They've made it pretty much unwatchable.

There were a couple of events I would like to have seen, but it just wasn't worth the time investment in commercials.

For example, the women's downhill skiing competition was delayed by bad weather, but the Peacock replay kept the time delay, while requiring two to three minutes of commercials every couple of minutes - to watch (or skip through) a time delay. I gave up.
