You're a real piece of work. I think it'll be wonderful if they win

 

[chuckm]

Guess who is on the panel for the FD? YURI BALKOV!!

Could be underhanded dealings afoot

 

[Mattieu]

Enjoyd the Chinese, she has a lot of character for a Chinese girl.
The music is an unbelievable hotchpotch....

I think you mean "hodgepodge"

Thx for teaching me something new, Mattieu.
In the U.S., we do say "hodgepodge" -- as your link indicates (as does the one below). I had no idea that it was a geographic variant of "hotchpotch."

[MeaganSkater]

Does anyone know of a live stream that is not geoblocked in Canada? Thanks.

 

[caitie]

What time does this start? I thought it was 1pm.

What time does this start? I thought it was 1pm.

For now, FD started 1 hour ago.

 

[caitie]

Thanks, I just managed to find the stream. The ISU's site is a bit hard to navigate, and all the links kept taking me to speed skating...

 

[tjskate]

I've got Icenetwork going in a corner of my screen at work

Go Jean-Luc and Kaitlin!

 

[caitie]

Ever so slightly OT, but Lynn Rutherford just reported the ISU dance committee is discussing dropping the number of required lifts in the free dance.

 

[caitie]

omggg I was just about to say how cute this little 50s dance is from the Canadian team, then they wiped out on their lift! D:

 

[Sackie]

That's 2 years in a row that a Can Dance team has dropped badly after the short. Now let's hope the other Can team can stay on their feet and stay in the top 5 this year. But I am not being hopeful. One little slip and they can drop down to 7th or 8th place!

 

[caitie]

They started playing the wrong music for the Parsons, which may have screwed up their focus. Disappointing for them!

 

[Chemistry66]

Oof. the Parsons siblings just slipped a few places.

Oh wow that sucks.

McNamara / Carpenter for Gold

 

[gmyers]

Balkovs on the panel! Any result is corrupt and illegimate!!

 

[caitie]

McNamara/Carpenter looked like they had a decent performance to me. They remind me SO MUCH of a young Davis/White! It's ironic they idolize Virtue/Moir, although the very very end of their program did look clearly influenced by Virtue/Moir's Carmen to me.

Some of their lift exits looked a bit heavy, and like a lot of the couples their twizzles in the middle of their footwork got a bit wonky here and there, but otherwise I thought they looked good to my eye. I hope they medal.

ETA: Gah, enough with the Les Mis!
