'25 Biggest TV Blunders' on TV Guide Network

TV Guide Network is airing the “25 Biggest TV Blunders.” The show counts down the television decisions that left everyone scratching their heads in disbelief. Here are some that I did not know about:

The Ultimate Johnny Carson Collection - His Favorite Moments From The Tonight Show (Vols. 1-3) (1962-1992)- Erasing Johnny Carson: NBC erases the first decade of the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson in order to save tape stock.
- Project Runway: In the height of its popularity, the show switches networks and moves to L.A. On top of a mega-lawsuit featuring some of Hollywood’s biggest players, fans were confused and became uninterested (I thought this show was still a hit).
- Stars who turned down hit roles: Paul Shaffer never returned a call offering him the roll of George Costanza in Seinfeld, and Dana Delany turned down the role of Carrie Bradshaw on Sex and the City.
