IF i was ‘not aired publically Live’ production would have that half hour or hour to ‘work that out’ before air time. Remember, Hollywood programs don’t just air and are filmed on set during our time zones scheduled air time. They do the ‘live in front of studio audience 6 to 12 hours, sometimes a day before, the actually televised air date. When something literally ‘GOES LIVE for TV, productions edits are not going to happen. So we get to view all the ‘flubs, mistakes, split second moments they forget their lines(most don’t if they are seasons actors, but then again. some days they still forget and end up ‘ad libbing’ or the responding character needs to ad lib a total different response than first originated within the practiced script. It’s like viewing a stage play or broadway stage production. Even mishaps and mistakes in verbal scripts take place. But the show must go on. Your viewpoint is completely valid and it’s great that you noticed the few screw ups, be they ‘technical in nature’, and/or ‘off script/ad lib’. I caught a few ad lib words within this live for national viewers’ episode. And loved how they all seemed to run with it each time. When there are veteran seasoned actors they can fix anything the younger actors may slightly screw up. It’s harder to detect such things once production has the time to edit/splice and ‘fix’ those instantanious mishaps.
