Close Captioning Fun

I often watch shows with CC enabled, since my hearing is pretty poor. I just noticed on Regis & Kelly when they were interviewing Jackie Chan, Kelly said "She wanted her piece of Jackie Chan" (talking about a kissing scene in his new movie), which showed up in CC as "She wanted herpes of Jackie Chan".

Of course, these mistakes usually only happens during live shows since the taped ones are CC'ed in advance. There have been other mistakes like this that I have noticed before, but this one seemed really funny to me...

That's hilarious!

All the deaf people who watch the show probably think that Kelly is a real jerk!
