I wish TPTB had called it something else. Peacock conjures up porn channel for me.

That speaks much more about you than about "TPTB".

Wasn't I talking about me?

Indeed you were.

Peacock Premium - came across these scheduled qualifying events listed under Sports / Figure Skating Ice Skating:

I saw the listing yesterday but I don't see them now.

I saw the listing yesterday but I don't see them now.

Same here - I saw the events listed yesterday and there were a couple of junior events scheduled for today but now everything is gone.

In addition to coverage of the Championships, the 2021 U.S. Figure Skating Championship Series presented by Toyota will debut on Peacock on Dec. 22. The competition, which will be conducted virtually, enables junior and senior athletes from across the country to qualify for the U.S. Championships.

Peacock Premium - came across these scheduled qualifying events listed under Sports / Figure Skating Ice Skating:

No signs of this on Peacock! Now 8:03am. Sr Men were to have started today @ 8am.
Another repeat of the ISP Points downloading troubles?

USFS' Fan Zone lists the virtual competition as beginning on Tuesday, December 22 so it looks like the "live" streams on Peacock Premium were listed prematurely/are not available yet.

I would expect a press release sometime today (or tomorrow?) with more information on the streaming schedule, etc. I can start a competition thread in the Kiss & Cry section when more is known.

 

[MacMadame]

I see something on my Peacock but trying to watch it doesn't work. There is Sr. Ladies' Free Skate 1 which claims to have started 2:15 ago but when I watch it, I just get a spinning cursor. There is also Jr Ladies Freee Skate 1 which it claims starts at 1:30pm my time (4:40pm on East Coast) No other items come up.

Also, I got these from typing F into the search box. They go away if I type FI! They seem to be listed as under "Ice Skating" and not "Figure Skating" but typing in ICE doesn't bring them up either. Neither does "U.S. F" (For US Figure Skating)

If anyone figures out how the various events are classified, please let us know!

@MacMadame, refer to my post #88 earlier in this thread (link: https://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/th...rting-in-fall-2020.107653/page-3#post-5916132) and my update/clarification post above yours today.

I read your posts and posted mine to give more details.

OK, I tried searching just now by "skate" and I'm seeing several events. Watching "Senior Men's Free Skate 1" now! @Sylvia you may want to give it a try!

ETA: Senior Pairs FS #1, and Senior Men's FS #1 and #2 are available to watch now; Jr Ladies #1 doesn't seem to be ready to view yet.

Thanks. I used skate and several events popped up. Using figure or ice didn't get me anywhere.

 

[sk9tingfan]

What's disconcerting is that different people get different results no matter what they do. I am not seeing any future events using any combo of the suggestions above. I do get past events including the GP.

 

[maureenfarone]

I always thought the NBC Gold setup was a pain in the neck but Peacock seems totally random and stupid.

Very odd. I just type "skate" in the search and get 5 rows of current, past, and future events.

I'll try again. thx

You are a genius! I used the quotation marks and Bingo!

I just turned this on and looked like I missed the first 10 or so skaters. It won’t let me rewind as it’s “live” guess I will have to wait til afterwards. I am kind of surprised there are so many skaters actually participating to tell you the truth.
Edit - Since I wasn’t here at the beginning I have no idea of the skating order or how many skaters are in Senior Ladies Group 1. Time will tell I guess!

 

[haribobo]

There are 47 total senior ladies split into 4 groups, so about 12 per group. The results of each group are right after the last skater finishes, and you should be able to go watch senior ladies group A/1 now on replay if you type "Skate" in the search bar for Peacock.

Thanks! I will go back and watch group 1 after group 2. Are links for groups 3 and 4 posted? I didn’t see them earlier?

 

[haribobo]

Not yet, check at noon and 1:30 for those, as per the list of times above...

 

[meggonzo]

I saw the link for group 3 when I searched.

Is anyone posting the results? Here or another thread? I missed the first group.

I put a little update in the thread in the Kiss and Cry. Just in case anyone sees it as a spoiler.

The only one that is missing right now is group 4.

Sr. Men's Free Skate 2 (Group B) is live now.

I really never had problems with the NBC Sports Gold, but Peacock is getting cancelled if things don't improve. I can't find anything but "Skate America" regardless of what I search on TV> I guess I can watch on my laptop, but .... If I can't watch it on the SmartTV then I am just passing on this season!
