How to Watch 2024 Paris Summer Olympics on TV

You can watch the Summer Olympics on TV with any basic cable package that includes NBC, USA and the aforementioned channels above. Here are a few other ways to watch the Olympics on TV without cable.

What Time Do the Olympics Start? Broadcast Viewing Schedule

As a dedicated gamer, I’m excited to share that I’ll be glued to NBC for the Olympics! Every day, starting at 3 a.m. ET (midnight PT), you’ll find me tuning in for uninterrupted coverage until 3 p.m. ET (6 p.m. PT). After catching up on local news, I’ll be back for the nightly three-hour Olympic primetime show at 8 p.m. ET/PT. Here, I’ll get a behind-the-scenes look and relive the day’s thrilling highlights. The Olympics never end for me!

Instead of “Telmundo will have a two-hour recap show in Spanish, each weekday at 9 p.m. PT/12 a.m. ET,” you could also say “Every weekday at 9 p.m. Pacific Time and 12 a.m. Eastern Time, Telemundo airs a two-hour long Spanish recap show.”

Based on my personal experience, I’ve found that coordinating meetings with colleagues or clients in Paris can be quite the challenge due to the significant time difference. Living in New York (EST), I often have to start early morning calls at 9 or 10 am their time, which means starting my workday before 4 am! This is a far cry from the more relaxed start times I’m accustomed to.
