The final perky part of Zucker/Sitiks's latin free would be a lot more fun if they didn't look so tired.

She hits her final pose several beats before the music ends and just holds it while he continues. She seriously looked like she's in pain at the end, is she injured?

@Ekm, I always try to call it as I see it. I have to call out unfairness when it is a politically-biased result. You can refrain because you don't like negativity. I understand that sometimes fans are overly complaining when their favorites are underscored and even when they aren't. This situation is very different. C/B and the Shibs are very close in ability, but the Shibs have stepped it up tremendously and are actually surpassing C/B right now, but due to politics the Shibs are failing to be fairly rewarded. I find that UNACCEPTABLE! And I will speak out about it.

Evan and Madison are NOT better on the components than Maia and Alex. That's just a put-up job and a lame excuse to keep the Shibs in second place. Unfairness and politics is written all over this result!!

Charlie White showed too much obvious favoritism in his remarks as well. Maia and Alex were way better technically and artistically in their performance. The judges rewarded Can/McM by percentage points over Hawayek/Baker, but could not be fair to the Shibs. The way this has been scored, shows quite clearly that Evan and Madison can trip all over themselves with their faux, awkward so-called presentation and with tech mistakes, and still win over a better Maia and Alex. I hope C/B are OFF the podium at Worlds.
