just how slow do you want us to write?
NBC cheated us of proper figure skating, both in comptetitions, which were only on after 11 pm and close to midnight. the sunday exhibitions of winners were NOT SHOWN AT ALL. JUST 2 PERFORMANCES WERE SHOWN BEFORE MIDNIGHT.,
IS THIS NOT A FAMILY PROGRAM? DO ALL FAMILIES STAY UP AFTER MIDNIGHT? DISGUSTED WITH NBC.

The programing schedule, or lack of, of the Hockey games on NBC was poor. What was the reason the National game of Canada was not shown more???
The NBC programers rate a D with regard to the Hockey coverage,especially the womens final, what were they thinking, not much…………

NBC sucks. The constant bullshit that Republicans this... and Republicans that... ads throughout the Olympics shows how left they are. NBC Sports has gone down the tubes. Report the sports, leave the politics to politics, this is SPORTS.

I give it 9 out of 10 - 9 because it is too centric on flag waving. Why not just hand out gold medals? NBC counts everything as one. Why bother with bronze?

Just give out gold medals to everybody. Everybody wins. How much more egalitarian can you get? Gold for everybody. Make the NBC medal count more meaningful.

NBC covereage is so bad. I cant' beleive we only got 8 seconds of the final 3rd period of the hockey game between USA and Canada tonight- but we managed to get everything we never wanted to see of figure skating and about 92 minutes of commercials. This is riduculous. Wonder if Fox would have done as bad as NBC. Doubt it.

I think the woman that is the commentry for the figure skating is awful. She is so negative and seems to only looks for the slighest error. These athletes have worked so hard to get where they are. The reason the Olympians are there is because they are the best. Apparently the best isn't good enough for her. Who is she anyway?

What a bunch of whores! I was looking forward to watching the Olympics. Not watching commentators telling me about what I just missed and then telling me what I am missing now. Who really cares about "Behind the Olympics"? Give that section to Dr. Phil. We already have to look at him 5 hours of every day. If anyone from NBC does read this they can tell their boss I said they can stick it up their own A@@.

The technical aspects of the coverage are terrible. They can't get the sound levels right between the announcers and the event. You can't hear the announcer, but you can hear a snowmobile and helicopter on the Snowboardcross events. Just awful.

What really stinks..is if you have a small company provider..(in my case Bloomingdale Communications)..they couldn’t afford to get the coverage on MSNBC, CNBC or USA … so we only get to watch CBS..even tho our menus tell us the olympics are being shown…so no Hockey for most of western Michigan…really terrible PR move. No pre olympic notification that this would happen…

NBC coverage sucks. Way too many commercials, superficial coverage of events, and a lot of useless chatter for commentary, time that would be better spent actually showing us the events. They are also not taking full advnatage of all their stations to fully cover what is happening. Forget the TV and switch to online coverage.

I spend 16 hours on NBC TV and online everyday. I have to say NBC did good job, thanks NBC. NBC online is fantastic, I watch the game there everyday. In a while I also check the other program TV, I found CCN is suck and bigger lier in the world.
