Cappellini/Lanotte: Cute, fun. Too long a wait in the beginning before they start skating. The lift needs refining. My feed froze a couple times so I didn't get a full feel for the program.

I liked the Zaretskis (the first program i caught today). Charming, i found I didn't care about the tech weakness.
C/L - enjoyable, but there is something boyish about him, his style, and the way he presents her (or doesn't). This puts me off them a bit as a top contending team. Their skating skills seem good and smooth enough, but still something falls short. Lifts very sloppy and reeked of effort. But they are still enjoyable and engaging overall

I'm really annoyed with the fact that IN does not seem to be broadcasting the music as part of their audio, it just seems to be on in the background and the focus is on the commentators, either it should be the other way around or they should make the audio levels equal like they do on normal broadcasts :sheesh:

I think skating [read: ice dance] is the reason purple is not among my favorite colors

Khoklova/Novitski: Elongated "look at me" intro before the program begins, which set me a little on edge. The ending spin into the lift is cool. Them trying to find new positions for her legs is not. The tool has become a gimmick. And there's the disparity between the two - she's just more natural on the ice, I think. A couple of bobbles overall. Didn't like the way the music went into the guttural dirge.

Belbin/Agosto: Well, that was awesome. Gangbusters opening (after the too long pose). Easy lifts. Comfortable, relaxed, engaging, exciting (love the ending). Room for improvement but I loved where they're at.

If K/N get third overall by the end of this competition, I will be very happy.

D/W can dance some dance call it kathak and get away with it. But others cannot especially european dances they have to stick to proper music and costumes and moves have to be authentic.

What happened with K/N's TES?
I resp disagree. D/W can't get away with a mediocre performance, I don't see it happening.

It looks like one element was completely ruled out, but I don't know how. Lowest TES of the competition. Anyone?
