When Plans Go Awry: The Unintended New York Episode
Let me tell you, folks, something unexpected happened on Live With Kelly and Mark on Monday, February 26. Fans were buzzing with excitement, ready to tune in for a live broadcast from the dazzling city of Las Vegas. But guess what? Instead of the glitz and glamour of Sin City, viewers were treated to a prerecorded episode filmed right there in New York City. Can you imagine the surprise? Not exactly what anyone was expecting, right?
Here’s the deal: Kelly Ripa, at 53, and Mark Consuelos, 52, showed up in their usual New York studio to kick off the week. Now, while this might seem like business as usual, the twist was that a little disclaimer popped up at the bottom of the screen. It let everyone watching know that, yes, this episode was prerecorded. Talk about a curveball!
What Happened to Vegas, Baby?
Let’s rewind for a moment. For weeks, Kelly and Mark had been teasing that they would be filming their show in Las Vegas during the final week of February. Fans were pumped, expecting to see their favorite duo live from the Strip on February 26 and 27. But alas, the press release left out one crucial detail: it didn’t specify whether those episodes would air on those exact dates. Oops! That’s bound to cause a little confusion, wouldn’t you say?

The press release went on to paint a picture of excitement, promising that during their star-studded stay, Kelly and Mark would be joined each morning by a lineup of celebrities, musicians, and more. All this in front of thousands of fans! Who wouldn’t want to be there? But when the episode aired, it felt like a missed opportunity for fans eagerly waiting for that Vegas vibe.
Las Vegas, Here They Come (Eventually)
Now, don’t get me wrong. Kelly and Mark didn’t ditch Vegas entirely. On the Live official Instagram account, a video clip showed the cast and crew getting ready in Las Vegas. The caption of a February 25 clip read, “Getting ready for our shows from the BleauLive Theater at the @fontainebleaulasvegas @vegas ! @dejavuspeaks.” So, they were definitely there, just not when everyone thought they’d be.
Kelly and Mark even confirmed their arrival in Las Vegas through their Instagram Stories. They were spotted enjoying a couple of concerts together after touching down in Sin City. But despite their presence, the February 26 episode didn’t reflect that. Fans were left scratching their heads, wondering what happened.
One fan commented on the post, “I thought they were in Vegas today?” And they weren’t alone in their confusion. Plenty of other people echoed the same sentiment. Another comment on Live’s official Instagram account read, “What happened to Vegas today and tomorrow?” Someone helpfully responded, “They are taping shows today and tomorrow for the rest of the week.” So, there you have it!
Next Stop: The Academy Awards
After wrapping up their Las Vegas adventures, Kelly and Mark are set to jet off to Los Angeles for the Academy Awards. They’ll be hosting a special episode of Live the morning after the March 10 ceremony at the Dolby Theatre at Ovation Hollywood. It’s going to be a show to remember!
According to the press release, this episode will feature unforgettable moments with the night’s biggest winners captured just moments after they walked offstage. It’s going to be a high-energy, live event in front of a huge audience of fans. And if that’s not enough, there will be musical performances, fashion panels, and more. It’s shaping up to be the highest-rated show of the year for Live, and you won’t want to miss it!
