| The Eric Andre Show | comment |
The Eric Andre Show is a "talk show" that airs on [adult swim], created, written and hosted by actor, comedian, and all-around crazy person Eric André, with various fellow comedians as co-hosts. We use the term "talk show" loosely since it barely begins to capture the essence of what this show truly is — imagine a live-action Space Ghost Coast to Coast, but a hundred times crazier.note Andre has even noted Space Ghost as one of his influences for coming up with the idea for his show.The crux of the show is in its interviews of celebrity guests (who are totally unaware of what they're supposed to expect 90% of the time), engineered to be as bizarre as possible. During the interviews, Eric will almost always go off on unrelated tangents, just not pay attention at all while random and absurd things happen, spring crass and explicit jokes on the fly to gross out his captive audience, or just go berserk without warning and attack whatever thing in the room makes him the angriest at the moment, be it furniture, equipment, or person.The show's primary co-host for its first four seasons was Hannibal Buress, who helped co-create the show with Andre. After leaving the show early in its fifth season, the show has rotated through a variety of co-hosts, including Hannibal's "clone" Blannibal,note Played by actor and musician James Hazley comedian Felipe Esparza, and "Reese Witherspoon."note Played by comedian Kyle Bostic in a wigThese co-hosts only add to the surrealism of the show, tending to fill the roles of Cloudcuckoolander and Straight Man simultaneously. Further chaos is induced through recurring elements including sketches, candid camera street pranks and monologues courtesy of Eric, and the show's set. The set is specifically designed to keep the guests not exactly relaxed, in ways such as putting a heater in the guest's seat beforehand or spraying water all over the guest. Eric also has a habit of wrecking the set at the start of every episode (after which it gets magically fixed by stagehands).The show premiered in 2012 and ran for four seasons until fall 2016, with a TV special in Paris later airing in early 2018. In late 2019, a fifth season was officially announced; it premiered on October 25, 2020 and ran until November 22. In late 2022, the show was renewed for a sixth season, which premiered on June 4, 2023. | |

Artistic License – Gun Safety | |
| The Eric Andre Show / int_10134c97 | comment |
Artistic License – Gun Safety: Of all the places you'd expect to see this, this one is impressively averted in the famous "Who killed Hannibal?" gag. Eric doesn't point the gun at anything besides Hannibal, and after running the mag dry, he reloads with his finger off the trigger and the muzzle pointed downwards. Eric Andre practicing proper gun safety while gunning his friend down for no reason is much funnier than him being careless in doing so. | |

Candid Camera Prank | |
| The Eric Andre Show / int_1787e703 | comment |
Candid Camera Prank: A lot of them, including but not limited to Eric having sex on a bed in a store, pretending to scalp himself, setting up a smoothie stand and sticking his hand in the blender, dressing up as a construction worker and faking being electrocuted, destroying a "NYPD car", dragging around a suitcase with a crying woman trapped inside, breaking into a dojo to deliver a "pizza ball", taking pictures of a fashion model while wearing cyclops prosthetics, becoming a black scientologist, destroying an art gallery, running from a bunch of guys dressed as him, pretending to be blind and swinging a walking stick around a lightbulb shop, turning his body into a Froot Loops communion, and making out with a cop who has just apprehended him. Some of the most popular ones have to be "Ranch It Up!" and "Bird Up!". Even Kraft Punk got in on the fun with his prank show Kraft Punk'd (or Kraft Dunk'd). | |

Always Someone Better | |
| The Eric Andre Show / int_19d1c1ae | comment |
Always Someone Better: Hannibal is repeatedly shown to be much more rich and successful than Eric. For example, during the time Hannibal was the main host of the show he opens the episode with a one liner that not only reduces the whole audience into hysterics, but also causes him to spontaneously win several awards as "Best Talk Show Host" and "Best Talk Show Co-Host". Eric is understandably peeved at his success. | |

| The Eric Andre Show / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: Pete Wentz appears for a few seconds at the end of the Lorenzo Lamas episode to deliver An Aesop and walk away. Chris Rock briefly appears near the end of the Season 3 finale as the director of the "Bird Up!" segments. Sebastian Bach barges into the Demi Lovato interview to plant his leg on the desk and ask the visibly confused woman if she likes his hair, before leaving moments later. John Kricfalusi shows up in the New Year's Halloween Spooktacular, doodling on a large canvas in the background. Adam Conover of Adam Ruins Everything appears in one of the Season 5 intros, explaining how the set being destroyed by Eric isn't real and only designed to be destroyed. Eric then proceeds to throw him over the desk and beat him to death. Lizzo also appears to put her own spin on "Bird Up!", performing a segment called "Bird Down" in Eric's place. | |

Teleporter Accident: In one episode, Eric gets "one of those Star Trek transporters". He is wiping his face when transported, and comes out with his hand fused to his face. Hannibal has the person operating the transporter send Eric back to his chair, and he comes out as a shapeless blob. | |

And then "Hannibal's dad" enters pantsless, calmly breaks it up and hugs Thundercat, much to Thundercat's dismay. | |

Stylistic Suck | |
| The Eric Andre Show / int_415b3315 | comment |
Stylistic Suck: Everything about the show, especially in the earlier seasons. The cameras seem to come from a different decade each, mostly from the seventies to the early nineties, and the sets are made to look as cheap and fragile as possible. As seasons have gone by the sets have become more and more elaborate, but also more and more gaudy and ugly. The recurring "Bird Up!" segment is this in spades. The entire premise is that Eric is going to be green-screened out, which rarely if ever actually happens. Not only that, but the editing is frenetic and all over the place. And to further drive the point home, Eric proclaims that it is "the worst show on television" during the beginning of every bit. Inverted during the segment before the Hannibal Buress Show, where Hannibal is seen at his mansion and the production quality is hilariously improved, featuring color grading and dolly shots. Makes for good contrast with Eric's trashy apartment and static camera angles. | |

Trash the Set | |
| The Eric Andre Show / int_4ff6f484 | comment |
Trash the Set: At the beginning of every episode, Eric is seen rushing in and breaking everything (while also doing... other things). The set is always rebuilt within literally seconds—the net effect is to make Eric seem like a soul condemned, Sisyphus-like, eternally to roll a talk show off the edge of a cliff and then host it again. Exaggerated in the Season 2 Finale when the entire episode is basically Eric breaking the set. | |

Chewing the Scenery: More like "violently destroy the scenery with a baseball bat" (which, on this show, is often a Literal Metaphor).There will always be at least one person per segment (sometimes Eric, sometimes a random stagehand or extra) who is living LARGE and doesn't care who sees it. Hannibal's brother is probably the best example. | |

Costume Evolution | |
| The Eric Andre Show / int_812dd60 | comment |
Costume Evolution: In the first season, Eric wore a causal outfit consisting of a light grey t-shirt, black jeans, and a dark-grey/brown suit blazer. The next season had him wear a light grey suit with a green tie with a woven basket pattern on it. He wears the same suit in season three, but with a different blue and black tie and a hairstyle made to resemble Katt Williams. In the fourth season, he wears the grey suit once more, but with a white pleated dress shirt and a gold bowtie; he's also brought back his afro, but in a more clumped, dread-like style and now has severely uncut fingernails. In the fifth season, almost all of his body hair is shaved off and he's gained considerable weight, as well as being far tanner; he now wears a gaudy cream colored suit with floral patterns etched on to the blazer. | |

Chubby Chaser: Hannibal appears to be this, as he was once confronted in the middle of the Asa Akira interview by an ex who was fairly hefty. On another occasion, he was distracted from an urgent phone call with Eric by an extremely heavy Big Beautiful Woman taking off her robe in front of him (to reveal a gangster-themed Looney Tunes novelty t-shirt). The same woman would later show up (wearing the same Looney Tunes t-shirt, no less) in the Ryan Kwanten interview to accuse Hannibal of cheating on her and then make out with him for almost the entire rest of the segment. | |

Little People Are Surreal: Quite a few dwarves show up on the show, to Lynchian effect.

One poor little guy showed up in the opening sequence of one segment dressed as a leprechaun, where Eric beat the shit out of him for no apparent reason. | |

Overly-Long Gag: Hannibal explaining to Harry Shum Jr. what he'd want his Fatality to be if he were a Mortal Kombat character. It's basically Hannibal standing still and repeatedly pantomiming throwing an apple. The "Wheel of Prizes", which keeps spinning for nearly a full minute and only stops turning when Sinbad physically intervenes and grabs it. (It lands on "Move to North Korea".) During one opening, Eric grabs a random scientist and starts punching him for a solid thirty seconds. It takes so long that even the house band eventually stops playing in exasperation. In the middle of asking Chris Jericho how he got his start, Eric starts spasming and moaning. This lasts for the entire rest of the segment while the set grows increasingly chaotic and poor Chris just stares ahead with a frozen expression of stunned disbelief the whole time. | |

Drop the Cow: Happens whenever that episode's guest has become just a bit too comfortable. Usually arriving in the form of Eric or a random stagehand beating the other up or getting shot. Jack McBrayer notably gets a gauntlet of these during his interview; a man in white facepaint bursts through Eric's desk and yells at Jack about prices, a row of firecrackers detonate on-stage, and someone begins primally screaming backstage that leaves poor Jack a nervous wreck for the remainder of the interview. Joey Fatone, for his part, had one happen right at the end of his interview, when a motorcyclist suddenly crashed into Eric's desk. | |

A good example is the segment where Hannibal briefly hosts the show in Eric's absence, where, when after he wins the award for Best Talk Show Host, seemingly the entire crew hoists him on their shoulders to celebrate, with the exception of the house band, who is crowded around the bassist that Hannibal gunned down during the opening sequence, as he lies dying on the floor, thrashing weakly. | |

Casanova Wannabe: Eric frequently hits on his attractive female guests, but they're inevitably far too distracted by the absurd, vulgar, or disturbing madness going on around them to respond well to his advances. Notably averted with Amber Rose, as she actually briefly hooked up with him for a while in real life after her "interview". Hannibal, for once, made a few lame attempts at flirting with Krysten Ritter during her interview, which got her to crack up. | |

Catchphrase | |
| The Eric Andre Show / int_b01abe4f | comment |
Catchphrase: "Time for some RANCH!" "You guys are watchin' Bird Up!, the worst show on television!" During interviews, Eric likes to say "I want you to have sex with my wife." and "You seem like the kind of woman who likes Doritos." as a quick way of confusing the person he's speaking to. | |

Everyone Has Standards | |
| The Eric Andre Show / int_b4a6ae4c | comment |
Everyone Has Standards: In the "Who Can Hold the Most Babies?" sketch, Eric is clearly just as uncomfortable as the people in the sketch and completely breaks character, saying, "I hate this bit" after he unintentionally makes a child cry. Eric and Hannibal are both always visibly annoyed and disgusted by Kraft Punk's antics whenever he appears, and, by season 4, try to kick him out before he gets to do anything as soon as he shows up. In the Drives Like Crazy prank "Goober Driver" in season 6, Eric quickly drops his act when a passenger attempts to actually escape the car by openeing the door while the car is still speeding. | |

Take That! | |
| The Eric Andre Show / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: Eric throws a vicious sidewinder at the Thatcher administration (and by extension, those who consider her a "feminist role model") during the Mel B interview. When Eric disappeared after the intro in one episode, Hannibal got up to the mike and started doing stand up, targeting Woody Allen for marrying his former step-child. In a interview with Aubrey Peeples, he asked why she retweeted the quote: "I believe in a white supremacy until blacks are educated to a point of responsibility", said by none other than John Wayne. And yes, the Duke actually said that. In a season 4 episode, Eric tried appealing to Middle American viewers by having Jeff Dunham's "racist puppets" appear, which were just knock-offs of Achmed, Jose Jalapeno, and Sweet Daddy Dee, but without their funny gimmicks. | |

Mind Screw: Constantly and Played for Laughs. Some segments seem particularly Lynchian, such as "Savion Glover", who just ran around screaming with a rotisserie chicken taped around his head and over his face while wearing a wig and breaking things, and... tap dancing? The Bird Up! episode might be the crowning example of this trope in the series; featuring the regular studio segment getting completely overridden by the Bird Up! sketch, which in turn gets repeatedly overridden by other Bird Up! sketches, which get overridden by other Bird Up! sketches and... you get the picture. | |

Doppelgänger: James Van Der Beek and Pauly D's interviews have Eric summon identically-dressed doppelgangers of him, Hannibal, and James and Pauly themselves, who stand next to and copy everything that their respective original does. The Jillian Barberie-Michaels interview also has a similar premise, only it involved Eric ripping apart his desk to reveal a pair of dwarves dressed as Eric and Jillian conducting an interview, complete with miniaturized furniture. | |

Shout-Out | |
| The Eric Andre Show / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Many to Twin Peaks in the second season, such as the change to red curtains and the statue from the Black Lodge, and a segment where Eric empties two whole mags of ammunition into Hannibal mid-monologue, looks straight at the camera, and asks "Who killed Hannibal?", after which it segues into a parody of the Twin Peaks intro. One prank has Eric crashing a public basketball game while dressed as a werewolf, which is a reference to the movie Teen Wolf. In one of the openings, Eric ends up in space and suffers Explosive Decompression (wherein his eyes and tongue pop out) like in Total Recall (1990). The stage band in Season 4 are dressed up like the staff at the Overlook Hotel. At one point the singer appears covered in blood and asks Eric "It's a great party, isn't it?", mirroring a scene from the film. One sketch is just called "Seinfeld". It's...not quite that. Lance Reddick gives a double shout-out to Levar Burton's two most famous roles in his interview by wearing a VISOR and Combadge over chains and a slave outfit. Then in season five, Levar Burton appears in a cop uniform as a shout-out to Lance Reddick's own role. "Battlefield Earth should have been a Tyler Perry movie!" In episode 9, when Hannibal suddenly disappears and Eric believes him to be dead, the show goes into a parody of the pottery scene from Ghost (1990). One of the openings has Eric do the famous "pull the chain and get drenched" shot from Flashdance. Hannibal shooting Eric and a bird emerging from the gunshot wound is a reference to Jodorowsky's Holy Mountain. In the first intro of the fifth season, Eric crushes a stagehand's head in the same way as the memetic head-crushing in Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky. The ending of the 50th episode is one to the ending of The Muppet Movie. | |

Refuge in Audacity: The show runs on this. Expect constant speechlessness from guests and witnesses to street segments. To cite one particular example: Eric Andre actually put up Seth Rogen's cell phone number for people to call, despite Seth's repeated demands that he don't. According to his appearance on Hot Ones, one episode was supposed to have an interview where a transgender couple were having sex just off-camera, with Eric and Hannibal acting like it was perfectly normal, and after that got shot down he then suggested having a trasngender woman taking a dump out on the street. | |

Unusually Uninteresting Sight: A major component of the show's humor is Eric and Hannibal's complete non-reactions to the antics of his guests, including, on one occasion, a fire. Occasionally, random citizens will completely ignore whatever surreal stunt Eric is pulling during the street segments and respond to whatever question he's asking with a completely straight face and serious tone. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Only two guests walked off the set during their interviews: T.I. walked off after seeing a random crewmember with no underwear on arrive just as he was about to suggest something to Eric. Lauren Conrad noped out of there after seeing Eric suddenly vomitnote He actually spit out hot oatmeal he put in his mouth when she wasn't looking. and then play with his vomit. Tichina Arnold came very close to walking off the set when Eric brought out a coffee cup filled entirely with cockroaches. Eric and Hannibal have had one of these moments too with the grizzly bear interview; the two immediately ran for the hills the moment the bear started manhandling Eric's desk after having ripped up the couch next to it. | |

Breakout Character: Occasionally parodied with Hannibal, who has at various points entered the stage to raucous applause (compared to the tepid claps Eric gets), won the award for best talk show while filling in as host for Eric, received his own spin-off series where he travels to Japan, and had his reality show Snail Down!, a competitor to Eric's Bird Up!, get greenlit for several seasons within seconds of premiering. Of course, in the cases of both the latter examples, his shows end up getting cancelled before getting past the opening credits. | |

Who Writes This Crap?!: After trying two pretzels in "Hannibal's Pretzels", Hannibal turns to face someone off-camera and incredulously asks "What is this segment?" | |

Despair Event Horizon | |
| The Eric Andre Show / int_dda99fa8 | comment |
Despair Event Horizon: He often intends to inflict this on his interviewees; of note is Sinbad during the "Wheel of Prizes" segment, in which he becomes so tired of the never-ending wheel spinning* Eric mentioned behind the scenes that the wheel actually spun for about thirty minutes before Sinbad intervened he ends up stopping the wheel himself on "Move to North Korea", just to make it end. Rory Scovel crosses it while showing us how to cook like a pro, going into a nihilistic monologue about The Nothing After Death before crushing glass into his face, pushing the table to the floor, and collapsing on the floor while crying. | |

Kubrick Stare: The trombonist/singer in Season 4 has a habit of doing this directly into the camera. It's appropriate, considering that the band in season 4 is an homage to The Shining. | |

Ham-to-Ham Combat: Eric's interview with Nardwuar the Human Serviette was dedicated solely to see who could get on the other's nerves more and make them break character. YouTube commenters have compared it to various things including a battle between two Greek gods, and an unstoppable force (Eric) meeting an immovable object (Nardwuar). | |

Bound and Gagged: Unlike other celebrity guests, Rick Springfield is wheeled in, apparently kidnapped, tied up and with a cloth over his mouth (which is taken off afterwards), solely so Eric and Hannibal can beat him up. He remains like this for the last segment of the episode. | |

Heroism Motive Speech: After being insulted by Eric, Hannibal retorts with an emotional speech about his childhood and what his brothers taught him growing up, while a family video (possibly of Hannibal?) is overlayed on top. Finally, he punctuates the speech with "And... *beat*... you a bitch-ass nigga." | |

Running Gag | |
| The Eric Andre Show / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Eric seems to like bringing up famous sex offenders and Scientology at awkward times. The sliding doors used to enter the set seem to become more and more difficult to push open as time goes on. Jokes about Barack Obama, who Eric insulted in the New Year's Special. On at least two other occasions, he pulled out a (photoshopped) sexually explicit picture of Obama to the horror of that episode's female guest. Eric's "notecards", which contain obviously untrue and increasingly offensive "facts" about his guests (and in close-up shots are usually revealed to contain just scribbles or no information whatsoever). The voiceclip of that guy screaming "YES" in almost every episode. Having random old men introduced to black cast members and guests (like Questlove, Tyler, the Creator, and Hannibal himself) as their "real fathers." Said old men in question are usually extremely white. Kraft Punk randomly appearing to plug his latest (invariably terrible) hidden camera prank show. | |
