What *should* the US female skaters skate to next year in their SPs and LPs?
Since you asked, I would like to recommend the theme from Downton Abbey for Alissa Czisny. Am I crazy that it would not be perfect that Czinsy, in a costume inspired by the character Lady Mary Crawley, skate to this trendy yet classy—crazy-classy—theme, as far as figure skating judges go? Don’t you think it would be awesome—AND—that the judges would eat it up for her short program?
Here’s the music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7ULKKJ5UpI
(Bibliography: The idea of a ladies’ program to the Downtown Abbey theme was not mine. I know someone else said this first on GS, I think maybe skateluvr, but god who knows. It was first suggested as a LP for Ashley Wagner months ago, for whom, I think, the music is too interesting.)
Here are my recommendations, matched to the artistic abilities, of other US female skaters:
For Agnes Zawadzksi, something sultry: my recommendation is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pu2NzXb4x1s
For Ashley Wagner, something demographically tested and safe: my recommendation is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiGQ6zhEwWo
For Gracie Gold, something teenage emotions can understand : [link to “Call Me Maybe,” a bit hard to find on YouTube for free. Ha ha.]
Do I mean to start some debates on Golden Skate with this post? You betcha!

Why don't we wait to actually SEE the program before commenting about how it'll be the first horse of the apocalypse?
Glad it made you laugh too, snsd.
