Starts at 4:30 Eastern time - unless your local market delays it. Mine usually does, but not today.
I think it's fun to talk about the skating while watching it on TV. I wonder if there will be any coverage of dance or pairs this week.
Tara didn't like Jason Brown nearly a much as I do
I will say that Johnny and Tara have it easier than Scott and Sandra - they know the outcome before the broadcast and they are able to edit what they say to make it fit. They don't have to guess in the moment.
Are you sure that NBC's GP commentary is not recorded "live to tape?" (As many Olympic events -- in lots of sports -- are, for example.)

It's possible, but even if it is - they can (and do) go back and edit the audio.
So, this is for NBC - thanks for showing skating and thanks for giving us Terry, Johnny and Tara. But, Two at at time please - Terry and Johnny, Terry and Tara because with three, we learn nothing. Terry gives a few of those gems of stats about a skater, but we don't really get any analysis of the skating. I was so looking forward to Weir's take on Jason and Chan etc and to Tara on the Russian girls and Ashley and the distinctions among them...alas, we didn't get any of that. They were nice together but not informative together. Just my two cents.
Chan's even better on tv...and although I agree that Ashley needs to do so more or different emoting in this LP, I think her edges and precision (and yes the mistakes too) appear so clear and crisp on tv. Great to see Adelina do a clean LP...my heart aches for Gao, does anyone know what happened? Cesario looking good!
What did she say about our boy?! I'm gonna get her!
