If you want to discuss what the coverage of the games looks like on TV, I have created a thread on TV Live's Discord channel, so please join there.

But who isn't excited for the games themselves, beyond what the TV coverage looks like? There will be performances, results, medal counts, ceremonies, and so on! Let's chat about this year's games beyond TV coverage.

The best Winter Olympics was 2006 because

1. BBC Two reused the 2000 Christmas ident which was the first time they'd done that sort of thing i.e. bringing back idents from a previous set
2. Top Gear Winter Olympics special

in hindsight, the concept of 2s throwing themselves off a cliff is darker than I remembered...
