Graphics are quite nice 

they are actually really really good

Graphics are very similar to the previous, using what looks to me like the exact same typeface. No complaints from me though, they're nice. Usually it's much more of a redesign than this.

 It’s a very smooth start, I remember the broadcasting on day -2 being a terrible mess in Rio, took a while to sort out.  Even in Tokyo the commentaries took a while to fix.

I dislike the fact that they have to write "Olympic Games" on the scoreboard graphics, are the five rings not iconic enough?

The graphics package does seem to be very similar to Tokyo's. Personally, I loved Tokyo's graphics. I thought it was a very well thought out design. The font choice, colors, and layout is simple yet not boring. It looks like Paris has made some small modifications (Eiffel Tower at the right) to make the graphics iconic for Paris. I do wonder why they replaced the Olympic Rings with "Olympic Games" on the scoreboard. The only change I'm not a fan of.

 

I am watching on nbcolympics.com and the streaming is working very well.

Will bet that has been focus-grouped and market researched at some point and…..

Language coverage is good - 9 different options for Argentina, 7 for Spain.

yeah, very important to avoid Italian commentators in Football and a few other sports
