And the staple of any late-night talk show, the celebrity interview, resembles an episode of Inside the Actors Studio, if Inside the Actors Studio were hosted by Buffalo Bill. There are bizarre man-on-the-street sketches edited with an Adderall-induced ferocity. There is a “monologue” in the sense that Andre leaves his desk, approaches a microphone, and makes sound come out of his mouth his co-host, comedian Hannibal Buress, is like a medicated Ed McMahon, either heckling Andre or half asleep, checking his phone. But each eleven-minute episode begins with the host maniacally destroying his own set. If you’re unsure of what’s happening, the show doesn’t wait for you to catch up - a few seconds later, Andre is shot in the back of the head by an Abraham Lincoln impersonator.Īndre has a band because he is supposed to be hosting a late-night talk show. While the members of his fake lounge band whip their instruments into a shambolic frenzy, Andre tears his own arm from his shoulder and begins beating himself in the face. This is how comedian Eric Andre begins the fourth season of his eponymous television show on Adult Swim - possessed, scary, dangerous, ruthlessly professional, and morbidly funny. You accept the deranged task at hand: I am a professional, I am focused, and I am going to close the gates of Hell. I didn’t question which arm to yank off, and I definitely didn’t wonder why the Hellspawn aren’t more dynamic characters. Playing the game earlier this week, I approached a bloody skeleton Hell Guard and beat it to death with its own arm as buckets of blood pumped out of its bloated carapace. The video game Doom begins with the player waking up on Mars to discover that a group of scientists has accidentally ripped open a portal to Hell and allowed a violent demon horde to cross over.
