The 2024 Summer Olympics are on its way! I think it's pretty cool that Washington has one of the highest number of Olympians who will compete for the gold, silver, and bronze.

WHEN DO THE PARIS OLYMPICS START?

Get ready for the Summer Olympics set for Paris from July 26th thru August 11th.

GO TEAM USA!

WHERE TO WATCH THE OLYMPICS?

Paris 2024 olympic games will air on NBC, its TV home for since as long as I remember.

When I was a teen during the early 90s, one of my uncles was living in Atlanta, and we went to visit him when it just so happened that the Olympics were in town. I love that I have the memory of watching the Olympics with my family.

You can also watch the Paris Olympics on the Peacock channel app.

I read somewhere that NBC expects to air nearly 5,000 hours of the games, with a total of 329 medal competition games.
