How to catch opening ceremony of the Olympics

That package adds CNBC, MSNBC, and the Golf Channel.

“The striking vista of Copacabana Beach on a Friday evening in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil”, Commack’s own said, “where tonight, amid a mixture of anticipation, excitement, curiosity, controversy and concern, the Games of the 31st Olympiad officially commence, with an Opening Ceremony at storied Maracana Stadium, promising music, dancing and a spirit for revelry that endures in the face of everything else, as a Brazilian signature”.

BRAVO • The primary spot for tennis, beginning Saturday and running through the men’s singles gold-medal match on August 14, the day after it has the women’s final.

Bravo will be the go-to channel for tennis fans. Those are really the sports that are the most popular, that get a lot of attention, have the most established stars: swimming, gymnastics, track and field, diving and beach volleyball.

The coverage actually already is underway, as NBCSN has been showing early stages of soccer play since Wednesday. The Spanish-language Telemundo network isn’t available anywhere, nor are the temporary soccer, basketball or 4K channels.

An estimated 26.5 million people watched NBC’s coverage of the Olympic opening ceremony, a sharp 35 percent drop from the record-setting viewership of the curtain-lifter in London four years ago. You will have to enter in your paid television provider login information if you want to access it for longer than the first-day 30-minute grace period.

NEW YORK (AP) — NBC executives say that pre-Olympics media reports about the Zika virus, polluted water and political unrest in Brazil helped the network’s advertising sales. You’ll also find your HD antenna comes in handy for all sorts of other major sporting and cultural events to which the networks try to restrict access. TSN is also helpful because it outlines full schedules, so you don’t have to miss any of your favourite Olympic sports!

SlingTV is a subscription service that allows you to stream live TV onto your computer or portable devices.

Samsung is offering a new way to experience the Olympics this year, through virtual reality. If not, you could always dish out the $30-$40 for the month – or the $25 for a Sling Blue package – then cancel at the end of the month. You can get Golf Channel and NBC Universo for an additional $5 each. Odds are you’re set on the hardware side because Sling has apps for Apple TV, Amazon Fire, Google Chromecast, Roku, and Xbox One. In fact, both Sling TV and PlayStation Vue offer free weeklong trials, so you can game the system by staggering the trials during the two-week Olympics. You have to use Vue at home, but Vue’s login will also work on the NBC Sports App, in a crafty hack. For those that want to the events, they can be seen on TV on NBC and watched online via NBC Olympics.
