NBC has finally released its full Olympic schedule. For those who thought they would enjoy both TV and online coverage of gymnastics (or just go for online and escape the Head Trauma Trio), HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Your plans have been foiled. Despite their boastings of over 2200 hours of online coverage, marquee events such as diving, swimming, and gymnastics will not be live online. Not to mention that Mac users such as myself are shut out, non-Americans are shut out, and non-Vista users are shut out. Good job, NBC.

I'm doing WAG because that's pretty much what I pay attention to and what this blog is about. Check local listings and all that jazz. Oxygen is one of those basic cable channels in the vein of Lifetime, except with not as many movies that have women having the crap beaten out of them by men. It just loves to show a TV show called Snapped, about women who kill men. That's empowerment.
