Most Outrageous Moments (originally titled Most Outrageous TV Moments for the first season) is an NBC clip show showcasing video bloopers and mishaps, and commonly used as a backup program by NBC to fill any timeslots where regular programming does not get any traction in the ratings, or to fill in timeslots between seasons of reality programming. In its first season, premiered on February 8, 2005 [1], it aired a limited number of specials focusing on live television and game shows.
The series itself is a spin-off of Most Outrageous Game Show Moments, a series of specials showcasing outtakes and funny moments from television game shows. Since this particular series depends exclusively on stock footage, Outrageous Moments uses laugh tracks and applause carts to provide audience responses, and, obviously, is not presented before a live studio audience.
It aired its second season on NBC as a regular series showing video footages of humorous events from various functions, but the show was not renewed after the 2005-2006 season. However, it continued to air in repeats and returned with all new episodes on April 22, 2008. Scott Satin is the executive producer. John Cramer is the narrator.
