What are some spontaneous, unscripted moments that made you cringe?

Anim8rFSK...
Judy Woodruff on 9/11 urging atheists to pray for the World Trade
Center, because she knew when it came down to it, they believed in God
just like she does.

Marlene Blanshay...
i never even knew about that...yikes.

Then there's dan rather weeping....

Anim8rFSK...
That's probably the only time I liked Dan Rather. Granted, it was still
uncomfortable.

Anytime anyone sings the National Anthem and screws up. In fact, any
time anyone sings the national anthem in general, cause I keep fearing
they're going to screw up, and that makes me tense. :)

Nullibicity...
I get similarly uncomfortable when a talk show goes to a live shot out
on the street, like when Jimmy Kimmel tries to find people outside to
play a game. It usually never works well, because most people aren't
walking around prepared to be on TV.


ravenlynne...
That psycho uber-christian lady on Trading spouses going off about the
devil to the Wiccans.

But it made for a great episode of "The Soup".
