Live television can lead to some hilariously unexpected moments, especially when hosts or guests forget the cameras are rolling. One iconic instance occurred during a 2014 broadcast of “The Today Show.” After a segment ended, anchor Savannah Guthrie and her co-hosts began chatting candidly, completely unaware they were still on air. Their casual conversation included playful banter that left viewers amused and slightly shocked at the behind-the-scenes vibe.

Another unforgettable moment happened in 2007 during a live CNN broadcast when reporter G. Gordon Liddy thought he was off-camera and made an inappropriate joke. The clip quickly spread online, and while it was awkward for him, it became a classic example of how quickly things can go sideways when people forget they’re being watched.

In 2019, a live weather report turned chaotic when a reporter, caught off-guard by a rogue dog, exclaimed a string of colorful language. The moment was both funny and cringeworthy, reminding audiences that live TV is full of surprises and that sometimes, the best moments come when people least expect it!
