NBC OlympicsReviews 67

With all the modern technology, why can't you identify the competitor and their country on the screen? Why all the same commercials over and over? I looked up the time Shawn White was running half pipe qualifying last nite and the NBC schedule said 11:30. It was after midnight by the time he finished his first run. It was one competitor five commercials — we turned it off and would check the news in the am for his second run. Really negative feeling towards advertisers and NBC's greed which force that on all of us wanting to be proud Americans watching the Olympics.

When watching sports like snowboard half pipe and more than half the screen is waster or commercials, who are you kidding? Cut of talking heads and replay if your short on time!

The outdoor P. A. volume totally drowns out your event analysts with loud, echoing, often foreign jiborish. Some of your indoor analysts just babble on and seem bored with their event. (eg womens hockey) Constant reruns don't make for interesting viewing, and going to split screen muting olympic coverage for commercials while events are taking place is frustrating and inexcusable. Savannah and Hoda with jackets and hats in their NY studio doesn't really add authenticity or interest. As a lifelong Olympic junkee, this was/is an embarassment. I feel sorry for the athletes.

She's awful and I don't care about color or sex but picking a black woman to make a woke statement is hilarious and ridiculous especially when she is horrible. Should have followed MLK, judged by the level of their talent and not the color of their skin. And you wonder why ratings are awful? Just watch for a few minutes and it becomes apparent.

Absolutely worst coverage I have seen in a long time. Will quit watching any further Olympic events going forward. Mikaela Shiffrin skies out a second time in a row and NBC stops coverage of all other competitors?! Completely missing the point of what the Olympics are all about.
Viewers also shouldn't be forced into paying extra money to sign up for Peacock in order to able to watch an important event like the Olympics.

Lame coverage - especially if you watch anything On Demand relegated to Peacock. But even live when they split the screen to show commercials and you cannot really tell what's going on or see the scores in the smaller window. NBC should NOT play commercials at the same time as coverage. Too many commercials, too. Very disappointing NBC.

Rebroadcasts and Repeats. Split screen commercials so you can't hear commentators let alone able to see a competitor's score. I am going to scratch NBC off of my viewing list. The want you to pay for Peacock. I would have given zero stars if I could have. This has to be a complete embarrassment for NBC. Couldn't even follow the schedule of what order events would be on. Just horrible!

Worst coverage of any sporting event or olympics I have ever seen. Have watched more minutes of commercials than of events. Listings show events but when you tune in at that time, they are showing some other event. When twice I actually saw the event I wanted to see, NBC showed part of it then informs me that I an watch the rest on Peacock... wtf. This is NOT coverage, it is "lets sell advertising and Peacock subscriptions" I now really worry about NBC having superbowl. I expect the first quarter on NBC, 2nd quarter on usa but when you tune in to usa you get half time show after which announcer will tell you second half to be broadcast live on Peacock

Once again your coverage of the Olympics is a dumpster fire! Running the same sports on 2 channels at the same time is NOT giving us good content. I think someone needs to retool the entire Olympics coverage, you have enough channels and yet you run the same thing on 2 or 3 channels leaving tons of content off the air. I wish someone at NBC Sports gets a clue or Olympics will no longer be on NBC or the pay for channels. You should be ashamed of your coverage!

Watching the women's short track skiing: Greedy NBC is splitting the screen 60% / 40% to run long strings of commercials during live competition! Because of their larger portion of the screen, the commercials totally the audio of the games and take away the ability of viewers to see the Olympic action's scoring results. UNBELIEVABLY incompetent broadcasting. NBC is clearly the greediest Olympic coverage network of all time. I will never again watch their network for any sports coverage. Grrrr!

Please filter out the background announcements ASAP. We can't understand a thing on what the announcer is saying on majority of events. This coverage is the worst I've experienced from NBC

Can't believe that if I want to see if Redmond Gerard wins the gold in Men's Slopestyle Snowboarding live, I have to pay for Peacock Premium. Really unacceptable. I suppose the American Ninja Warrior repeat, the poker tour and other lame "sports" that are on NBC's plethora of stations are raking in the ratings. It's really disappointing. If you are going to commit to covering the Olympics - - cover it.
Appreciate Mike Tirico's coverage.

Why is NBC putting sports on USA in the afternoon and the same broadcast in NBC later. I dont know anyone that does not have recording. If it was worth seeing, they can record it. There is no reason to watch NBC Primetime. Today for instance there was Luge and now it is on again tonight on NBC. They had Long jump on toady and then rebroadcast it, like that has a huge following. Just terrible coverage. So many different sports and they play the same ones over and over. Then the same nauseating people announcing and covering every Olympics. How about some new people.

The fact you have 2 sets of commentators for the figure skating is ridiculous. Especially the woman who talks the whole way through. "Now she's doing crossovers. Now she did a jump. She's wearing a dress with lots of sequence. Her hair is in a bun with a colorful clip." It is so asinine, having this woman talking over Terry, Tara and Johnny to the point where they each cancel each other out. Then I turned to the snowboarding and you have a guy doing the same irritating thing. If I continue watch at all, I'll do it with the sound on mute.
