Watch the 2018 Winter Olympics: Here’s what’s on today
It’s the most wonderful time of the bi-annual year — it’s time for the 2018 Winter Olympics!
The two-week long event, this year taking place in PyeongChang South Korea, has officially kicked off, so that means it’s all sports, all the time…or all sports when you’re awake and able to watch them. Thanks to timezones, the Olympics are happening live anywhere from three to 10 hours off from where you are in the world, and chances are you aren’t going to wake up at 3 a.m. to watch them (but if you do, mad props, you deserve a medal for that).
In total, NBC will air 176 hours of Olympic coverage, which is…a lot. If you’re not glued to NBCOlympics.com every single hour of every day, NBC will be airing a re-broadcast of the major events nightly at 8 p.m. This means that you’ll get major events, and highlights, brought right from PyeongChang to your choice or streaming device of choice. What better way to watch the Olympians than in the comforts of your own home in your pajamas and on your couch? If watching the Olympics were a sport, we’d definitely all get a medal.
Go ahead and cancel your plans every night between now and February February 25th, and here’s what events are happening tonight (all times are Eastern):
