How to Watch the 2018 Olympics
If you have cable TV and a full range of NBC channels, it’s easy. But for everyone else, being fully immersed in the winter sports extravaganza requires a little more planning and ingenuity. Fortunately, not really.
First things first: the opening ceremony. For the first time, NBC will broadcast live the Olympic Games Opening Ceremony. But since the Olympics are being held in South Korea this year, “live” for Americans means very early in the morning at 6:00 am ET on February 9th. NBC website and mobile app. However, there will be no comments – for this you need to wait for the broadcast in prime time. It’s up to you to decide for or against.
If you want to watch the opening ceremony – or any other prime time event – on TV at the same time as the rest of the US, your best bet is not streaming, but the digital antenna . No streaming lag, no cable logon searches. But this applies only to broadcasting, and not to the entire set of cable channels.
If you have the subscriber authentication information, you’re in luck – for the first time, all NBC broadcast content will be streamed during daytime and prime time via the NBC Sports app for Amazon Fire, Apple TV, Chromecast. , and Roku. (If you don’t have credentials, you can stream your first 30 minutes without authentication and 5 minutes every next day.)
Alternatively, via Hulu with Live TV, subscribers to this service will have full access to NBC’s live and on-demand broadcasts. That’s $ 39.99 a month, which might be worth it if you’re serious about the Olympics. You can at least take one week’s free trial and see if that’s right for you.
All it takes to get your fill of winter sports is a little preliminary planning. Order this antenna, start requesting login to borrow, and request a complete shutdown from February 9th to 25th.
