Huge triple twist from the French to open
Popova messes up the 3T / 3T sequence
They both double the sbs 3S
Nice forward inside death spiral
Random fall on nothing from Bruno
Change foot combo spin slightly out of unison
touch down on the throw triple flip
fabulous group 5 reverse lasso lift
choreo sequence gets the crowd clapping along
unusual group 5 backward lasso lift
3 sal throw landed but very tentative heading into it
slow pair combination spin to the music
Group 3 lift to finish ends with the final pose.
Bruno looks like he is either winded or in some pain from that earlier fall

Yeah, they're just too weak on jumps/throws. Lifts, spins, and the performance of the program are fine, but they're always falling! Well, actually the spins are a bit far apart but they aren't BAD.

All four pairs were painful to watch. It more like an ongoing train wreck than a splat fest. All I kept thinking was, this is like ice skating equivalent of flop sweat. Hope that things pick up.

Ice Network must not be live. L/S just now taking the ice. Now I can't read along online or I'll be spoiled. Wonder why the delay?

Scratch that. I saw that post above lead with a comment about them and I thought it was a pbp so I stopped reading, I see now it was about the warm up.
