NBC News election analyst Steve Kornacki became the internet's favorite part of midterm night again. Fans set clips of him walking into the studio to sports-entrance music, as if it were "Game 7 of the NBA Finals," For The Win reports, using The White Stripes' "Seven Nation Army," the Chicago Bulls' starting-lineup song "Sirius" and NFL Primetime music.

NBC's "Kornacki Cam," a livestream of him working the big board, drew "29 million views across all platforms," according to an NBC News press release cited by Entertainment Weekly, which called it the top election livestream of the cycle. Just over 10 hours into a planned 13-hour stream, at about 3:26 a.m., Kornacki said he needed "about five minutes" and walked off. About 30 minutes later he posted on X: "I was sure 13 hours would be fine but things caught up to me in a hurry at hour 10."
