It seems very hard to find the whole video for the breakdancing
NBC blocked anyone I the states from watching it without Peacock, and now they're taking the replays off Peacock because Fuck you that's why.
Yeah it's pretty absurd. What, are you going to sell a boxed set later? Fucking clowns.

VPN anywhere where it's legally required to be public, like the UK.

Ooh nice that's still working, TY!
Idk what to tell you then, cause it’s still up for me. Don’t know if it’s geo blocked, but I’m in the US where it would be most likely to be blocked by NBC
Post shows as removed here in Germany
Probably cached for you. I seem to remember things like that from when I was on reddit-- if you'd visited a page before it got removed your browser still displayed it. If you open it from a new browser or incognito wi now it'll prob display as removed.
edit: nm, vid still appears to be up on old reddit
