Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

I like that one point where he puts his finger in that woman's mouth. I also like the Peppercorn Bing Bong bit.
All around, the show is fucking hilarious. My wife can hardly stand it though, it's too much for her.

I never really found the dude to be all that funny. Obnoxious humor just really isn't that funny to me.

Most of his shtick is based on modern day stereotypes and I find it meaningful

The pizza ball skit is pretty funny. I saw him do stand up and it was the shortest show I ever saw. He did like 20 minutes and played a video clip of a movie he's got coming out hopefully someday. He was headlining and it was a sold out show. Pretty disappointing.
One thing that was hilarious in the show was he brought someone on stage to text their mom on their phone to see the reaction. He put their phone on a giant screen to see it in real time. Well after some weird texts the mom called him in face time. He answered the phone and put the mom on the big screen for everyone to see. I'm not good at explaining it but it was hilarious.

I saw him so his stand up last fall. It was over an hour. He did the phone skit then too. He also promoted the movie.

I know of lots of funny people in this world. That dude to me just isn't one of them. I just don't find being obnoxious a funny trait. But he's rich as fuck so what do I know. It's like that Jeff Dunmer or whatever his name is with the puppets. That dude is just obnoxious and i just cannot laugh at anything he does.

You just compared Eric Andre to Jeff Dunham wtf
Eric Andre is obnoxious often, intentionally, but the humor is nuanced, it’s not for everybody, I’m not trying to say it’s above you probably just not something that tickles you the right way but to lump him with the daytime comedy central puppet guy is an odd choice to me.
He’s more of a Tom Green, or Sacha Baron Cohen type of comedian. He’s an intelligent guy with severe adhd. A jazz musician as well. And his show is some of the funniest shit ever on tv, but you and I don’t share a similar sense of humor.

Andre graduated from Harvard or one of the other big schools. He's a really smart dude.
I like his humor a lot. The show is hilarious, and his stand up is solid too. The nuance of the TV show is definitely lost on most. The show is very in your face, and it's easy to lose track of the setup. I like watching it with my dad, he's 70 years old. His reactions go from laughing his ass off to WTF in seconds.
Here's an article on season 5. The article is cracking me up already.

He is way too loud and obnoxious for my liking but I can appreciate him in small doses

He copied Tom Green, but he has some funny moments.

I loved Tom Green, his show was awesome, but Andre's humor while similar is a fair departure. It's not like Green invented the style though, Andy Kaufman is one of the earliest comedians of that style that i can think of, but there are probably earlier yet.

Yep, agreed, Andy was a master of it! Sasha Cohen is as well, way better than andre or green, but they all have a place in comedy.
