Isn't there a TV right in front of them showing their every moves? Besides, when you work for a while, you will eventually know which day is monday and blah blah blah.

Yeah they have a screen on the side...it looks like they're looking back where they're pointing but they're actually looking to the side. I hope that made sense. My girl scout troop went to our local news station a few years ago and saw them doing it

1) They practice, a lot. 2) They have screens that show them where they're pointing.

Yeah, I actually did it once, while on a field trip to a new studio. It's actually MUCH harder than it looks, because you confuse your left and right and point at the wrong side and whatnot.
