Starting with the previous night--
- Due to either luck or design, the “lower third” graphics in the Men’s Synchronized Swimming, combined with their small swimsuits, made it look like we were watching Skinemax for awhile.
- I see that the Peacock decided to bury the Men’s Gymnastics implosion late into the evening.
- OMG - HOW MANY TIMES WILL THEY SHOW US MICHAEL PHELPS' MEAN FACE???
- If the women's gymnastics finals looked a little slicker than some of the other competitions, that's because it was "curated" and not live. The results were announced on social media before the broadcast even began.
- The gymnasts always have some makeup, but at the finals, it appears a paintball gun was involved.
- In a toss-up women’s swim that was hyped endlessly, the Peacock put up a split screen of the swimmers at the start and Michael Phelps sitting in a chair. One of these is more interesting than the other...
