This wasn’t exactly a year full of good news — but it _was_ a year full of good news bloopers. This compilation includes some of 2014’s very best TV mishaps — and seeing them all one after the other only amplifies the true ridiculousness.

There are tons of accidental f-bombs, reporters getting smacked with random objects, hilarious technical goofs, weird costumed people running wild in the backgrounds of shots and more.

It’s a whole year’s worth of pure schadenfreude, and it is a beautiful gift to us all. Oh, if [you’re thirsty for more](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zymqOEDLYnU), NewsBeFunny has added a second compilation of bloopers:
