I have a feeling the Chinese will land on the podium (lol). They are very cute and talented.

Let's hope this group BRINGS IT.

On a very shallow note I'm a little bummed Ksenia's not in a ponytail tonight. I loved that look on her and I thought it worked for this program, but I'll just be happy if they skate it clean tonight. I can't deny they kind of stole my heart in Sochi.

they are saying it's been nightmare for Russian team because of the weird schedule for Pairs and acclimatisation. Also they have been forced to sleep in the arena as the hotels are very far and hard to commute to. So, anything can happen.

She did an interview about Marlie and Voir where she compared Voir to a "fine wine" and Marlie to "macaroni and cheese." When she was called on it--as she bloody well should be--she tried to pass it off with "oh but mac & cheese is basic and comfort food." No, no, no insult here. And I thought, let's compare your kids to "mac & chesse" and other kids to "fine wine" and see how YOU feel. So she will always be PJ 'Mac & Cheese' Kwong to me.

Thank you for the compliment. You can't take all this TOO seriously. Just look at some of the tacky costumes--this is High Art AND Higher Kitsch (which is probably why I love it!).
Aaaha and I agree with you. Thanks for filling me in.

Shame about the 2Axel. Guess I'll have to go back to the GPF for their best skate of this program.

But well done! Hope they win, but there are still 3 teams left.

Thanks for the memories S/S.

I LOVED that from S & S. Magical, balletic, and filled with emotion. Robin singled his axel but otherwise a wonderful end to their amazing career. I will miss them so much!!!
