Looking forward to the pairs competition (hope I can stay awake) and the return of S/Z. Thank goodness they skate first so if I do fall asleep I will be happy.

Confessions from an addicted fan: I crammed all of my classes and work from Monda to Thursday so I could watch the GP live.

Good luck to all the pairs!

I cannot agree more. My face literally cringed when they put on the montage (and I love that pair!)

Good luck to all the pairs!

I dunno... Music is so so.. They are so much better than this music. Strange ending. Maybe I am spoiled, but I expected something more...Lets hope I appreciate LP more!

AAaaaaahhhhhh ..... !!!!! Did they leave for 2 seasons? It didn't look like :clap:
It just flew by... They are as gorgeous as always.

The Zhangs could beat it tech wise, but I can't care less

Welcome back Shen/Zhao, you were really missed!

Shen and Zhao were most excellent. Fantastic chemistry. As cliched as it sounds, they skate as one at this point. Exquisite expression, sl step sequence wonderful, as were the big tricks. just the sbs spins not perfect, and pair spin a bit slowish, but this is nitpicking. They,ve been missed.

Music was a bright string arrangement of "Who wants to live Forever" by Queen. I liked the costumes. light-hearted and passionate interpretation.
