I love watching Shoma skate. Wish they had used the aerial camera a bit less so we could se more of darling Shoma up close.

As I am watching the exhibition from TV at home (NHK oversea channel), the broadcasting actually include interviews from Japanese Team skaters during the intermission. The interviewer (Narumi Takahashi) asked each skater this question: 'The person you look up to the most?' And the answers from the skaters are as follow:

Shoma --> Stéphane
Yuma --> Shoma
Mai --> her coach
Wakaba --> Jihyo of TWICE
Misato --> Shuzo Matsuoka (Japanese tennis player, also as a sports broadcaster)
Tim --> Kurt Browning
Yuna (pair)--> Riku Miura
Sumitada --> Daisuke Takahashi
Yuna --> Shizuka Arakawa
Tatsuya --> Yuzuru Hanyu

Thank you! My wife and I wished during the intermission that they would have shown the big screen with sub titles......

Did anyone watch the Gala on Peacock? Originally there was a blue tile that showed it would be on at 10:40 pm my time yesterday. When I tuned in at 10:40, the blue tile was gone and -- POOF! No Gala!
