2022 Winter Olympics: Rhythm Dance

Like how closely the Taschlers skate together and their energy.

They look so happy when they skate this RD which is so nice to see.

I really hope T/V make it to the FD I really like them.

They made it!

Me too. Enjoying CBC stream because Belinda's commentary is like an audio version of detailed score box.

should i switch to Canada? india is slowing my internet down

They made it!

Have they?? I thought 5 won’t make it but we’ve only seen 4 teams?

What stream are watching through India?

I wonder if this is the last time we will see them. It must have been hard to skate with so much trouble at home. I feel for them.

It's not much trouble at home. It's about judging.

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Who else is still bitter that Allison and M. Saulius aren't here?

Oh completely. My only consolation is the team they sent instead is almost guaranteed to finish behind everyone so that probably gives one team the opportunity to advance to the FD who wouldn’t have otherwise. Will be interesting to see who it is.

I'm seeing a Q on the results page so I think they're safe

Only 3 won’t make it here.

I love the power of T/T. Hope they make it through. It seems cruel to me to have only 23-25 (can't remember the exact number) and have 20 make the FD. Either have all teams do both or make the cut larger.

Excellent! Thank you!

Thanks - Eurosport uncle said 5 so that’s why I was confused!

If the commentary isn’t too annoying I might look for the USA network feed on Peacock during ice resurfacing!

Thankfully, Tanith Belbin White commentates ice dance instead of Tara, so at least half of the annoyance factor is removed.

I have slow broadband and CBC is working well for me.

It kinda sucks how every ice dance is using English language pop songs. Because figure skating breeds such a air of xenophobia, skaters are too afraid to use songs that are out of what FS deem "normal." Karen Chen got criticized for using Butterfly concerto because her music sounded too "oriental" by some former ISU judge on TSL. I'm sure there are great and extremely popular Russian, Spanish etc pop songs. I would see to see skaters showcase music from their country. It would make it so much more interesting and diverse than the usual American/English pop song.

Aren’t Tessa and Scott doing the commentary for CBC?

There was an announcement that they were but so far I've only really heard Belinda doing any technical commentary
