Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir will make their NBC Olympic primetime figure skating analyst debuts in PyeongChang.
Lipinski, the 1998 Olympic champion, and Weir, a two-time Olympian, will join longtime skating broadcast host Terry Gannon in the booth in February.
The trio teamed up for NBCSN figure skating coverage in Sochi, their first Olympics together.
They helped the network post the 10 best weekday daytime audiences in its history and were named NBC Sports’ lead figure skating team later in 2014. Gannon, Lipinski and Weir have also called U.S. and world championships and Grand Prix figure skating events the last three years.
The 1984 Olympic champion Scott Hamilton, an NBC Olympics figure skating analyst since 2002, leads the talent on “Olympic Ice,” a new, live, daily figure skating preview show on NBCSN.
Hamilton, a special contributor and analyst, will be joined by host Liam McHugh and analyst Tanith White, a 2006 Olympic ice dance silver medalist.
Andrea Joyce will reprise her role as a figure skating and short track speed skating reporter in PyeongChang.
