    Hey Battlelords, i hope yall are enjoying Paris 2024 as much as I am. Jamie Battle also runs @PiplupJames, which is my new channel as this one has become more of a legacy channel. So please subscribe to the new channel today for more of my adventures.
    Now. The new intro for Primetime In Paris is VERY GOOD and tries to be like Marvel and it’s working. NBC although not perfect, really stepped up their game for this Olympics.

    These intros were the best. NBC stopped doing them in this format. Idk why, but it was a mistake.

    NBC has done a tremendous job covering the Games... Hands down the best network that can do so!

    I hate that they don’t do this anymore. I always used to love the daily opening like this. Everything is always so abbreviated now, like what’s the rush.

    NBC has the best promos hands down, but this was underwhelming. Watch the NBC intro to Athens.... chills.

    Costas was interviewing athletes while having Pink eye, a very contagious eye disease. Gross!. NBC nailed it.

    I HATE how they started cutting the opening Olympic theme to just 1/10th of it's length for "time"
    It cheapens their broadcast, and now, there broadcast are total trash made as cheaply as possible.
    The video segments use cheap commercial library music instead of amazing music from composers film work. The closing credits are atrocious, they use the same licensed song now every games to save $$$.
    By far the most extensive production NBC did was for Atlanta. Everything else went further down hill with every games.

      After Dick Ebersol retired (after Beijing 2008, one of the best games ever) coverage went downhill. Almost every commercial break went to a word from local stations, cutting away from ceremonies (Vancouver 2010), no longer using “The Adventures of Brisco County theme” for the next day’s events & of course cutting the opening intro.
      And we’re stuck with NBC until Brisbane 2032 and the Olympic Channel is going bye bye after today (Sept. 30, 2022) ☹️

      @@MrJamieBattle yes Beijing was the last good broadcast.
      I actually stopped watching their coverage after Beijing and recently saw their coverage for Tokyo and it was abysmal.
      Wow I did not know today was the last day for the Olympic channel. 😔
      I'm hope in 6 years when the Los Angeles games come around they might improve.
      Doubtful.

      Yeah Tokyo 2021 stunk. We was lucky to even have that and Beijing 2022 was marred by that skater and Putin just staring down at Ukraine’s team. Just hope for the best for Paris ‘24.
      The only good thing they did recently is that they aired the opening ceremonies LIVE as it occurred for Tokyo & Beijing.
