We, the undersigned viewers and fans of CNN's New Year's Eve Live, humbly submit this petition urging you to allow Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper to enjoy a drink on this year's New Year's Eve broadcast.

For years, Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper have provided us with memorable and entertaining moments as they usher in the New Year. Their dynamic and witty banter have become an essential part of our New Year's Eve celebrations. However, we believe that allowing them to share a drink during the broadcast would only enhance the festive atmosphere and make the show even more enjoyable for viewers.

This is not to advocate for excessive or irresponsible drinking on live television. Rather, it is a request to permit them a responsible and limited amount of alcohol, which can be consumed in a controlled and respectful manner.

In a time when many of us have faced numerous challenges and uncertainties, the familiar faces of Andy and Anderson sharing a drink would serve as a symbol of hope, camaraderie, and unity. It would add a touch of authenticity to the celebrations, reminding us that even in tough times, we can still come together and find joy in shared moments.

We understand the need to uphold professional standards, and we trust that Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper will consume alcohol responsibly while continuing to deliver insightful and entertaining commentary. We hope that CNN will consider this petition seriously and make an exception for this year's New Year's Eve Live broadcast.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. We eagerly anticipate a positive response and look forward to celebrating New Year's Eve with Andy and Anderson in the spirit of unity, joy, and hope.

Thank you!
