That's Andre Braugher narrating, right?

Obi Wan Kenobi is narrating what the London Olympics will be about

@6:21 why did NBC stop beginning their Olympic broadcasts like this?

This was the last time we had to wait four years (hell actually longer than that because Sydney was held in September!) to hear Buglar's Dream at the start of the Olympics telecasts on NBC.

JEJ: "Tonight, the Games come home." Me: IT'S ABOUT TIME!!!

In a "single bound!" I heard that!

Who is the author of this amazing theme?

Talking about the 2004 Athens Games marathon...the men's event was the most unfair of all time, as Brazilian Vanderlei Cordeiro de Lima, who was leading the race, was grabbed by a crazy spectator, and then, he wasted lots of time, and instead of the Gold medal, he finished in 3rd place...most outrageous marathon race in the Olympic Games.

Olympic Games are exciting, but there are many events that I consider unfair, because some athletes take much more advantage than others, just because they are much taller than his(her) opponents.

The Olympics are always a part of Greece

Watching while getting ready for Paris 2024. Who’s the female narrator though? The man is clearly David Tennant.

The late games as I call it as Athens applied for the 1996 Olympics which was the centennial but it was bought by coca cola.

20 years later and this intro still sends a shiver down my spine...Timeless!

They need to return home again

Awesome video

That joke about Mozambique and Palau at the end was a bit odd.

NBC Olympics= Golden treasures

That's what I was watching 2000 Olympics brings back my childhood memories when I was a 10 year young kid since elementary school

NBC should keep doing intros like this

It’s 2023 and this still gets me

Does anyone know the name of the music in this tease?

I miss when the intro to the Olympic broadcasting had this much care put into them!!

<<ΖΕΘΣ>>.....<<ΑΘΗΝΑ'>>......<<ΑΠΟΛΛΩΝ>>..... <<ΑΚΟΥΣΕI ΜΕ>>.......<<ΕΡΧΟΜΑΣΤΕ ΣΠΙΤΙ!>>

Οι Αρχαίοι Θεοί μας αψηφούν τις ΗΠΑ με μεγάλη υπερηφάνεια. Μεγάλος Θεός ..."ζεθσ" . ΓΙΑ ΣΕΝΑ !

3 thumbs down.....YOU STUPID BARBARIANS !

Me being 50% Greek, this gives me chills. They need to return to Greece again soon. James Earl Jones narrating this is even more awesome

James Earl Jones....The Voice of ELLAS for all times......ENCORE ! Ξαμεσ Εαρλ Ξονεσ...Τηε Ωοιψε οφ ΕΛΛΑΣ...φορ αλλ τιμεσ.......ΕΝΨΟΡΕ !

Οι Αρχαίοι Θεοί μας αψηφούν τις ΗΠΑ με μεγάλη υπερηφάνεια. Μεγάλος Θεός ..."ζεθσ" . ΓΙΑ ΣΕΝΑ !

Go to 6:22 if you came just to see the musical intro with drone footage of Australia.

Olympics +Greece = Home

Love this

This is something that can never be taken from Greece.

The world was so innocent then.

goddamn this intro always gives me goosebumps

After watching the NBC Tokyo opening intro, why the hell did NBC go away from this type of opening? I really miss the traditional Bugler’s Dream with the gorgeous aerial shots of the host city/country. This opening oozes class, but now it’s just watered down crap.

Darth Fucking Vader.

Great video.

Thanks for posting this. Love these NBC Olympic intros.

London why you make me happy and sad in 2012…Happy for the joy of the games and Sad well the games ended…thank you. Now we join you and coming soon in Paris…2024 and 2028

Jurassic Park.

I have to back in the early 1980s and 1990s.

NBA on nbc memories 1990-2002

Allen Johnson

The 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Greece is one of the greatest full circle moments ever.

Why the Jurassic Park music though?

James Earl Jones has such an awesome voice!

2780 Year ago...... Incredible.

There’s something majestic about this intro that is very unique.

I'm in school

OK I just watched this again 15 years later and it remains perfect. Honestly I don’t think another intro will ever come close. “The 19 year old born in Baltimore” chills.
