I'd like all new programs

 

[Bluediamonds09]

I would love for amber glenn to return to her My Baby Shot Me Down program. I'm not into the last 3 programs she's done: they all seem so similar.

 

[Anni234]

Ilia Malinin's SP is great, would happily see him keep it.

I would like to see all new programs. I would definitely like to see and hear skateable music with a little creativity. If you must skate to a warhorse please interpret the music accordingly. And I think I'll stick a pencil in my ear if I have to listen to Carmen one more time.

Smart/Dieck Dune FD

Wakabond

 

[ladyjane]

I would like to see all new programmes.

 

[Zora]

Orihara/Pirinen's 2022/23 free dance

 

[noskates]

I guess I don't understand why you would want someone to skate an old program in an Olympic year that the judges have already seen.

 

[Arigato]

It got some guy who pals around with Winnie the Pooh a gold medal. On a side note, I really would have liked to see Andrew skate his SP from this season at the OLYG. A shame that won't happen.

 

[Ivana]

None. There are a lot of programs I enjoyed during this Olympic cycle, but don't want to see them back and prefer new ones instead.

 

[noskates]

I think Hanyu would have won that gold medal no matter what he skated to. I don't believe you can say that about many other skaters.

 

[Ziotic]

Wakabond

I would love to see this, only because it was supposed to be at the Olympics in 2018 but missed its opportunity.

 

[maofan]

I would like to see new creative programmes, with good music interpretation and performances reaching the audience.

 

[Ruthypegs]

Kevin Aymoz's Bolero - which he is bringing back for the Olympics - so I'm very happy!

 

[Jeanie19]

Isabeau. Moon River short program. I love it.

 

[el henry]

Andrew has skated L'Enfer two seasons already. As the original Andrew fangirl personally, I would love to see Bloodstream again, but that's not going to happen. IMO he will and should get new programs.

IMO the Olympic season repeats (except for GOATs like Yuzu) are generally repeats from one season, or programs that were cut short by injury or other issues. For example, I don't know if we consider Jason's Spiegel im Spiegel as impacted by his boot issues, and should he try it again? Tarzan on the other hand has had its day, and Rohene needs to come up with another one.

 

[Skating47]

I would love to see Jason bring back Riverdance for the Olympic season. However, I don't think that he is going to do it. Also, Jason could use Spiegel im spiegel for the Olympics. However, it would be awesome if he did two new programs for the Olympics.

I guess I don't understand why you would want someone to skate an old program in an Olympic year that the judges have already seen.

Why does a great musician like Glenn Gould perform the same pieces over and over (and people like me and mine buy those performances over and over)? For those who are that great, there are always nuances of interpretation, shades of difference. For the not so great majority, there is the familiarity and feel that may make that fractional difference to their skates at the moment they really really need it.

We the fans, after all, aren't the ones reaching for Olympic glory in one of the few sports where doing the same thing as before is even noticed...

I think Hanyu would have won that gold medal no matter what he skated to. I don't believe you can say that about many other skaters.

True, but both pieces are close to his heart - both are included in his shows and Seimei (which he has called his masterpiece) is pretty much always the encore. And every performance is inimitable - I don't believe you can say that about many other skaters, either.

I am content to leave it in their own hands.
