Show
The Eric Andre Show premiered in the United States on May 20, 2012. It is an American surreal comedy television series on Cartoon Network’s late-night programming block, Adult Swim.
It has the nominal look and feel of a talk show, however, this show stands apart for no shortage of reasons – especially the fact that guest stars rarely know exactly what they are in for.
During an interview, Andre said:
“The show is a Google click away, and people just don’t do research. They’re coming in blind.”
His show is actually a mix of his out-of-the-box sense of humor and a parody of public access talk shows.
The pilot was directed by Kitao Sakurai and Andrew Barchilon and was co-hosted with Hannibal Buress. Furthermore, the pilot was filmed “over a few days” in 2009 in an abandoned bodega in Brooklyn.
Andre told IndieWire:
“It is like pure Id, the most creative freedom I’ll ever have.”
Eric later added:
“There’s no rules. It can totally be as surreal or absurd or nonlinear as it wants. If you hooked a tube up to my brain and fed it into a television, it would be the show, for sure.”
Guest stars who appear throughout his show include:
- Asa Akira;
- John Kricfalusi;
- Jerry Seinfeld;
- Jimmy Kimmel;
- Russell Brand;
- Lauren Conrad;
- George Clooney;
- Jodie Sweetin;
- The Hulk;
- Lorenzo Lamas;

His show has been criticized by many for being immature and too childish.
While filming season 1 of his show, Eric crashed a town hall meeting during the mayor’s speech. Andre rushed up to the podium shouting:
“Vote for me for class president and I’ll put beer in the water fountains and cameras in the girls’ locker rooms. Don’t taze me bro!”
His actions booked him for 24 hours in jail.
At the conclusion of the 1st season, Christopher R. Weingarten of SPIN described his show as:
“possibly the weirdest (and most engrossing) ten minutes on contemporary television.”
Christopher R. Weingarten continued:
“the home-brewed humanity of Fernwood 2 Night, the surrealist Möbius strips of Tim & Eric, the Dada puckishness of Tom Green and the kinetic pranksterism of Jackass, [Eric is] ultimately an Andy Kaufman for the Four Loko generation.”
The first four seasons of the show have been released on YouTube, iTunes, and Amazon Video.
