  Who's watching?

  
  The kids watched opening ceremonies and quickly lost interest. I've watched very little.

  Watched some of the speed skating and skiing. Plus snowboarding. For a Floridian it's kinda foreign.
  
  The sprint skating relays are.... odd

  I've been focused mostly on the skiing. It seems like every time I turn it on, there is figure skating.

  My wife likes the figure skating, during which I catch up on my reading. I'll watch a bit of the skiing and snowboarding, and I like the ski jumping and some of the skeleton and sled events. Watching curling reminds me of going down to the laundromat to watch clothes dry. It's slow-motion bocce on ice. Even shuffleboard is more interesting.

  Keep your stinkin' government hands off my Medicare.

  I haven’t watched at all. I really like the sled events and love the skiing (x-country too) but NBC seems to only show fluffy backstory **** and figure skating.

  Watched a fair amount--like it all but especially skiing and snowboarding events--but NBC's coverage sucked.

  Watched some. Missed the beginning of the opening and closing ceremonies. Missed the women's hockey and some other events we did well in. Stuck mostly to downhill events and some skating, and biathlon.

  I barely watched any. I watched the Nordic Biathlon at Sport Clips and some bob sledding at home.
  
  The bob sledding course was indoors. That's not right.
