I didn't really want it. I thought 'this is boring and the people are going to fall asleep'.
That is how I felt about this programme when watching it. But judging on the posts on this board other people apparently liked it very much so I suspect that my impressions had more to do with watching it on justintv with the quality not being particularly good. It must have looked much better for people watching it in the arena.
I was at the arena, and I will say it definitely looked much better when watching it live, in person. S/S had a power and conviction to their skating that clearly set them apart from the other teams at the event, and they were one of the very few non-Canadian skaters (and if I recall correctly, the only non-Canadian skaters) who received a full standing ovation among all the disciplines at Skate Canada.
