US Olympics TV Coverage

The perfect example of why the Olympics coverage on US TV absolutely blows.  In the hope of watching some athletics today, this is what I tuned into:

Yep, that is some multiple gold-medal winning US swimmer making a cringeworthy appearance on Sesame Street.  And this was on during the live show.  It's the kind of thing that I would expect during the absolutely awful and bloated primetime highlights show every evening - where only the US athletes, and only the US medal-winning athletes at that, get featured.  And in a LOT of detail.  Good luck seeing highlights of any non-US winners.
