Z/G's FD was a massive cannibalization of this dance choreographed by Wade Robson for SYTYCD- even down to the costumes and makeup.

It's a dance about a group of zombies.

Unfortunately, I think Z/G don't have the nuance of movement to really elevate the concept but I think for those who haven't seen the original dance they would think this was original and unique. But it's not- to me, it's a poorly executed copy of the original with some other musical pieces tacked on the beginning.

I thought I liked Monko/Khaliavin, but this "flamenco" just got wailing and tedious. A bit sloppy. Where was this team last year?

They were out much of last season due to injuries/sickness. They competed at Nationals, where they finished 5th.

Fingers and toes crossed for a great performance from Sinitsina and Zhiganshin. Hope they can make the podium.

This is a haunting and beautiful program, but my stream kept freezing so couldn't get a good feel for the technical difficulty.
