Worst I can recall seeing!
I agree. This is stupid.
The Chinese did great. I could not believe how bad this was. I hope the games are better.
I turned it on hoping to enjoy it and had to switch the channel. Too long and too boring.
Don’t forget to hit the tip jar for the vanity. :)
I got some time before it’s on here, so I’ll set the DVR and watch it when I’m about to go to sleep. If it’s as bad as I think, I should have a new program to fall asleep to any time I want.
tons of kids jumping on institutional beds. No parents.
Cruella De Ville, Voldemort, Captain Hook, and those black hooded thingies chase the kiddies around.
Mary Poppins scares the NHS monsters away.
A big giant baby flutters.
hoooo boy.
Have we dipped the U.S. Flag to anyone yet??
No Cable (best decision on the year) and wouldn’t be watching it anyways.
I’m trying to think of a word to describe this whole “Bedlam” opening fiasco....
..Something between “bizarre” and “stupid”... perhaps with a dash of “macabre” and a pinch of “grotesque”.
...Any suggestions out there?
Can you imagine what it would have looked like if Obungo had secured the Olympics for Chicago?
Does anyone even want to try?
A tribute to their socialized healthcare system and an homage to 0bamacare WTF!
And to the theme song of “The Exorcist”?
I really did want to see a pageant of British History like the Greeks and Chinese did. It goes back 2000 years!
Virtually nothing from Stonehenge to 1820.
Some of the pop culture stuff was fun, but it was almost the whole thing.
In my time zone it will start in about half an hour, I think I’ll stop the recording and watch a movie instead.
Maybe I can find a DVD copy of the Australian Olympics, best one ever.
Sadly, probably the worse opening ceremonies ever. The Communist Chinese must be proud of this British production.
The tribute to technology with June and Kenny..or whomever they were..was simply awful.
The athletes are coming in now and apparently the queen picks at her nails and pays no attention when the Brits march in. Uh oh.
It was a mess!
"Jerusalem" I know by heart. It is the English equivalent of the Battle Hymn of the Republic. I was wondering if they would play it in the opening ceremonies. It was heartening to see it given such a prominent place.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

There is no way they could compete with the Chinese modern technology.
I think giving a history of England is interesting, but I can't say I cared for the music when they were forging steel. I think it is good for this generation to learn something of history as THEY DON'T KNOW IT.
I don’t like the torch either! To low, and “How many Brits does it take to light an Olympic torch?”
Damn leftist HAD to make it political... oh well.
And the sodimite torch barer kissing the other sodimite. Yeah, thank God the next games are in Rio and not Chicago. One could only imagine...
