It seems easy at first glance. I can open Peacock with a tap to watch a gymnastics replay. Or I can tune in to the live broadcast of swimming. The designs have glued all of these disparate platforms together. The tool literally misses the very events it promises to flag for you.
So even if we can technically stream more Olympics than ever before, our expectations are raised, and we feel like we are seeing less of the stuff we want. Another issue with streaming so much of the Olympics is that you need to opt in to what you want to watch next.
But it also means that discovering a new event you like can be trickier. Garrett discovered his favorite Olympic sport, trampoline, when he was watching TV in the middle of the night years ago. Likewise, I discovered curling when I woke up during the Winter Olympics with my hungry baby.
Streaming makes you choose your own destiny, re-creating that same feeling of staring at a wall of content in your Netflix queue, uncertain of what to watch next.
Even when you figure out the event you want to watch, the actual viewing experience of the Olympics is often lacking. Thanks to the hour news cycle, chances are good you know the outcome before you even watch the competition. Under each thumbnail, a headline elaborates on the results of the event. Yes, I can understand that you want to see the biggest moments of the Olympics. Where is the suspense and the drama?
Where is the tension born from overcoming all odds and getting the win? Garrett points out that this problem is made only worse by how Peacock presents many events, cut down into 2- to 4-minute segments. These can be sharply edited, effective summaries of a medal placement.
