The special's

Stars flub their lines and make each other laugh in clips from
such shows as "The King of Queens," "Everybody Loves Raymond"
and "JAG."
CLASSIC
TV:
Outrageous television moments are provided by late talk show host
Steve Allen as well as Carl Reiner, Dinah Shore and Red Skelton.
LOVE FLUBS:
Keeping a straight face during a love scene, isn't always easy,
as demonstrated by clips from shows like "Yes, Dear" and "Becker."
PROPS:
Even though props can't speak or act, they can still flub a scene,
as evidenced in outtakes from "Diagnosis Murder," "Kate Brasher"
and "JAG."
BILL BURRUD:
Animal Host Bill Burrud learns that animals operate on instinct
in these spontaneous moments with furry guest stars.
BECKER:
Star Ted Danson certainly knows how to deliver a joke -- and take
one -- in these outtakes from his hit show "Becker."
LOCAL
NEWS:
Even the most serious journalist has trouble keeping a straight
face when something unexpectedly funny happens.
LIKE FATHER,
LIKE SON:
"Diagnosis Murder" co-stars Barry Van Dyke and his father, Dick
Van Dyke, share a television show, but also some flubs in this
segment…as do President Bush and former President Bush.
SPORTS

From the golf course to the football field, sports often provide
some of television's greatest moments.
