Well, at least I'll be able to fast-forward through the commercials, and the crappy parts, which sounds like it will probably be most of it.
I rarely watch live tv anymore.

I'm watching `Most Dangerous Catch' but from what I'm reading here it sounds like our cousins' opening ceremonies need:
Queen Elizabeth>QE>Quantitative Easing. Coinkydink? Could be .....
So have Prince Jughead and his mare made an appearance?

We came in late, but basically I liked what I think is the 1st part - the “industrialization” and so forth.
Then after the queen they broke into self-congratulatory narcissism with the NHS. OMG.

It won’t be on until another hour on the west coast. I’ll be passed out by then.

What would an Olympics be without Bermuda marching in Bermuda shorts?

No political correctness is complete without lots of Canadian indians.

Yeah, the NHS was really odd. And I wish that Costas and Lauer would shut up about the politics of each nation. And it’s never anything good: Here comes Greece, they’re bankrupt, you know?
To: Mad Dawgg
I guess you mean the bad “1984” and not the good 1984.
Because the 1984 Olympics, besides, were like, totally awesome!

No, because they did an awesome job on the OC. Still the best I’ve seen. (Never mind the logistics there were great. No problems at all.)

To: jakerobins
Wow, good to read all this — I thought it was only me...yes, the broadcasters sounded like they were stoned and free associating (badly) about the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade. Nincompoops. And most everything else was just hideous.
