In the order that I watch them.
Kerrs: One of their best performances, EVER! There was absolutely nothing that could have pulled me away from watching them, they were spellbinding. Great, great routine. And I was so happy at their reactions in the K&C, seeing John cry almost made me start!
Pechalat/Bourzat: great performance! This FD has come a long way from the beginning of the season, and it looked wonderful here. They've improved in their skating over the course of the season.
Zadorozhniuk Verbilo: Carmen, but I actually enjoyed it! This is a team with lots of potential, I've been very impressed with them. Much improved over their showing at CoR. On a shallow note, it may just be me but their costumes didn't seem to go with each other.
Capellini/Lanotte: beautiful! At the beginning of the season I was worried that this might not show their personalities to their advantage, but they were quite lively in this performance! Increased speed and flow, everything looked great. I loved her beaming smile at the end and when she hugged Luca
laugh: at his fuzzy white sweater!)! And after watching F/S, to me C/L were much better in the FD and I think are well on their way to being a better team. I can understand their frustration as to how they are judged in relation to F/S (I don't get it either).
Khokhlova/Novitski: I think they deserved their win. They've improved a lot since last season, but I still don't consider them a favorite team of mine. Their footwork looks a lot better, but they are still losing speed noticeably. I also still think there is still too much emphasis on her super bendiness, and she is much stronger technically than he is. I do really like this dance though, it's come a long way this season. I think when healthy, DomShabs are better dancers, but Khokhlova/Novitski are better at creating a mood and keeping the audience captivated. (on a shallow note...Novitski, get a different haircut!!)
Faiella/Scali: Another team that I think has improved, but I still don't get them. I loved their FD in an early summer performance I watched on youtube, but I haven't had that same enjoyment since. I thought the Kerrs should have been silver.
