They also do these packages a lot on youtube, where they're not time limited. In the time it takes the worst people to peck out a complaint on the internet, they could find and watch those.

To be fair I don't think any amount of information would have made that Jericho/Atlantis match good.

That's why the Olympics are mostly video packages about the athletes

No, it's packages about 1/3 of the athletes, which often don't include the top athletes and usually only include the nation that produces the broadcast

poo poo like this is actually why I never enjoyed American Ninja Warrior. I don't care nearly as much about who has the biggest comeback/marketable story as who is excelling at the event.

I watched a season of ANW three or four years ago and every episode filled with those packages and being TWO hours long made it into a brutal slog. So much fluff compared to the Japanese version.

STOP DOING HEROIN
Every ANW video package is like "my 3-year-old daughter died of cancer, and in her final breaths she told me to go fulfill my dream of being a Ninja Warrior, and that's why I carry her ashes in my necklace so she's always with me"

That's the NBC production way, which assumes that the audience is swinging wildly from crying in inspirational tears to cheering madly and back every five minutes or so. It's ruined their Olympic coverage, made the Gladiators reboot unwatchable, that Gladiators show the Rock did was overproduced and unwatchable. It's garbage and I hate it.

Sometimes you don't need to know everything about someone who's going to be gone in fifteen seconds. Not everyone needs a mission or a movement or #TeamWhatever or #FartStrong. Let someone be a bum and move onto the next one.

It’s not an NBC thing, just TV in general. They recently relaunched Gladiators UK, which is an hour without commercials, but they have to talk to everyone after every little thing they do. At least they don’t cut out entire events like the NBC gladiators reboot did.

Those moments almost made all the fluff worthwhile. AEW should do a 5 minute informative package on some random jobber and then have him get squashed by Wardlow in 20 seconds.
