Well the judges are not having any problem with her programs, I mean look at the PCS she is getting even with mistakes, sure the long program isnt something great as we were all expecting but she can changed the coreography, she is not going to the final after all.
I like her Humoresque SP fine, even though it's kind of cutesy for my taste, but is there a reason she's reverted back to her 3T-3T for her combo and not the 3F-3T? I agree with the content seeming low level this year, compared to what she's been doing.
She definitely should go back to Bolero.

Good news I guess!
I was really disappointed in her SP especially. The choreography seemed way too juvenile and Disney like. It would suit someone like Jijun much much better.
Her LP isn't that bad... kind of meh but still it's not bad.
Mozart might be a good choice to revisit, but with different costume, pretty please....
I think I'm gonna cry if she changes LP and keeps SP.
Is Lori going to give her a refund? lol I think Lori took on too many skaters for this Olympics. Carolina is not skating her programs well yet and going back to an old one does not guarantee that she will skate them well either.
I don't think muscle memory last that long.
I think we are the only people here who prefer the LP over the SP. I kinda see some potential in Sheherazade. But, the SP, I tried, but I do not love it. I also would prefer a change of the SP over the LP.
Everyone, trust me, the Sheherazade program would look much better with the jumps landed and a new costume.
don't worry folks. She is carolina kostner. She will skate well win it counts. She has like some lucky charm that somehow she will get a medal.
I wonder if going back to an old program will really help her scorewise.
She does not have to worry about scores. After all, a place on the Sochi podium is granted, so why not getting it with something she likes?
She does not have to worry about scores. After all, a place on the Sochi podium is granted, so why not getting it with something she likes and "feels appropriate"? The judges will... follow on, so to speak.
Miki n Jam: yes, Caro will medal. And she DID medal in both CoC and CoR.
I think you make good points. I agree that Scheherazade has better/more transitions and choreography than Bolero, but people seemed to really like Bolero (more than I think it deserved).
I think Carolina's SP last season was most definitely better than her SP this season, BUT the difference doesn't merit a change. I think Scheherazade doesn't have enough potential to be received better than Bolero, and would prefer for her to go back to her Mozart or Faun FS.
May I borrow your crystal ball? I'd like to know for sure who else will medal...
Bolero was nowhere near as good as Mozart and Faun, I'd much rather she went back to one of those. Or the 2012 SP.
