Honestly the one only Olympics-related thing i watched was that Grinch teaser trailer of him figure skating in his mind with Christina Aguilera playing in the background.
Maybe 15min to see highlights of Kim and White win half pipe. I'm now done. I simply don't care for the whole manufactured heart tugging to try and kill time and sell garbage. Show me competitions. But showing the competitions costs money.
None, as we've learned the Olympics are like tween shows, modeling, etc just recruitment schemes for predators. Not to mention that if I want to watch drug users move fast or do crazy stunts I'll just get an Uber to a bad block.
I am going to watch the men's and women's individual figure skating. Normally I watch a lot of the Olympics but I have been too busy this year- it kind of bums me out.
Very little, because whenever there's something on that we think might be interesting, NBC squelches our enthusiasm with its abysmal coverage and commentary.
Hours, I of course have to DVR the entire thing and sometimes, instead of fast forwarding through the commercials, i am saving those precious moments for the talking. To be fair, we are big Shaun White fans, and Kelly Clark, so we watched that, and the ice skating, hubby likes the luge, and we like a small bit of the skiing, we are about done though with what we care to see.
As much curling as my wife can tolerate, all the ice skating, some snowboard, some ski jump, some biathlon, and some moguls so far. Watching through the streaming app on my Roku is WAY better than watching the broadcasts. You get much more technical and less emotional commentary on events.
We've been watching A LOT. We've been watching everything on CBC because NBC sucks so bad. They've politicized the Olympics and it's disgusting. AND...CBC seems to do a better job on the coverage overall.
Red Gerard was amazing and Shaun White's win was emotional. Downhill and Slalom are unbelievable. We've been having fun with the whole thing.
I watched ice skating, know boarding, shall and luge!! I love it!!!! Shawn White is awesome as well as the skaters. Draw the line at hockey. Boring. Norwegian guys are something else❤
The dog and I sit on the couch; I drink wine, she cuddles while the Olympics are on. Waiting to see Lyndsey Vonn win another medal. It's absolutely fascinating to watch the world's most elite athletes at their best. Just totally amazing, especially the figure skating.
I had to seek out this post just to voice my disgust. I have been really trying to watch the Olympics but where the heck are they? seems NBC used to broadcast all day not just starting primetime with reruns.
lol other night I caught some competition with skiers with guns strapped to their backs skiing on ice then pausing to shoot stuff and then they slid out of the arena to ski uphill then down and what I must presume to shoot more stuff because it again cutaway to commercial. coverage is terrible. then was it last night that i was watching ski competition where they declared a winner switched to another event and then said there was big development on last competition, cut to commercial (I'm thinking someone crashed and got hurt) then they come back to say they declared wrong winner. competition wasn't even done wtf. and they roll figure skating so late and I don't even think it is live! but LOL at Johnny Weir(?) and that hair omg . I hadn't been seeing him merely hearing him but well worth the midnight viewing. I don't even have anything to compare that to, never seen anything like it in my life
regardless, very disappointed with NBC. programming infomercials while Olympics are being played. I just don't understand
I watch women's curling on CBC, and root for the Canuckettes. They call the games on CBC, rather than spending the time explaining the sport. One can pick up the rules and nuances without all the condescension.
I didn't watch any of the mixed doubles curling, so I never heard of (nor seen) Anastasia Bryzgalov until the doping scandal broke. Looks like I missed out, eh?
A salesman from the funeral home called last night, asking if I wanted to buy a plot.
ReplyDeleteI said that's the last thing I need.
Not one second
ReplyDeleteI watched that teenager win the snowboarding Gold - Chloe Kim. That was a blast.
ReplyDeleteNone, but the opening ceremonies were background noise when I hung out with friends.
ReplyDeleteWhatever's been on tv at the gym
ReplyDeleteI was in a galaxy far far away, I didn't know Olympics are this year, found out yesterday 😂
ReplyDeleteI don't watch tv lol, I prefer to do ice skating myself.
Whilst enjoying sushi the other night we watched ice skating. We debated the performances with the employees over sake lol
ReplyDeleteHonestly the one only Olympics-related thing i watched was that Grinch teaser trailer of him figure skating in his mind with Christina Aguilera playing in the background.
DeleteI love The Grinch (me every awards season). 🖤

ReplyDeletenone^^
ReplyDeleteWatching a whole event? Only the curling.
ReplyDeleteHighlights of the rest.
I am going to watch the men's and women's individual figure skating. Normally I watch a lot of the Olympics but I have been too busy this year- it kind of bums me out.
ReplyDeleteThis years olympic for me was the launch of the Falcon Heavy.

ReplyDeleteDaily but depending on the sport I pay little attention to it.
ReplyDeleteVery little, because whenever there's something on that we think might be interesting, NBC squelches our enthusiasm with its abysmal coverage and commentary.
ReplyDeleteHardly anything. Can't stand all the fluff.
ReplyDeleteTried to watch skating but was already finished..
ReplyDeleteZero, though I usually watch some. Too distracted and depressed by the news this year.
ReplyDelete10 to 15 minutes tops. Korea looks cold.
ReplyDeleteVery, very little!
ReplyDeleteThis & that. I do love figure skating. I flipped my shit when the Canadian guy skated to Jeff Buckley. He's a longtime favorite of mine.
ReplyDeleteNone at all
ReplyDeleteNot much. CBS won me over with Celebrity Big Brother
ReplyDeleteFigure skating only.

ReplyDeleteTons. I love the Olympics and was in training as a gymnast to compete.
ReplyDeleteI'm honestly glad I quit when I did, what with all the rapiness and all...

I have watched highlights of wins and that's it. I have no desire to watch it.
ReplyDeleteNone. Screw Korea and their dog torturing, mutiliating and eating ways. They are repulsive and the US should have boycotted this whole fiasco.
ReplyDeleteRed Gerard, Shaun White, Chloe Kim. Mikaela Shiffrin rocked it last night
ReplyDeleteAll the womens and mens hockey games. Just wish the men's talent was better. The woman's USA vs Canada game was great!
ReplyDeleteI’ve watched whenever the wife and I are at her parents’s house We got a huge kick out of Young Sun-Bin and his Iron Man helmet.
ReplyDeleteThat was one amazing Skeleton run last night!
*Yung. (Cut it out, autocorrect!)
Deletenone
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely zero seconds. But I see that Canada is #4 in the medal count (after some extremely deserving Europeans), so yay for us!
ReplyDeleteEvery night so far. I've even recorded the nights we've been busy.

ReplyDeleteNone. Wake me up when it's time to watch the World Cup. ⚽️👩🏻🇫🇷🏆
ReplyDeleteLuge and half pipe
ReplyDeletePS: Happy Chinese New Year to anyone celebrating! 🗽👩🏻🚕🍂💛
ReplyDeleteTons & tons - watching the skeleton right now. Winter Olympics is my crack. 🇨🇦

None. Boycotting because of the dog meat issue.
ReplyDeleteI've been watching curling. I find it strangely appealing.
ReplyDeleteI've been watching for upskirt and pussy/hard nips shots. The women in the luge all have eraser tip hard nipples.
