I think the Klimova vibe was at least partly because of the hair, because she reminded me of Klimova, too.

good God these costumes are ghastly!![]()
I missed the deduction on the couple from Great Britain. What was it please.
Ok, I love B&B, but that program was a letdown. The first one was so perfectly choreographed and this looked slapped together from bits and pieces of past FD's. They didn't even skate it technically as well as the FD at Nationals.
I didn't even like the weird version of "It's a Man's World" as much as the weird version of "Let the Sunshine In" they used a few season back.
Stupid French Fed. This actually really pissed me off.
Good luck to the CZE team! I really like them.
Czech team was hit and miss. Some really nice lifts and nice circular step, but weak on the twizzles, straight line step, and one lift was almost a disaster. They remind me a bit of Cappalleni&Lanotte
And when will skaters/coachers/choreographers going to stop using "Chess"? It never lends itself to skating.
It looks like he's wearing Johnny's King of Chess outfit.
Anyone know how to get past that Nike commerical on universal? It's so annoying!
At this rate I definitely won't be watching until it all finds its way onto youtube.
Z/V Ukraine
It wouldn't be an ice dance event without Carmen
They were a bit hit and miss too. Biiiig circular step and nice opening lift, but slow and awkward in other places. Some nice choreographic moments, but generic and forgettable in others.
Mallory and Rand were still the best so far for me, but Z/V get a whopping +5 on PCS over them.
Hermann's were ok, but once music from the Mask comes on I kind of blank out, so not much details. Sorry.

Reeds are doing pretty good!
Didn't the Reeds have a R&J FD earlier this season? If I'm remembering correctly, I like this a lot better, from what I can see.
Reeds
Another generic operatic vocal set to a dance beat. Didn't these go out of style in the early 2000's?
The program got better in terms of commitment to the performance as it went on, but those last two lifts were quite wobbly.
Very generic Morozov lower level team choreography.
Again I don't really get the spread on the PCS between the top two and M/R.
