Hey @elektra blue , make sure you open the windows - it might get hot at your place soon!

The panel is not in good mood today. The score box often looks like "yellow brick road".

H/B's RD makes me wish that they had stayed with Igor, or gone to Carol Lane, or anything else. But I'm so happy that they are loving this experience.

In other news, Weir does not think that ice dance is figure skating. Apparently, it is just cousin of real figure skating.

Johnny Weir has turned himself into a cartoon. I like his commentary for singles and pairs, but his commentary on dance is the equivalent of having a plumber doing brain surgery.

As long as the same "bad mood" is applied to all, it should be fine.

You do that, love. I'll toast to you when the moment comes

What an interesting ( read incorrect) perspective. Figure skating is at heart about "figures" right? So, isn't ice dance closer than any other discipline to the original concept?

I don't know, the French commentators always make sure to emphasize figure skating and ice dance are two separate sports as well. So they're all getting this somewhere...

Really happy Tina & Simon made the free dance.

So sad for TeamKoKo...I can't believe they're so low! I'm sure there's a reason, but the Kana and Daisuke fans on Insta are gonna be painful. It's like the only thing I disagree with them on so I don't want to unfollow just for that.

It's still gonna suck though.

I’m so excited for this next group!!! I am so glad my babies S/B made it to the Olympics!! I was so stressed about it This is a good looking group - S/B and FB/S have got to be two of the hottest ice dance teams ever (along with C/B) .

The funny thing is that he started by essentially saying that, before he made the dump cousin comment. He was saying that ice dance is focused on essential/base elements of figure skating (glide, performance) - or something sort of like that. I don't always pay full attention to the things Johnny says.

Whaaat???? You just made my day. Did not know about either of these coaching developments.

Tanith and Charlie are working with Greg Zuerlein. Bratti/Somerville are their first team for the school.

The thing that gets me is that Tanith could be a pretty decent singles/pairs commentator. But no, it's Johnny we need everywhere, and Tara in 3/4 disciplines even though I just don't think she's that good at commentary itself.

Whoops dunno how that happened.

But it's true so I'm happy to repeat it.

StepBuk!

Lila and Lewis!

Gabby and Guillaume.

Tanith and Charlie are working with Greg Zuerlin. Bratti/Somerville are their first team for the school.

I really look forward to their future work.

Popping in to have a look at the last two groups! I'm very happy to see Shiyue and Xinyu, the winners of my most attractive couple contest, in second

 

[elektra blue]

Totally forgot the French team was in the 2nd last group because of the standing.
