All of them! I am all in, whatever event is being televised. I love the behind the scenes stories of how the athlete has worked their whole life for this chance to represent their country. |

Hockey and downhill skiing. |
| Lorie Kane |

I love to watch all of the Olympics and for sure the CBC TV showing of the Games. They show all countries and not just Canada. They tell the whole story. |

It feels like it was many years ago that I actually got to watch much of the Winter Olympics. In 2006, when it took place over in Italy, it was hard due to the time difference to watch as much as I would have liked. This time, I will be in New Zealand and Australia, so I doubt I will be able to follow it as much as I would like. However, I try to follow all different kinds of skiing: alpine, cross-country, and biathlon. Biathlon is a very exciting sport to follow on TV. |

Any sports actually, but especially looking out for Norwegians! |
| Anna Rawson |
Australia
|
Figure skating and ski jumping. |

Whatever they are showing when I turn on the TV. Playing a sport professionally myself, I respect every single athlete on this planet. |

If I will be watching between practice and competition, I will try to watch speed skating but it will probably be just whatever is on at the time. |
| Marianne Skarpnord |
Norway
|
Cross-Country probably. |
