Yes, sky_fly20. It's not the same tango but that's why I wrote "same sort of theme". They are doing it for two seasons in a row. I was hoping for them to avoid this kind of situation. Eventhough it is very difficult to find originial music that is "skatable" in competitive programs. But, hey... as the season progresses and they feel more comfortable the FD might become very good.

this isn't the same tango D/W used though, but I feel , this is exactly what Kustarova/Aleexa wants to do with Sinitina/Zhiganshin to be like a mini Davis/White , they are talented but they have their own style.

It's worse. The year before that they used Samson & Delilah. That makes three seasons in a row.

Well, imitation is the sincerest forum of flattery, I suppose.

Korobeynikova's short program looks better than the long. We have seen so many black swans and swan lakes recently, and the choreography was worse than much of them. Her movements match well with Romeo and Juliet. Her jumps look weak but it's just the beginning of the season, she will make them better in time.

I still can't believe Kustarova had the audacity to give her top team who is moving up to seniors "Ting Tang Walla Walla Bing Bang"

Is it just me but I sometimes see Menshov pulling out his inner Pluishy - the body, the hand movements, the stalking of the jumps, the air on the ice and even the blonde locks. Sometimes he screams Plushy.

i have a question,
I notice on Rus forum Ilinykh/Katsalapov and Sinitsina/Zhiganshin are favorites

in Russia, who does the public fans prefer and want to be No. 1 ?
is it I/K or S/Z ?
I personally don't have any favourites among Russian dancers or any dancers. I/K were heavily promoted in their after junior period but then they had disappointing results. Bobrova/Solovjov were more stable but couldn't "fix" their status #1 of Team Russia last season. S/Z are still junior and I don't think they will podium at RN this season. I think Razyanova/Tkachenko will get the 3rd spot, so basically the Team will be the same as last year.
