I got so bored with the parade that I fast forwarded to real time. Spoiler alert: it is even more boring.
I let my dvr run for an hour and am already out of buffer time. Stupid filler.
The Chinese know how to march in time. Commie home turf!
Latvia reminds me of butternut squash and chocolate. You people saying poop are deranged (or maybe just parents). or maybe it reminds me of a plaid shirt my dorky engineering father had.

I don't know why they just can't show the whole performance. Then just cut away for commercials and come back to the same spot. You don't have to miss stuff just because of commercials!

They probably would have needed to start airing it a 5 pm eastern to get everything on within a decent hour if they showed it all. Not saying they are right in cutting things, but I would think time had something to do with it. I certainly think it fine to question what they chose to cut.

But I heard that the actual ceremony only lasted 2.5 hours. I just feel like they should have been able to show 2.5 hours worth of crap in 4 hours. Too many commercials!

I admit I have no idea how long the actual ceremony was. However you basically would need no commercials to get the whole thing in between 8-11 pm if it was 2.5 hours. They make way to too much money off the commercials to get rid of them. They should go to soccer style and have the sponsor in the corner while the action is happening.
