Considering the phase of existence we have been passing through, it is a pleasure to see others of us giving their best effort at what they love. We probably all should try some of that. On a little of a down side, I do wish people responsible for the graphics in sport broadcasting were better trained in color, contrast and font sizing. My eyes are three times older than the athletes I watch
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
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
The political statements given during the Olympic coverage was extremely distasteful. I want to watch the Olympics and not listen to distasteful political narrative.
Why in the world would NBC have a British announcer to host the Olympics? There are many great American announcers, women especially, who would do a wonderful job.
We arent seeing races and full events. I dont want to hear who won I want to see it. Too many commercials. Too much warm ups. Too little of the events!
There is no flow nothing but commercials can't even get score in women snow boarders with out commercials horrible coverage evert night
I don't think you have any idea that we cannot hear anything you commentators are saying. The music is great.
Could you please tell Tara Lapinski and Johnny Weir not to talk so much, I can't hear the music or enjoy the performance.
Thank you

Focus on "tricks" and not on skill or style. Where was the speed skating. Most boring coverage ever.
I'm watching the coverage on NBC and the music is so loud that I can't understand what the commentators are saying. Turn it down please.
Wondering why NBC couldn't find an American commentator for our Olympics?! I find it annoying that Rebecca is anchoring our Olympics. I feel like I am watching BBC news. NBC- get with it.
... was terrible. Mike and Savanah were totally drowned out by the background sounds from the stadium announcers.
I realize you must pay for coverage but seriously missing two skiers everytime! Tiny side of a split screen doesn't cut it. Jill
Come on, get your s*** together!
Commercials over riding the "LIVE" competition? What's up?
No wonder there are so many lousy reviews.
So frustrating trying to enjoy these Olympics! More commercials than anything else! The split screen view is horrible! I get up and leave.
Am so disappointed in NBC coverage of mens half pipe snow boarding. Waiting from 7 p to 915p and he's coming right up. How ridiculous.
We are no longer listening to the opening ceremony because we cannot hear the NBC announcers at all
Just so you know
My favorite winter sport is curling. I am a long time fan, going back to when it was men in plaid pants who wore a Tam O'shanta and yes, they used brooms. There was also better TV coverage then vs. what you provide now.
I can only assume, yeah I know about assume. I watched Oscar and Felix also. I'm assuming that whoever is directing the curling broadcast, does not know curling.
If the sweepers or skip, or both are yelling directions, what good is an overhead camera shot that shows MAYBE 3 meters in front and often zooms in on only half the house. Sorry, but that's just pathetic. Remember 4 years to plan.
WHY do you not shoot lengthwise, so the viewer has a similar view to the players? That would enable the viewer to see the line and geat a better understanding of the contestants shouting directions.
Jason continually commenting on the contestants being miked so we can hear them talking strategy. However jason never shuts up so we can hear the contestants, talking about scraped knees when someone was 6. Absurd and quite contradictory.
Furthermore, when discussing the next critical shot instead of now doing an overhead shot you do butt and face shots. Never showing what they are planning. Your analysts do a nice job. Kevin is excellent.
On mulitiple occasions your viewers miss as many as 7 stones in an end because you can't record during your advertisements and show the whole contest?
Shift the stone count vertically to the side and show lengthwise shots.
Your non-USA team coverage is not listed as highlights only, but you do not show a complete competition. All it is is an opportunity to run tons of adverts. Shame on you.
The biathlon was chopped
You had four years to plan for this, four years, and people actually got together and were like: yeah, this is it, it's great? Do those people still have jobs? And you can't blame it on Covid, your product is TV, that's what you sell.
Back in day of those Tam O'Shantas there was a saying of " You've come a long way baby". Sad to say you have gone a long way baby. Backwards.
