Rut Posted 22 April, 2013 Share Posted 22 April, 2013 Sat May 4. 3pm UK time. Spurs v Saints live on TV on ESPN2. Cool. **** NBC have been releasing more stuff about their coverage next year. All sounds VERY promising. Too promising? Info & discussion: http://epltalk.com/2013/04/16/nbc-announces-details-of-premier-league-coverage-plans-for-2013-14/ Main points. All games live on NBC Live Extra Stream (but only if you are with certain TV providers - currently this doesn't include Directv or Dish). Not good. However - and this seems too good to be true... http://sports.yahoo.com/news/nbc-networks-televise-epl-next-180415355--sow.html >> In addition, NBC is making available free to all carriers of NBC Sports Network a package of every EPL game played at 10 a.m. ET on Saturdays - the primary starting time in the Premier League. Called Premier League Extra Time, it is similar to DirecTV's NFL Sunday Ticket I get the NBC sports network on Directv (part of the Sports package I think it is) so this means I get to choose any game live at no additional cost? ie can watch Saints live on TV each week? Am I missing something here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rut Posted 22 April, 2013 Author Share Posted 22 April, 2013 http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/soccer/news/20130416/english-premier-league-nbc-tv-coverage/ >> The network said any game not designated for an NBCU channel will be available on Premier League Extra Time, which is similar to MLB's Extra Innings Package. (There is no charge to customers whose cable systems have NBC Sports Network.) I can't find a catch anywhere here. Basically NBC will be showing EVERY game live on TV at what appears to be no extra cost (if you already have NBC Sports as part of your package). We'll see 'ey?

LVSaint Posted 22 April, 2013 Share Posted 22 April, 2013 Plus points - bye bye Warren Barton and dickhead Eric Wynalda. Welcome some of the pundits mentioned in the article - Gary Lineker?? Will this work out cheaper now? No more subscriptions to the Fox channels/services? "All games live on NBC Live Extra Stream (but only if you are with certain TV providers - currently this doesn't include Directv or Dish). Not good." I'd expect DTV to announce something soon, they're just stalling for a bit hopefully. From reading the comments, it appears that they may offer a similar format of delayed games on TV throughout the day (providing your TV service offers the full range of NBC channels). I really hope they do, as I liked it the way it was. Don't want to have to rely on waking at 7am most Saturdays. I always liked to be able to record from either ESPN/FSP/FSC and watch when I wanted.

From: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/soccer/news/20130416/english-premier-league-nbc-tv-coverage/ >[/font][/color] LV - I'm reading it that 'Premier League Extra Time' is going to be a new TV channel(s) - this means you can watch Saints LIVE every week - or tape it and watch it when you get up. They tend not to use 'press the red button' here so you should be ok to do this. They basically are saying that every game will be live on TV (via existing NBC channels & Premier League Extra Time) and live online (via NBC Live Extra Stream). All subject to availability via your provider etc. I can find no mention of them starting to charge a subscription for NBC Sports Network - so like I said - too good to be true at the moment!

LVSaint Posted 22 April, 2013 Share Posted 22 April, 2013 Yes, this is looking a lot better than when it was originally mooted several months ago. Their 'getting EPL out to as many people as possible' rhetoric might just work. Welcome back NBC, your Olympics debacle might now be put to rest.

Rut Posted 24 April, 2013 Author Share Posted 24 April, 2013 Sounds very promising - although I struggle to believe NBC won't screw this up somehow. They seem to be giving it a good shot at doing it right. Seem to be... I guess their angle on showing every game for (relatively) free is to try and get some viewers and therefore more ad revenue? We often forget how low the viewing figures for UK football are in the USA (timezone doesn't help). NBC Sports Network is available on Dish & Directv and most cable companies: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NBC_Sports_Network All good at the moment...

NY Saint Posted 5 May, 2013 Share Posted 5 May, 2013 Five improvements NBC could make to the lives of fans of the EPL: 1) Avoid introducing the cringeworthy deep-throat voiceover promos Fox uses 2) Employ thoughtful commentators that add insight to the game. Preferably individuals that can describe a goal being scored without simply resorting to bellowing the players name. 3) Provide access to all games even with a nominal subscription fee on cable or satellite. 4) Include a comprehensive highlights package with knowledgeable pundits in studio - not Eric Wynalda, Ian Wright and definitely not that ***** that spouts "Onion bag" at every opportunity. 5) Integrating MLS and European league football is fine as long as the program is not dominated by Europa and Champions League nonsense. We've just got to make sure we're around to enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVSaint Posted 30 May, 2013 Share Posted 30 May, 2013 They are including 'Match of the Day' to their highlights programming. Don't get too excited, it's 'based' on the UK version, so will probably end up being ****e. I'll stick to downloading the real deal Saturday evenings, which I've done every week this last season. Really looking forward to next season, just hoping that all these channels are available to us all via the TV... Still hanging on to FSC for Sky Sports News though. They are switching back to the 4PM PST live broadcasts again instead of just in the morning and late at night, from next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rut Posted 14 June, 2013 Author Share Posted 14 June, 2013 As expected there is potentially a hitch for some of us. At the moment Directv hasn't confirmed yet if they are going to have the 'Premier League Extra Time' channels. Read the comments (especially by 'the gaffer') on this page. Good information. They prob will end up showing them (they are forever going on about how 'if you love sport you need Directv'). Why the drama then? They seem good at that. http://worldsoccertalk.com/2013/04/17/nbc-sports-to-take-the-premier-league-to-the-next-level-in-the-united-states/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LVSaint Posted 1 July, 2013 Share Posted 1 July, 2013 A quick mention regarding Directv customers who subscribe to Fox Soccer Channel>>> So today I see they have completely dropped Sky Sports News from FSC. W@nkers.... Did some digging and it appears that when the Fox channels morph into Fox Sports 1 later this summer, they will be including a Sky Sports News broadcast, one time a day, at 4am! Called Directv to cancel FSC and just found out that since January 1st this year, FSC was not in the Sports Package anymore, that I had been paying for. It had been a FREE channel. Fortunately got 6 months' worth of subscription credited. So, for those that had been paying for the Sports Package (solely for FSC) for the last 6 months, make sure that you don't get charged for it! So...when Fox Sports 1 starts up this summer, it'll include Champions League, Eng internationals, FA Cup as well as one Sky Sports News a day. Hopefully it's free...

DanW Posted 1 July, 2013 Share Posted 1 July, 2013 At least you got 6 months credited. Thanks for the heads up - I didn't even know FSC was changing to FS1. I guess it's so they can show more than just soccer or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NY Saint Posted 18 July, 2013 Share Posted 18 July, 2013 Just had a chat with Comcast and they're not even aware Premier League broadcast rights have been bought by NBC... FSC is part of a sports package I'm paying $9 a month for and will drop that once NBC starts.

I think we all get the idea now... Enjoy the season everyone. 3-1 to Saints tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still not showing up where it is supposed to in the on demand menu under sports and leisure... I'm holding out hope it'll magically appear by the game tomorrow. Otherwise it's back to the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cascadia Saint Posted 17 August, 2013 Share Posted 17 August, 2013 The clock turned midnight and 'premier league' appeared as an option in the on demand section of Comcast! Free HD footy here we come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diggers Posted 20 August, 2013 Share Posted 20 August, 2013 This might sound a bit lazy but could anyone please clear my mind and tell me for sure if the Saints games are all on NBC if I have Comcast Infinity here in Florida? I'm a US newbie and still trying to get my barings. - cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 20 August, 2013 Share Posted 20 August, 2013 I see Saints v Sunderland has been upgraded from Extra Time to NBC Sports Network. Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Select Sports and Fitness, then Premier League and you will find them. Last weekend, the live games only showed up about 10 minutes before kickoff - and you could only watch the game from the beginning with no fast forward or rewind, and there is no way to jump to live... I did find out that by using the Page up and down buttons on the remote, you can jump 5 minutes forwards or back - but if you jump past where the game is actually at live, it'll throw you back out to the menu. After the game is over though, it does show up (with full controls) to watch on demand in the same menu. They don't make it easy, but hey, the games are there and free!

FFS! Hopefully just teething trouble and it gets smoothed over soon. Can anyone with Directv give an account of how it was for them? I hope they are telling us which Extra time channel will show what with enough warning so I can set the right one to record. Don't want to get up at stinking 7am every Saturday....
