In Jeopardy! The Answer Would Be "With Anderson Cooper"

New Year's Eve 2010: Who did you spend it with -- on TV?
by EW staff

New Year’s Eve with Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin (CNN): Reuniting for a third Times Square ball drop, the unlikely but strangely watchable duo of Griffin and Cooper (or “Andy,” as Griffin calls him) once again turned CNN into the Comedy News Network of New Year’s Eve 2010. Griffin’s manic, barbed patter kept the straitlaced Cooper struggling to maintain some semblance of I’ve-reported-from-Afghanistan newsman decorum between fits of giggles. Whatever you think of Griffin, it’s always refreshing to see someone pop CNN’s bubble of self-seriousness. For an added bonus, Griffin—who last year let slip the now-infamous “knock a bag of d—s out of your mouth” line to a heckler—dropped the F-bomb while pretending to fumble over the first name of Falcon Heene, a.k.a. “Balloon Boy.” (PopWatcher Annie Barrett loved the K-Andy pairing; if you watched, let us know what you thought.)
