Televised absurdity will live to fight another day, as Adult Swim has confirmed the return of The Eric Andre Show.
The series, hosted by recent Bad Trip star and Jackass Forever participant Eric Andre, will launch its sixth season via Adult Swim and HBO Max in 2023, per a press release shared Wednesday. Andre referred to Season 6 as, fittingly, “Season 666” and vowed to give fans a continuation of the series’ signature derangement.
“Expect more deranged pranks, fire, and chaos in Season 666 with a jam-packed schedule of celebrities I can’t believe agreed to this,” he stated.
Confirmed guests for Season 666 include Blac Chyna, Rico Nasty, Waka Flocka, Tinashe, Lil Yachty, Cypress Hill, Jon Hamm, Diplo, Natasha Lyonne, Jaleel White, Raven-Symoné, Meagan Good, and Daymond John. Handling directing duties are Kitao Sakurai and Jeff Tremaine. Season 5 wrapped back in November 2020, with Stormy Daniels among those serving as guests on the series’ 50th episode.
Andre has remained plenty busy in the ensuing years. In addition to the aforementioned Bad Trip and Jackass Forever appearances, not to mention this week’s Jackass 4.5 on Netflix, he popped up on HBO’s Danny McBride-led The Righteous Gemstones this year as Texas-based televangelist (and friend of a Jonas brother) Lyle Lisson.
2022, notably, marks 10 years since the debut of The Eric Andre Show, which formally kicked off its marathon of subversion on May 20 of 2012.
