At some point in the last 20 years or so, the highlights aspect of highlights shows became diluted by analysis and sponsored elements and other chatter. And while many highlights are available on the Internet, there’s no comprehensive collection of all the stuff worth seeing in an easily digestible package.
As of tomorrow, there is. The ‘Lights debuts on NBC Sports Network, a 20-minute loop of highlights and only highlights played six consecutive times from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. ET.
There’s no studio, no anchor, no chatter. Just a voice narrating the highlights and a home screen that looks like an iPad app.
So take 20 minutes tomorrow morning between 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. ET and check it out.

Gayke Gayden sez: I sure will
sounds awesome
I’m currently unemployed, and looking for a job. I have applied to a bunch of places online. I can call and follow up with them tomorrow, so I probably will not be awake anytime between 7-9am. NBC sports will have one less viewer. I realized I will be missed.
We here in Canada have a station called “the Score” and it has the best highlights I’d say in the world because they take their time and do it right. Maybe NBC and the Score could become friends? Like TSN and ESPN? But cooler of course. Way cooler.
As will I.
But how will I know what to think without some talking head with a double windsor knot telling me what to think?!
I hope Stewart Scott isn’t narrating.
