Maybe that’s why this is a better program.
What do you mean?

I only caught the last few exhibition numbers and am watching the program on CBC site now. Really like Joubert's skate, very different from his usual style but beautiful.

I watched some of it but I always find the galas rather anti-climactic compared to the competition.. I liked Ashley Wagner though.

Wow. I think that EX might have been the best thing Patrick Chan has ever done. I've always considered him artistic, but I think this was at a new level. Scary as it is, this seems to suggest that he might just be scratching the surface of his abilities. I'd love to see him bring something like this to competition next season. Bravo. (And Bravo to Jeff Buttle, who seems to have tapped into an emotional level that I didn't realize Chan had.)

Jeffrey Buttle is a very good choreographer and I'm surprised he isn't in greater demand. If I'm not mistaken, he choreographed Jeremy Ten's lovely Single Man program, and I think he worked with Fedor Andreev (when Fedor was still trying to skate in singles) and had a hand in at least one of Javier Fernandez's programs this year. There are some really good choreographers out there and I wish skaters would look beyond the few super-popular ones for their competition programs (though Carolina can stay with Lori Nichol if she continues doing programs like this year's).
Galas used to be a lot more fun. Why are so many skaters skating to GFBs and otherwise boring music? And why does everyone skate to the same Adele song? She has more than one! Thank god for TakaTran and P/B.
Amodio and Joubert's lift was also a highlight - is it on Youtube? - and they both gave good performances.
ETA: it is! Also - the French team comes out for a photo up at the end

Oh that highlights Chan better than his competitive programs, I hope he conciders Buttle for next season.

Thanks for all the vids uploads.
I like Brian's EX. Emotional piece. Good looking dude too.
Carolina looks like a model on ice. Gorgeous simple yet elegant dress. Beautiful piece and one of my favourite songs.

Generic female ballad.
Yes, I finally saw Patrick's exhibition program, and it's phenomenal. Gorgeous choreography by Buttle, and Patrick does it justice. Awesome!

Hahha, I uncrypted it as GirlFriendBoyfriend situation songs, bottom line... it is pretty much the same 
Thanks for the vid! You have to admit that A/J edge P/B at lifts.
Carolina 's exhibition is amazing and this version of the song too, I liked also her early season exhibition of Carmen by Lambiel

Because Jeffrey Buttle's choreography won't stand out unless skated with great skills, unlike Mozorov's, which makes not-so-great skaters look greater than they are.

I think if he keeps his Aranjuez LP, he might give us a program like this next season.

Oh, please! Can't the guy change programs like (almost) everyone else? If he's the best ever, why can't he deal with new material?I think if he keeps his Aranjuez LP, he might give us a program like this next season.
*Note to self: Hold further emotion until he announces his 2012-13 programs.*
I agree (but not with the same emotion lol). Would love to see 2 brand new programs from him for next season. I think it's time.
