NBC Olympics

Such an annoying experience. Hosts are talking and talking, repeating themselves, and repeating old episodes a hundredth time. Just filling the time. As an example, a closing ceremony is supposed to be shown at 7 pm CST, it's already 7:30, and nothing but blah-blah from their studio. No wonder nobody in the USA are watching Olympic games. Bad bad coverage.

I can't believe NBC runs commercials on half the screen with athletes performing on the other side with no sound for the athletes just sound for the commercial. The number of normal commercial breaks is beyond ridiculous but these athletes deserve to be seen on the full screen. NBC puts the good old mighty dollar before the athletes and viewers. I now refuse to watch NBC coverage due to this and only stream it. Also stop giving so much time to figure skating. People 50 and under have moved on to the half pipe and snow boarding and other more modern sports. Get with the times. Ice skating stopped being one of the most popular sports 15 years ago. It's a grandma sport in this day and age.

It is the worst's I've ever seen if I wanted to watch commercial for five hours I would have watched DR.Phil show thay said this one part would be commercial free what a bunch of crap there is nothing that will get me to watch anymore of this junk

This is the worst coverage of any Olympic Games I have ever seen. Not only were most of the sports not available through any thing the the horrible Peacock app ( that took 2 min to load and I have very fast bandwidth) but there were more commercials than content- and no way to forward through the highly repetitive commercials
At one point I made a list of the repeated commercials and am planning on boycotting those products for at least a year. Commentaries were inane and in informative. Really NBC, we're you even trying?

Coverage riddled with ads at the most inopportune times. Split screens for ads combined with long wait times for scores and dead air have made these games unwatchable. Too bad as the athletes are so exciting, but the coverage is horrendous. Maybe viewers will get lucky and see the olympics mover to a network that can manage them.

As a pationent winter olympics fan, having watched for 50 years. I am dismayed at this poorly produced broadcast. English speaking Commentators, whose accents are difficult to decipher, Broadcasters & coverage being cutoff for commercials. Cameras not catching snowboarders or skiers complete Ariel jumps. I am not alone, in this opinion, as majority of people, that I know who tuned in, share the same opinions.

I turned the sound off while watching the Olympics due to the talking heads nasty narrative pointed at the 2 countries athletes the USA is fighting with now. The USA has committed atrocities against many groups of peoples. The Olympics is a place where people gather to compete peacefully. Some of your announcers ruined that NBC.

2/15/22 the Today show said that women's figure skating would begin tonight at 2000 ET. NBC ran adds during the day today saying the same thing. The women's figure skating was not broadcast at 2000 ET but men's bobsledding. Lying, sorry people. I hate it when people don't tell the truth just to get us to turn on the TV. Bob Costas would not have done that.

Having a commercial while a snowboard or ski jumping run is going on is STUPID to say the least. I for one am not going to trade with the companies that put their commercials in the middle of a run. Just nothing but BS.

Commercials in the middle of the leaders' runs during big air and many other events! Otherwise, some of the announcers they had were sooooooo boring and unhelpful. "Didn't fully rotate, missed that landing..."... WOW! What helpful technical insight haha. Really anticlimatic and uninteresting. Annoucer was good for halfpipe, but kept getting spoken over by the non-specialist. Rude and disrespectful. Events were all piece-milled together so you never seemed to get full coverage of an event start to finish. These winter events only happens every 4 years. You'd think they could be better prepared. Very disappointing coverage of the Olympics. Worst I remember in 40 years.

Have always watched and enjoyed the olympics. This year after the disgraceful kneeling by US Women's Soccer I refused to watch any Olympic competitions (not one).
You are to represent your country not yourself.

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.

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.

The NBC coverage of the water sports have been the worst I have ever seen. Artistic Swimming commentator was awlful and she was calling some of these amazing feats with some being "radical" because it wasnt ballet music. What a disappointment! These young women should be praised for such amazing artistry. She needs to be replaced, just stop talking or just tone it down!
The numerous commercial breaks are nauseous. Then when they cut and say they will give you the score after the commercial, they don't on many! Pathetic! Not pleased NBC. Do better and tell your commentators to hush and stick to the sport and tone down the hideous commercials that continue to interrupt the enjoyment of 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.
