I was on the Today Show (in the crowd) once and on local news at least once.

Saw myself in the crowd at a high school football game when they showed the repeat on local TV the next day.

Fox and Friends, no reason.

A couple different things on local public access, two commercials on more major networks.

Citrus parade in Cloverdale. Like 35 years ago. We won a few years in a row. My mom made the best costumes.

I was that little kid they brought in to save the show when Miami Vice's ratings fell off.
---

Was doing interviews for a christmas event for a public access channel, was a high school project, tv gameshow in the philippines, and a commercial for a hotel in guam when I was kid.

The hotel one I didnt know it was a commercial, I thought we were just eating at the hotel, until my uncle saw me on TV.

I sat on a TV and broke it. Does that count?

Otherwise never afaik.

My academic bowl team in high school was in this annual tournament that was broadcast on the local public station. We won the tournament my junior and senior years, didn't get to play sophomore year because I was in the hospital that week.
---

Around the time Steve Francis was big in the NBA, he came to our gym to play a lot because that's where he grew up.

I think I may be on tv playing basketball with him.
---

One of those science bowl shows on like those local channels when I was in elementary school. Also, the news tried to stop me when I was leaving school after a shooting once...
---

Twice: in the crowd during an exhibition Spurs/Knicks game and I could clearly be seen. Spurs easily won and the most exciting part was watching Charlie Ward dive for an loose ball into the chairs.

The other was a soccer game. They were covering local "stars" and I was in the game. My teammate was featured in the video, as was one of our opponents. Teammate got a partial scholarship to Michigan after his senior season, other guy no idea.

Never been on TV myself, but my grandfather was an extra in The Ryan White Story.
---

I think I saw myself on TV once on the News. I was at an HMV buying something, what they shot was an HMV, my back facing the Camera, but the person was wearing the same jacket as me, same hair style I had at the time, and would have been about the same height.
---

a friend of mine and i made a fake commercial on G4TV for ninja warrior about 10 years ago, and they aired it, ok?
---

I was an extra in Touched by an Angel a few episodes. I was also a cop (extra) in a small series about Jonbenet Ramsey. This was all 20 years ago. I thought about getting into the business, but after experiencing the crapshoot of scheduled filming hours, I decided it wasn't something I could do long term.
---

Nothing, really. At most I was shown in a crowd during a parade when the news camera panned across my area.
---

I've only been in crowd shots. Towards the end of Primary School our year did a "day in the Life" at a Victorian school, and they picked that day to film it for a news piece on Anglia News. The only shot I was in was a long shot of a group of us walking outside though unfortunately.

I've also spotted myself in the audience shots on TV Shows I've attended the recording of, such as QI and Argumental. The best shot was in Dave Gorman's Modern Life is Goodish (British TV Show) series 1 episode 6, when he asked the audience a straw poll, although tbf I was in the front row towards the end.

I was interviewed on the news when I was a kid and my cardiologist retired. He was famous for being of the founders of the Children's Heart Clinic.

My older sister was in the crowd where they filed When Saturday Comes. I personally have never been on TV and certainly not in any films.

Mainly this. I wouldn't be suprised if I have been the background on news on occasion as well.

Campaign rally for 1988 presidential campaign; Lloyd Bentsen (Dem Veep candidate) flew in. My high school choir was there for the national anthem, right behind the podium.
---

I've been interviewed at anti-austerity protests a time or two.

The most recent time I was on TV, though... I was interviewed by a Brazilian journalist, at the city centre vigil we held the evening following the Manchester Arena bombing, which happened barely a mile from my apartment... A complicated memory, at best. I made a sign to carry that day, and it wound up being photographed by so many people that it's got a wider outreach on the web than I'll ever have. It still feels a bit surreal when I run across it. (The screenshot below is from Coronation Street - someone at ITV must have photographed it too, and I believe they put that screen on at the end of the first episode that aired after the attack - at least one of the victims, Martyn Hett, was a huge fan of the show, and it's filmed locally, so.)

Taking it back upbeat a bit, I can actually be seen on the Lacuna Coil concert DVD The 1.19 ShowLive in London, too, in the audience, waving my cane in the air. *g* I do that when I can't wave my arms, & because I was all in black it's the only thing other than my pale face that really shows up. ^_^ I felt kind of awesome about that, since they're probably my favourite band (I have trouble deciding as I'm a multi-genre butterfly).

It was a local program, this weeks episode featured a doctor answering questions via phone or the live audience. There was only about a dozen of us, all there at the promise of $50 in cash. Every time they asked if the audience had a question, everyone would just say nope.

When i was little my friend had a birthday party at a hockey place, and then a local news crew took a picture of us and then put it on the local news

A commercial starring Tracy Morgan. I'm only visible for a second or two though.
