WHEN IS THE OPENING CEREMONY?

The opening ceremony for the XXIII Winter Olympic Games in Pyeongchang starts at 8PM KT (6AM ET / 3AM PT here in the US).

This is where things get tricky. In the past, NBC has refused to show the opening ceremony live — the last time was the 2010 Vancouver Winter Games — instead holding it for Friday night when it can air during the more advertiser-friendly prime-time slot.

This year, the broadcasting company — which holds the exclusive rights to the Olympics in the US — is compromising: the main broadcast on the NBC TV channel will still be at 8PM ET on Friday, 14 hours after the ceremony has actually occurred in South Korea. But there will be a stream of the live event available online through NBC’s various apps (including NBC, NBC Sports, and NBC’s Olympics website).

NBC is one of the only broadcasters across the world to intentionally tape-delay events, so this practice left US viewers in a strange place: lagging behind the rest of the world as NBC waits until timing is more convenient for the network.
