Since I'll have to wake up very early in the morning to watch it, I'm not sure on whether I want to or not.

I don't even know when it is, I'm assuming it's sometime this weekend, in which case exam Friday, exam Saturday, and driving home Sunday.

no.

No, I'm not watching the Olympics as a whole so I really could care less about the opening.

In the US it'll probably be broadcast on a tape delay, due to the time difference, so commercials can be inserted without the viewer missing anything.

Yes. I'll be tuned in like a drone. Commercials are the best part. TV tells me what to buy so I can survive. I'd say, without TV I would die.
