I'm not a fan of any competition that does not have an objective winner.
That includes beauty pageants of all types - skateboarding, figure skating, gymnastics, etc.

Example of current generation gap:
Heidi is dog-sitting her bosses dogs. One is named "Stormy," so I said oh like Stormy Daniels?? Heidi said "Who is that? I don't know them, but I think it's like Kylie Jenner's daughter Stormi."
Bottom line: Heidi does not know who Stormy Daniels is, and I don't know who Stormi Webster is.
edit: pics for dog lovers, Jedi on the left and Sormy/Stormi on the right.

I'm not a fan of that type of "competition" though.
Proper olympic skateboarding events would include downhill, slalom, highest ollie, highest vert air, and maybe a pusher race.

Dinner was after 7 p.m.?
Figure skating has some kind of "artistic" gobbledygook. I think there's also some kind of technical skills thing they don't show on TV. 95% of the people watching couldn't explain how the scoring works.

Prime Time TV starts at 7pm here.
I reckon we didn't do that as much back on the east coast, just after we got out here to PHX. Here, BITD, we had local news beginning at 5pm, and when the Fox affiliate started doing local news they started at 4:30.
Nowadays, PHX is an OTA news junkies' paradise:
There's local news on at least one of the 4 channels:
0400-0900 hours
1100-1230
1600-1900
2000-2300
I think some will rerun their 10 o'clocks in the wee hours, but I'm never up for that.

I went to my local after I saw Simmons and mentioned it. A few women got excited and asked if Kendall was with him. I had no idea who that was. They thought I was crazy. Had to look up a photo of her.
BTW…They are Caitlin Jenner’s daughters, not Kardashians.

Dinner at our house has typically been at 7:00 or later. I went through a lot of years where I didn't get home until then. We still usually eat about that time.

I think they did away with technical/compulsory skills part a while back. I remember the competitors had to do things like figure eights.

I watched the replay (on-line) of the men's cross-country mountain bike race this morning. What a grueling race! Steep climbs and technical rock sections with dust everywhere. 1.5 hours of red lining their heart rate. This highlight clip doesn't show much of the climbs.
