Do you remember approximately where this happened during the broadcast?

It was in the second half hour, I think -- maybe about thirty-five or forty minutes in.
Pretty sure that it aired after Max's exhibition ... but not immediately after.

IIRC, it was bumper video going into a commercial break??

Pls know that I don't expect you to go to any trouble to find it. It was only a few seconds long, but it was cute. And it was nice to see Max feeling playful even after the emotional rollercoaster of the FS that barely had ended.

Thx again.

LOL, Carly and Gracie were watching the gala on NBC. Cute tweet + ten-second video from the Golds (be sure to read the hashtag and to watch to the end of the video

):

I put together all the interviews & fluff I could find from the broadcast:

(Max interview at 3:18. Bumper clip at 5:40.)

Many thanks, sabinfire for not only meeting my request, but also far exceeding it. Very glad to have all the interviews as well.

So I think Mirai :luv17: was the only skater who is not going to Worlds but whose exhibition NBC showed.

Fits with my theory that NBC was getting an early start on its promotional push for Worlds coverage. And replayed the free programs to show the caliber of the top US competitors in Boston.

But too bad that we did not see more of the exhibitions.

Any chance I could persuade you to upload those few seconds of bumper video of Max goofing around and pretending to box with the camera?

Would love for karne to see it.

Thankyou golden!!! :love:

You know I'm always up for cute Max. I totally forgot this would be shown today, but finding a stream could have been tricky anyway. I just wait for IN to put the whole thing up :yes:

I love the egglayer move.

I think promoting coverage of home Worlds in Boston could be the reason for replaying entire free programs of the winners??

Recycling the Tara/Johnny fluff pieces from the NBC website is the only thing that is really bugging me as an indefensible waste of air time.

(Wayfair is a sponsor, so the promotion of Wayfair is understandable to me. At least it was promotion of philanthropic efforts by Wayfair.)

I think every year they replay the free programs of the winners either during the gala or the airing of the next discipline. I think Gracie Gold's free was aired 2 extra times: once during the mens' free and during the gala. That is really annoying. I wish that in the future they would stop re-airing winning free programs during the gala so that we get to see more skaters during the galas.
