NBC Universal will present more than 835 hours of Vancouver Olympic Winter 2010 Games coverage - representing the most total hours ever for a Winter Olympics, more than the last two Winter Olympics combined, and the most live hours ever for a Winter Games. The Vancouver Games, which will be the first Winter Olympics to be presented entirely in high definition, commence with the Opening Ceremony on Friday, February 12.

The more than 835 total hours of coverage on NBC Universal platforms, including NBC, USA, MSNBC, CNBC and Universal HD, nearly doubles the coverage from Torino (419) and is more than Torino and Salt Lake City (375.5) combined (794.5).

Following is a breakdown of the Vancouver Olympics coverage on the NBC Universal networks:

• The six NBC Universal platforms, including NBC, USA, MSNBC, CNBC and Universal HD, will offer the most in-depth coverage in history for a Winter Olympics. The more than 835 hours is nearly double Torino (419) and is more than Torino and Salt Lake City (375.5) combined (794.5).

• Over the 17 days of the Vancouver Games (Feb.12-28), NBCU's coverage will average nearly 50 hours per day—that's more coverage in one day than all of the 1976 Innsbruck Winter Olympics (43.5) on ABC.

• The networks of NBCU will provide coverage of every one of the 15 Winter Olympic sports.

• Vancouver will be the first Winter Olympics broadcast 100-percent in high definition, including the first-ever online HD.

• The 2010 Vancouver Olympic Winter Games represent the 12th Olympics broadcast by NBC, the most Olympic broadcasts by any U.S. network (ABC is second with 10).
