1. Demi Lovato Interview (The Eric Andre New Year's Eve Spooktacular, 12-31-12)

EA: We try to tell the guests as little as possible. The best moments are when they're completely out of their comfort zone. We specifically avoided booking comedians because comedians would understand it immediately. We were reaching out to like Mark Harmon from NCIS, and other serious actors. We reached out to Maya Angelou. We're trying to get Charlie Rose and Gucci Mane on the show at the same time so they can interview each other while I interview them. [source]

Some broken clips, including [sigh] all of the Breaking Bad ones, and clip 1, which introduced the world to Honey Boo Boo.

I would say that 8. Luck is the best clip, while 11. Eastbound and Down is my favourite clip.

As it was a slow television week, clip 52 is one we missed in 2012.

52. Brown Noser (Total Blackout, S01E02)
