Obviously the arena wasn’t cleansed after pairs

She really does look like Viktoria/Anastasia... this program suited them. Could have used some more time.

Beelzebub had the devil put aside for the Parsons’ twizzles.

Shades of when Kaitllin Hawayek fell

I forgot to say, Rachel's dress is fantastic for this program

Lol, Charlie talking about what a twizzle fall means. I can hear the flashback to Rostelecom Cup in his voice

That penguin plushy is adorable.

He is going for the Cizeron look.

Sigh. The Parsons are still struggling to transition to the senior ranks. Yes, the program looks like it was put together about 17 minutes ago. What's really killing them I think is the choice of music. They keep copying other dance teams with their FD choices. They really need to FIND THEIR OWN STYLE AND VOICE. Their World winning Junior program was so fresh--because it was unique to them and highlighted their particular strengths. I would NOT suggest they use BR next year. They really need to find something that hasn't been associated with other skaters and teams.

Annnd bringing the crown royal costumes to the ice dance event....

WeakAnkles - this may be my limited knowledge showing, but who else in ice dance is BR associated with?

I don't include the Bohemian Rhapsody/Nocturne programs, which can be lovely but are a different beast.

I have plenty of songs that I have thought of that I don't think have been used too much that could work.

How dare you. How dare you speak of that

That look really works for me [emoji6]
(I’m 20 so that’s not creepy!!!)

This program is very nice but feels never ending. I hate programs that have nowhere to go.

 

[GGFan]

First time watching them. They kept me captivated until the end. There's potential there. Very nice connection. She emotes very well

Confession: I was going to go multitask during Erdman and Vlasenko.

But then I couldn't, because something about their skating totally mesmerized me. I loved it all. Can't we get these two to represent some other country?? I suddenly really want to see them on the international scene but the US field is just SO stacked already.

I'm sorry Ive loved Kaitlin & Jean-Luc ever since the chose The theory of everything for music.

I can think of Crone/Poirier, but that was a while ago and they weren't that well known yet. Plus maybe that had Nocturne in it, can't remember. Oh and I think H/D did a Bohemian/Nocturne?

 

[ruffledgrouse]

I am so ready for some Annie Lennox

 

[GGFan]

Agreed. Yellow card labgoat! :ddevil:

I love this program so much. So fierce. So intense!!!
