blooper reel
Filmed flubs collection
A blooper reel is a compilation of outtakes and mistakes from film or television production—flubbed lines, actors breaking character, technical mishaps.
Originally assembled for cast and crew entertainment, blooper reels became popular as DVD extras and online content: The blooper reel was funnier than the movie itself.
The format has expanded to sports highlights and viral video compilations.
