I think NBC should show a lot fewer commercials and essentially air the games non-stop, based on their exclusive contract, but my wife is a big fan and has had it on; it’s honestly been pretty good. I’ve seen lots of speedskating, women’s biathlon, the men’s skiathlon, all of which have essentially no Americans.
For most of these sports, the average person knows nothing about the competitors, and often very little about the sport. I think the commentating has had a good mix of experienced athletes who can talk about the event, the difficulty, and the people with knowledge.
I think the worse part is that to get a video feed on NBC you need to subscribe to a TV service.
