Actually, i think when i recompile next version, i´ll add some artists/teams that, based on their achievements, should show up more in the list so people bring more of them.
For example, i feel that it could have more Sui/Han and V/T.
Could have also more old stuff, such as Rodnina, after all, she won like 10 worlds in a row. Something by Sonja Henie, she is such a landmark, and even if its just some show program.

Heya folks, just letting you know, i´m updating the list ^^
Adding suggested stuff, fixing broken links and so on. Also, organizing it a bit more.

Here is the unfinished version: https://sta.sh/0nlgmmcvij0

Last but not least, when suggesting new stuff, don´t worry about it being or not on the list. If it already is, i´ll add a second link, for example.

1. Alexei Yagudin's FS at 2002 Olympics (Winter) --> the best men FS in Olys and that footwork for ages!
2. Shizuka Arakawa's FS at 2004 Worlds (Turandot) --> perfect combination of grace and power and her signature Ina Bauer
3. Daisuke Takahashi's SP at 2008 4CC (Swan Lake) --> it was more like a rock concert with all them screaming fans
4. Mao Asada's FS at 2010 Olympics (Bells of Moscow) --> gives me goosebumps each and every time
5. Jason Brown's FS at 2014 US Nationals (Riverdance) --> the best Riverdance ever; he was a joy to watch
6. Akiko Suzuki's FS at 2013 Japanese Nationals (Phantom of the Opera) --> I could watch this a million times and still feel goosies
7. Yuna Kim's FS at 2013 Worlds (Les Miserables) --> she wouldn't be called a queen for nothing
8. Yulia Lipnitskaya's FS at 2014 Olympics Team Event (Schindler's List) --> the perfect program for this talented girl
9. Davis and White's Bollywood OD --> I learned to appreciate Indian music because of them. I love everything about this program.

I disagree, I think great variety is great for the list. Of course it should contain the best programs of V/M or Sui/Han, but I don't think people want to see like 10 good solid programs by V/M or Sui/Han and one outstanding one of them, instead of 1 outstanding one of them and 9 other outstanding performances of lesser known skaters, who also bring a different style and idea with them.

While I agree with you, that was not the principle used to make the list. For example, I really dont believe that all the programs by Michelle Kwan listed there are outstanding. Same goes to a few other fan's favs, which ended up with their whole repertoir in the list basically because the fans (sometimes, a person would make most of their 10 with programs of their fav skater, and so on).
I see many programs there that were added not based on any artistic qualities, or other factors that could classify it as outsidanding, but only on the strength of a specific fanfest here on this forum.

maybe I misunderstood you then .. My point was exactly that I don't think it makes sense to include 20 Michelle Kwan programs or 20 V/M programs, just because they are great skaters with longs careers, but rather only include as many outstandly well skated programs as possible.

I suppose we should just keep the discussion so this thread gets more attention and more people post their lists ;)

This is so hard but I give it a try. My favorite discipline is ice dance so it will be reflected on the list.

1. Virtue/Moir: Moulin Rouge (for the mature skaters that they are now)
2. Virtue/Moir: Mahler (this program is so organic to this day brings tears, timeless) (could have written Carmen here, but the execution of that program was not perfect, had great potential)
3. Papadakis/Cizeron: Build a Home (this was a moment in time)
4. Shibutani/Shibutani: Fix You (their best work and genuine)
5. Hubbel/Donohue: Halleluja (first time this couple really got me)
6. Sui/Han: Blues for Klook
7. Lambiel: Poeta
8. Lambiel: Me Ne Quitte Pas (EX)
9. Hanyu: Seimei
10. Hanyu: Chopin
11. Asada: Rach 2
12. Yuna Kim: Adios Nonino
13. Wagner: Moulin Rouge

There are so many, I could go on. :)
