bashing repeatedly with his club. Tricking Eddie into giving them the coconut in exchange for a matchstick the Kongs take off leaving Eddie with his newfound "treasure".
==="I Spy With My Hairy Eye"===
The subsequent episodes have Eddie make minor appearances in the show. In "[[I Spy With My Hairy Eye]]", Eddie falls in love with K. Rool's [[Candy Clone]], and it is revealed that the raging responsible for his club-banging stems from loneliness.


Unfortunately due to complications involving Bluster Kong and [[Klump (character)|Klump]] the Kongs end losing the coconut, which ends up back in the possession of Eddie; who promptly loses it to several [[Kritter]]s who give it to their leader, [[King K. Rool]] (the Kongs luckily get it back though).
==="Ape-Nesia"===
{{Quote|Club! Club gone! Eddie club gone! Thieve leave! Thieve leave! Thieve leave [[Banana|snack]]!|Eddie the Mean Old Yeti|"[[Ape-Nesia]]"}}
Eddie briefly appears in the episode "[[Ape-Nesia]]" where he is seen complaining after an amnesia-struck [[Donkey Kong]] stole his favorite club, leaving only a banana.


Eddie's next appearance on the show would be in the episode "[[Cranky's Tickle Tonic]]". In this episode Eddie's club banging has gotten so loud that all the inhabitants of [[Donkey Kong Island|Kongo Bongo Island]] can't get any sleep. It seems Eddie's club banging stems from rage, so as a solution to everyone's problem [[Cranky Kong]] and [[Funky Kong]] create a potion which will give Eddie a case of the chuckles.
==="The Big Chill Out"===
In the episode "[[The Big Chill Out]]", Eddie is shown to be an employee for Donkey Kong's and Diddy Kong's [[Coconut Chill]] business.


Unfortunately the potion ends up being consumed by [[King K. Rool]] (who had come up the mountain to shut-up Eddie himself). The subsequent laughing fit K. Rool has, surprisingly makes even Eddie laugh.
==="Hooray for Holly-Kongo Bongo"===
In the episode "[[Hooray for Holly-Kongo Bongo]]", after Donkey Kong gets accused of stealing the Crystal Coconut, he gets sent to the [[Gorilla Glacier|White Mountains]]. DK is upset because he knows he "wouldn't hurt anyone", but he accidentally hits Eddie with the snowball he threw. After this, Eddie cheers DK up, making DK remember that he isn't the bad guy everyone had said he was.


After these two main appearances Eddie's role in the show was reduced slightly. In the episode "[[The Big Chill Out]]" Eddie is shown to be an employee for Donkey and Diddy's Coconut Chill business. Eddie also briefly appears in the episode "[[Ape-Nesia]]" where he is seen complaining after an amnesia struck [[Donkey Kong]] stole his favorite club.
==="Follow That Coconut"===
In "[[Follow That Coconut]]", it is revealed that Cranky, Eddie, and Bluster once discussed a genius soccer play, and when Cranky forgets it just before the annual soccer match between the Kongs and the Kremlings, he visits Eddie. The yeti had also forgotten the play, as well, but when Cranky persists, he remembers that he had written the play down in a journal, which he then shows to Cranky.


The episode "[[I Spy with My Ape Eye]]" shows that, like how Eddie's club-banging stems from his anger, Eddie's anger comes from loneliness. In the aforementioned episode Eddie ends up falling in love with K. Rool's [[Robot Candy Clone]]. In the episode "[[It's a Wonderful Life]]" (based on the movie of the same name) Eddie, oddly takes on the form of Donkey Kong's guardian angel.
==="Vote of Kong-Fidence"===
Eddie makes a minor appearance in "[[Vote of Kong-Fidence]]", where he is shown voting for the election of future ruler. During the episode, when Bluster is denied multiple votes, he becomes annoyed and thinks it is unfair that he is allowed to vote the same number of times as Eddie.


During the entire run of the show Eddie was voiced by Andrian Truss.
==="It's a Wonderful Life"===
Eddie makes another appearance in "[[It's a Wonderful Life]]." He appears only during Donkey Kong's dream, under the name "'''Eddie the Guardian Angel Yeti'''", after Donkey Kong wishes he does not want to exist.


==Trivia==
==="Message in a Bottle Show"===

Eddie the Mean Old Yeti's final appearance in the series is in "[[Message in a Bottle Show]]". In this episode, he is invited to a banquet to remember the times with [[Donkey Kong]]. At the banquet, Eddie announces that he thinks Donkey Kong is "cool," and then shows flashbacks of them together.


* It is thought by some that Eddie is based off the Manky Kongs, minor enemies from the ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' video-game. As like the Manky Kongs, Eddie has a bad temper and has unknown relations to the Kong family.
