Thanks for the lineup, NMURA.
(Seeing that six men already are included, I wish that time permitted a seventh.

Sigh.)

Re the absence of Sui/Han, in case anyone is wondering:

Turns out that Han had been afflicted with fever and headache even before their FS.

He was sent to the hospital after the FS, according to shuchong's post in the Pairs FS thread.

They really honored Mirai with her inclusion in the NHK Gala in spite of her placement in the competition. I don't think that it's just because of the delay during the Ladie's LP. She's always been popular in Japan.

Wow they were fast with this! I'm so happy that Mirai got invited to the show. She's always great in the show atmosphere so it will be really nice to see her skate again.

Not surprisingly simce this field was so deep to begin with, but this gala is going to be like a COI or an ATS with this roster! I'm jealous of the very lucky Japanese fans who will be there live. I don't usually watch the galas live but I just might have watch this one!

Did they already assign Davis and White as ice dance #1? Because that seems like a major fate tempt.

Sasha'sSpins · Nov 9, 2013

If that is the order of the skaters then they have REALLY honored Mirai for sure! If the list is the skating order then Mirai will be going after Akiko, Gracie, and Elena and just before the gold medallists! :biggrin:

I think the poster inserted D/W.

Here is the list, as you can see all of the icedancers are blank.

Is this being shown live anywhere? on ice network I hope?

dorispulaski · Nov 10, 2013

Previous seasons, the GP galas showed up on icenetwork long after the GP season--but they did eventually show up.

Mao88, you continue to be wonderful!

TontoK · Nov 10, 2013

C'mon, Meryl and Charlie,

I know it's just an exhibition program, but that's just blah and unmemorable.

Is this what you really want for your exhibition at the Olympics?

Big fan. Huge fan. But really

They usually have a new number at nationals.

TontoK · Nov 10, 2013

They could do a variation of DF or even rehash the old Bollywood SD.

I know they're probably not investing much in time and energy into their exhibition number, particularly this season...

But either of the suggestions above would be crowd-pleasers, and shouldn't take up too much time, I would think.

I'm getting WAY ahead of myself, but I picture the Olympic gala, and they roll out that snoozy number...

Sasha'sSpins · Nov 10, 2013

Mao88 You continue to be all kinds of AMAZING!!! Thank you so much for the Gala videos! :clap:

dorispulaski · Nov 10, 2013

D&W always have debutted their exhibitions at Nationals - however, this year, I wonder whether they will wait till Olympics for max impact.

After all, they have not gotten a lot of mileage out of Fade Into You yet- Nationals, 4CC's Worlds, and now Skam & NHK. They didn't do any summer shows.
