"Overslept big time. It's 6:34 AM and I'm still in the car," she wrote, followed by a few panicked clips of hers quickly dropping into the studio and rushing off to hair and make-up.

Five minutes before she was supposed to go on the air, Savannah captured herself running into the studio to occupy her seat next to Craig Melvin.
