I signed up for peacock through Apple App Store. It is super easy to cancel and then subscribe. Due to limited skating this season I just subscribe for a month, cancel, subscribe, cancel. Waiting to subscribe again on the 23rd (unless they decide to air practices earlier). $15 for the limited GP, all of Nationals (with juniors) and all of Worlds is a bargain. Hopefully next season I can just subscribe in the fall and keep it through April.

Johnny Weir mentioned in his Instagram stories today that he will be broadcasting for NBC/NBCSN "from home" (like at 2020 Skate America) along with Tara Lipinski & Terry Gannon; Tanith White will handle the ice dance commentary.

I figured out why the West Coast NBC timeslot for the Ladies Free on Saturday is at 6:30 pm. It's so they can show SNL live at 8:30 pm which they have been doing for the West Coast now for a while. Otherwise they probably would've shown the skating at 8 pm like usual. Since it's all tape delayed anyway I don't mind but I still am mad when they always show the Nationals Ladies Free live on the East Coast but we on the West Coast have to wait 3 hrs. to watch it tape delayed.

I've got my Peacock Premium linked for free to my Xfinity account and don't see any figure skating listed until the Ladies Short Program on Wednesday morning (USA time). Have we confirmed that Peacock isn't showing any practices from Worlds?

Does this mean that Peacock will be streaming the World Team Trophy?

I confess I will not be up at 1AM (CST) to watch live. Is anyone interested in an on-demand watch party at a more reasonable time? I'm not sure how quickly Peacock gets the replays up... perhaps someone knows?

I woke up to watch the WTT Men's SP live and Peacock's replays were already up for the RD and Ladies' SP. The Men's SP replay took about 2 hours to become available (it's up now).

ETA:

Tanith White is hosting/commentating for NBCSN's broadcasts, along with Lipinski/Weir.

 

[Sylvia]

Just realized WTT Day 2 highlights on NBCSN started at 6 pm Eastern time - Pairs SP shown in first half hour.

 

[Wyliefan]

Oh rats, I thought they were airing that at 11:30 again.

 

[Sylvia]

NBCSN's delayed broadcast highlights for Day 3 (Pairs FS, Ladies FS) is scheduled for midnight to 2 am Eastern time (24 hours from now).

 

[Wyliefan]

Unusually for skating highlights, last night's show ran long. The recording on my DVR cut off right before Anna skated!

That's because the broadcast started about 12 minutes late. NBCSN started with replays of Yuzuru's and Nathan's free skates before showing the final 4 Pairs FS and second group of 6 Ladies FS.

 

[BaileyCatts]

They are replaying all the NBCSN broadcasts tonight on Olympic Channel. Was the Day 3 broadcast the only one that ran long?

Same for me. But if you get the Olympic Channel you can still record it tonight.

Thank you for the tip. Indeed they are, show 1 followed by shows 2 and 3.

For me only show 3 got cut off. If you want to be sure you don't miss anything, I think just recording the entire block of 3 shows and adding 15 minutes to the end of show 3 ought to get everything.

Thanks, everyone, for all the helpful info.

NBCSN showed their entire WTT Day 3 broadcast without cutting anything out (it started about 12 mins. late and ran 12 mins. late - refer to my post #141 above) so the Olympic Channel's broadcast should be the normal length.
