I think there is a method to watching the Olympics on NBC that makes it enjoyable. Three things:

1. A mute button that keeps the channel muted, quieting the talking heads (yak, yak, yak)

2. Pandora or similar music station in a fine speaker beside you, calming and enjoyable.

3. A good book to read during commercials. ... and with all the commercials you can actually nearly finish a long book.

So I thoroughly enjoyed the Olympics on NBC ... loved seeing the City of Rio again even tho virtual, wonderful to see the great athletes ... didn't get into the (Made for TV) scandal of the swimmer (couldn't hear what they were talking about). So there IS a way to enjoy it, even on NBC.
