However, it is entertaining, much more so imo than the summer Olympics. Lots of people flying through the air, hurtling down hills at insane speeds and sliding about. All good, light entertainment which can pass the time.

Although I'll miss the (ice) hockey being a serious affair. Canada proving its dominance was always one of my highlights of the winter Olympics. Shame they messed about with it.
No, it's more pointless because silly little no-mark countries like Scandiwegia and Canadia win medals, while proper countries like the UK win fück all.
