Starting August all 380 games of the EPL season will be broadcast on NBC channels. That breaks down to 20 on NBC, 154 on NBC Sports, 76 on Telemundo or Mun2 (in Spanish), and 22 on other channels. The other games will be part of Premier League Extra Time, a package of overflow channels made available to cable systems who carry NBC Sports.
Arlo White, who currently calls MLS games on NBCSN, will handle play by play from England. Former Premier League players Lee Dixon and Graeme Le Saux will handle analysis. Former England national team star Gary Lineker will be a special contributor. NBCSN plans 600 hours of original and weekly studio programming. Rebecca Lowe, a fixture on European soccer coverage in Europe, will host a studio show from NBC's international broadcast center in Stamford, Conn. But all game production will be done on-site in England, with NBC using England-based announcers on games White doesn't work. http://bigstory.ap.org/article/nbc-networks-televise-epl-next-season http://m.si.com/2793096/nbc-outlines-vast-premier-league-coverage-with-new-tv-deal/ -- -- TV or Not TV ....
