NBC's 2012 London Olympics Trailer

We have NBC’s Olympics Trailer. It’s a pretty good one. The only drawback is seeing no-talent hack Ryan Seacrest, but you do have that iconic moment from 2008 of Bela Karolyi all over Bob Costas from the Communist China Games.

This tells you what NBC’s coverage will entail plus introduce you to the athletes who will be heavily promoted (Michael Phelps, Ryan Lochte, Kerri Walsh Jennings, Missy Franklin and Jordyn Wieber). If some of those names aren’t familiar to you, don’t worry, they will be.

I like this promo. Gets you ready for the Olympics in July.

And of course, I’ll be keeping an eye on what NBC does and how it handles this Olympiad as opposed to others in the past.
