Opening number with introduction of the skaters (top 5). The ladies top 5 are not there, perhaps taking a rest/preparing?

Kirsten Moore-Towers/Dylan Moscovitch did their "Bring It On" routine. It was fun, though Kirsten fell on sbs triple toe and throw triple salchow. They also had problems with their last lift. They must be tired?

Takahiko Kozuka did his "Glee" number, but I'm not sure it fits his introvert style. He did a beautiful triple axel, triple toe and double axel. His death drop into back sit is huge. His back scratch is very nice too.

Madison Chock/Greg Zuerlein did their soft and lyrical "Romeo & Juliet" routine. Now, if they could just make Greg seem a bit older...

Why is the commericials cutting into the beginning of the numbers?

Rachael Flatt did her "I Want to Hold Your Hand" routine. A triple flip and single axel. Did she copy and paste the step sequence from her "East of Eden" SP? They looked similiar.

* Caitlin Yankowskas/John Coughlin did the same routine as Nationals. I found it a bit boring.

* Adam Rippon did the "I'm Yours" routine, wearing a T-shirt with the print "Get your scrant on". What does that mean? 2A, 3F, 'rippon' 3Lz, 3S.

* Vanessa Crone/Paul Poirier did a dancy number, don't know the music. I haven't seen it before.

* Alissa Czisny did "I Like The Way (You Move)". Held on to 2A and 3T, lovely spins. She's too cute to pull of sexy...But wow, she looks very skinny and tall in that costume.

Thanks for the info.! :thumbsup:

I love Rachael's "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" exhibition, which is unusual for me, as I usually don't like exhibition performances unless they grab me, and this exhibition's of Rachael's did grab me, in fact it is my all-time favorite from her. :)

Here's hoping it shows up on youtube, as I unistalled the pptv link once the competition was over for security reasons.
