So, did anyone besides me watch the second installment of "Skating's Next Star?" After that fiasco of a first program, the second one was pretty good. I still don't know why they can't skate on a real ice rink -- budgetary considerations, I suppose. This one was on a small stage in an old theater.
The best part of the show -- more Kristi! Plus, someone must have got to the judges and told them no one really likes Simon Cowell. Rudy and Oksana G. were quite appropriate this time around, and all the judges went out of their way to acknowledge that the competitors were trying their best under difficult circumstances.
The girl who last week was "too fat," now suddenly was receiving compliments for choosing a custom that "flattered her body type." (But they still sent her home.)
Some of the spins were actually pretty good. One girl did a nice Bielmann and a Beaver Cleaver in her routine.
