See the hilarious TV moments of 2017 and you can't help but laugh

If you followed the media attentively in 2017, you will recall some of the funny TV moments that made headlines for various reasons and going through some of these moments will certainly make you laugh.

This year’s TV included plenty of moments when some people got it hilariously and spectacularly wrong.

From reported spottings of cougars which turn out to be a house cat to news readers mispronouncing names and words, 2017 made for great TV viewing, especially when it involved a blooper or two.

And you remember this???

However it’s not just newsreaders who hilariously fail.

Melbourne jogger Erica O’Donnell delivered the ultimate gaffe during a vox pop interview with Channel Seven in January.

Ms O’Donnell, was running near Melbourne’s Botanical Gardens when she was stopped for a vox pop by reporter Michael Scanlan, who was doing a story on exercise.

During the interview, Scanlan asked the woman for her first and last name.

Erica O’Donnell,” she replied.

And can you spell — first and last?” asked Scanlan.

F-I-R-S-T, L-A-S-T,” replied O’Donnell.
