13	What NBC did right during the Olympics	His occasional presence in prime time was still jarring, but some of his pre-taped daytime segments were harmless fun.

13	Ryan Seacrest gets thumbs up for Olympics coverage; ‘The Voice’ changes	Sure, he isn’t a sports guy and sports fans mocked his E!-style questions. But he did what NBC wanted him to do: appeal to the pop culture fans, not the hard-core track-and-field aficionados.
13	Olympics 2012: Looking back on London's best and worst	If you thought it was tough watching NBC the past two weeks, you should have been in Great Britain. The BBC blokes made Ryan Seacrest look like Jim McKay.
13	London Olympics 2012: Spice Girls, One Direction, George Michael & Others Close The Games: Watch	During NBC’s telecast of the London Olympics closing ceremony, Ryan Seacrest called the Spice Girls‘ performance the worst-kept secret of the all-star A Symphony Of British Music concert.
10	Ryan Seacrest to co-host Olympics closing ceremony	Seacrest has gotten whacked in a few corners of the press, though a Hollywood Reporter-sponsored poll determined that most viewers were satisfied with his performance. I'd throw in with their lot: No one expected him to go to London to offer a detailed analysis of the women's 4 X 400.
10	Olympics recap, day 13: Usain Bolt makes a big splash... as do U.S. women divers	During his semi-regular hazing* last night on NBC’s primetime coverage of the Olympic Games, Ryan Seacrest was either forced to say, or voluntarily chose to say, that certain female Olympic champions had blown up Twitter by delivering something called “buzzable bests.”

In Touch magazine is claming Today Show anchor Matt Lauer is unhappy with NBC’s decision to include American Idol host Ryan Seacrest in covering the Olympics. But a source close to the show tells RumorFix this rumored tension between the two is completely false!
07	'American Idol:' Ryan Seacrest mentions hosting 'Today Show' from London	The host of "American Idol," Ryan Seacrest has garnered many fans throughout his career. He has a wonderful personality, and he has become an integral part of the singing competition.

03	I Wish I Didn’t Know That Ryan Lochte Peed In The Olympic Pool	You can’t see me, but I’m making my ‘disappointed’ face right now. Ryan was being interviewed by Ryan Seacrest on-air, and when he was asked if swimmers ever pee in the pool, Ryan Lochte said, “Of course. We always do.
03	Ryan Lochte, 2012 Olympic gold winner, admits to urinating in the pool	Not during the races, he told U.S. broadcaster Ryan Seacrest — "but I sure did in warmup."
03	London Olympics: Ryan Lochte, meet TMZ	He also did a radio interview with Ryan Seacrest, in which he confessed that he urinated in the warm-up pool at the Olympics. TMZ picked up the story and blasted it across the Web within an hour.
03	Ryan Seacrest is poster child for criticism of NBC’s Olympic TV	Through no fault of his own, Seacrest became the first big target for critics and coverage-haters, an instant symbol of NBC’s self-referential and often overly American-centric tone.
02	Media-Mind: Why NBC Is Allowed to Ruin the Olympics	Viewers can yell and kick and scream about not being able to watch events live, and not showing games live certainly is an archaic idea in a society that lives on fast food, Twitter and high-speed Internet. Waiting is no longer part of the social vocabulary and NBC is telling everyone that they have to.
02	Ryan Seacrest on Olympics: 'You can't please everyone'	Ryan Seacrest is part of the team (and that means tweeting getting down with the Fab Five), but he doesn't sound too worried about it.
02	The Morning Fix: Bader jumps from ABC to NBC. Grading Seacrest.	Ryan Seacrest, shown with U.S. swimmer Lia Neel, isn't getting high marks from all the critics for his Olympic work.
02	Ryan Seacrest scarce, excessive at Olympics	In prime time, Seacrest's role is even less clear. NBC's decision to use his pre-taped heart to heart with Michael Phelps and fam in place of Akram Khan's tribute to the 2005 London bombing victims during the opening ceremony probably didn't help - through no fault of his own, Seacrest became the first big target for critics and coverage-haters, an instant symbol of NBC's self-referential and often overly American-centric tone. Phelps went on to fall short in his first event, as did favored gymnast Jordyn Wieber soon after Seacrest interviewed her and teammate Gabby Douglas. A Seacrest curse? Not exactly. On Tuesday, Seacrest showed up in prime time, using a pre-taped interview with Phelps and his coach to introduce the men's 200 meter butterfly; Phelps took silver and tied for the world record number of Olympic medals (he would break the record later that day).

01	Ryan Seacrest on NBC’s Olympic Coverage: ‘You Can’t Please Everyone’	As I’ve learned from all my years in television, you can’t please everyone. I believe the huge ratings NBC has drawn for the Olympics speak for themselves.
