I definitely saw some little issues on Nic‘s part during the skate that didn’t seem to be reflected in the GOE as it came up live, so, yeah, I am not surprised by that.
Also, I discovered an immediate rewind capability on Peacock

and saw some of what I missed just now. Wolfkostin & Chen continuing to struggle, poor Charlie looks to be struggling just as hard to bite his tongue and stay positive in the KnC as Scott Moir did last year with Carreira/Ponomarenko. That program, which I’m guessing is Charlie’s work, feels too juniorish, though I love Florence and find the timbre of her voice so well suited for the acoustics of an ice rink. They nearly botched a lift in this one too and Jeffrey even missed on his little waltz jump (Charlie’s trademark, and I’m sure he was not amused by that.)
Not that I know what the solution is.
Pate & Bye’s FD looks slow, even on video (it’s more apparent live.) Kazakova & Reviya continuing to underperform, though they were spectacular in juniors and while there were my pick for the next big thing.
Continue to love Loicia & Theo’s FD. I’d like to see him project a bit more, to better match his little spitfire of a partner, but this team is really showing me something this season. I realize that I had underestimated their potential—and I am delighted to be wrong!
