The only olympic events I can find on TV are swimming and gymnastics. Why?!?

Question

I've seen a tiny bit of diving and vollyball, u\but that's it. This is frustrating! I want more!

What's the deal? Thanks.

Answer 1

NBC is airing mainly the events that will get the highest rating during prime time (which happens to be swimming and gymnastics over the last few days).

Check MSNBC, CNBC, USA Network, Oxygen, Telemundo (and other Spanish-language channels), and other non-US channels, as these channels air some of the less-watched events throughout the day.

Answer 2

the main networks only show the events that have the biggest followings/best ratings. that is why swimming and gymnastics are featured. plus, those events are scheduled so they air in primetime

Answer 3

well on sat track & field starts. i think the other sports like diving will w more. i am so excited that track and field is starting on sat.

Answer 4

You need to check out all the NBC rated channels like telemundo and CNBC.
