NBC is free over the air. NBC.com and the NBC Sports app will also have replays. NBC has exclusive Olympic broadcast rights in America. The network spreads that out to Peacock, USA, CNBC and NBCSN. Those linear channels are needed because of the Games’ sprawl and volume (116 medal events in 19 days). And some tape-delay coverage is required because of the time differences — six hours ahead of Eastern Time, nine for Pacific. Here’s how that all breaks down: NBC for “Primetime in Milan“ roundup and “Olympic Late Night” every night. CNBC for curling and additional coverage, after its business programs air. NBC Sports Network for “Gold Zone” whip-around and multiview presentation. NBCOlympics.com and the NBC Sports app with pay-TV login credentials. On the main channel, NBC’s daytime window is scheduled for at least five hours of Olympic focus each day, with Rebecca Lowe as the host. Later, “Primetime in Milan” has three hours of nightly highlights. Mike Tirico anchors the program once his Super Bowl responsibilities are clear (quite literally, the same night as the game). Snoop Dogg and Stanley Tucci have been announced as celebrity guests.
