U.S. TV figure skating schedule for 2020-21 (NBC, NBCSN, Olympic Channel)

[Simone411]

Sun., Jan. 31 | Best of the 2021 Toyota U.S. Figure Skating Championships | 12 – 2 p.m. | NBC

I'm afraid it never fails during this time (11 a.m. - 1 p.m. central) on my local NBC channel. Broadmoor Baptist Church and The 700 Club takes the place of the figure skating. Oh well. That's how it goes in my area!

 

[jennysk8oboe]

Starting off with Alysa’s short program.

 

[jennysk8oboe]

Sure wish nbc would get some new bumper music!

Sun., Jan. 31 | Best of the 2021 Toyota U.S. Figure Skating Championships | 12 – 2 p.m. | NBC

Forgot about this - anyone know who was shown between Alysa Liu's SP and Vincent Zhou's SP?

ETA:

Followed by Nathan's & Jason's SPs; Knierim/Frazier's FS, Chock/Bates FD, Hubbell/Donohue FD; top 4 ladies' FS (Karen, Amber, Alysa, Bradie) and finishing with Nathan's FS.

Only missed Tennell's SP

 

[A.H.Black]

Has anyone seen any sort of TV and/or streaming schedule for worlds?

 

[Aceon6]

I checked the major sites, but nothing goes out past the 17th. Maybe next week.

 

[Skate Talker]

You can try looking at this streaming schedule from the CBC website in Canada.

https://www.cbc.ca/sports/olympics/winter/figureskating/broadcast

Whatever isn't listed with "Road to the Olympic Games" should be the live event times. ("Road to the Olympic Games" on this page is the streaming of their TV broadcast version.)
Although this far out CBC sometimes get some of it slightly wrong, it should give a really good general idea. Just remember to check the header to see which time zone it's for - when I bring the page up it shows as CST (Central Standard Time), when in reality it will be Central Daylight Time by then and they are actually showing the CDT times. (This is something they always get wrong until some time after we turn the clocks back.)

 

[Aceon6]

This is something they always get wrong until some time after we turn the clocks back.

IIRC, Europe will still be on Standard time whilst North America will be on Daylight/Summer time. That always makes my brain hurt when doing the conversions.

ETA, and it’s Spring Forward, not back.

Agreed - and DOH! of course it's forward!

This is what the World Clock application on one's phone is for...

No, it’s $4.99 a month. If you haven’t already, you can sign up and get a 7 day free trial for worlds.

Does Peacock ever have commentary?

 

[MacMadame]

Does Peacock ever have commentary?

It had it once for one segment of a competition. (Like Pairs Long or something like that.)

ETA it has no ads either so don't pay extra for the "no ads" version.

 

[Braulio]

Date	Competition	NBC
Sat., March 27	Ladies Free Skate	8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT/7 p.m. MT/6:30 p.m. PT

6:30 PM Pacific???

I don't get it, NBCSN will broadcast live coverage only 3 days with events the americans have no real chances of beyond a top 5 at best (pairs free, ladies short & free)

But in the events (men & dance) they are contenders these wont be broadcasted live but on taped delay???

 

[LeafOnTheWind]

NBC still doesn't know how to market US Figure Skating.

Yeah, that doesn’t make any sense.

Also if it starts at 8 PM on the East Coast it should start 5 PM here in the Pacific. 630? That’s odd

 

[Aceon6]

The NBC ladies over the air broadcast in question is taped. They will schedule it so as not to conflict with college basketball. The ladies are live on NBCSN and Peacock.

 

[Lacey]

They will schedule it so as not to skating conflict with college basketball.

Not picking on you @Aceon6, just laughing at the skating conflict with...college basketball. I am a huge fan of any sports, these two just can't seem to ride together.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove]

Hey guys so I looked at my DVR and it’s all set to record eight programs, the short and long programs of all four disciplines on NBC sports network. So do I not need to worry about Peacock then?

Peacock only if I want to watch it live which it might be on NBC sports I’m not sure ...and if I want to see the early groups?

Peacock has it all. The others don’t. If you want to see it all, you’ll go to Peacock.

Did you read my entire post?

LOL that’s why I’m clarifying. Because NBC sports network is showing it all as well. I see short programs of everything and free programs have everything set to record on NBC sports I just did not know if Peacock was offering anything more than that because NBC sports seems to have it all

I absolutely don’t want to download yet another app if I don’t need to.

You're answering your own question and just repeating it again. You can see from the schedule that NBCSN doesn't show the entire event, just the later groups. Look at the length of time NBCSN is showing things.

I'll repeat: if you want to see every skater, you need Peacock.

You need Peacock if you want to watch everyone and you want to watch live. With the exception of ladies and the pairs free, NBCSN will not be live. And they will only show probably the last 2 groups

Thanks firedancer for a reply that was normal, drama-free for a Monday morning and what I was looking for. Have a good one
