Wow this is going to be a fun night of skating.

 

[Mathman]

I think Bourne and Zimmerman will have the best chance to win.

 

[Spun Silver]

This one actually sounds good. I don't know which pair to root for! :thumbsup:

 

[heyang]

I think Stephane and Shizuka will likely have the most difficult time since neither competed as part of a pair at the senior level. Mike W and Marie-France are the next 'weakest' with regards to pairs skills.

David and Elena likely have the biggest combined experience to do the 'wow' moves that could win votes.

John Z and Shae-Lynn should do well with at least the audience vote - not sure if Shae-Lynn's comfortable with the big pairs moves that John can do.

I keep on bringing up big paris moves because those are the 'wow' factors that will earn votes from people who aren't neccessarily die-hard fans of a particular skater.

So, what else is on?

 

[Blades of Passion]

David Pelletier and Elena Berezhnaya skating together is kind of shocking, don't you think?

 

[Bijoux]

um, when does the rochette family bury their therese. I'm getting weirded out by this scenario. I think Joannies Dad and others may need her. courage or just extreme toughness craving limelight? Reminds me a bit of Katia and the Sergei death, etc. Sorry

 

[colleen o'neill]

Didn't Shae try some pairs when she was a kid ? Or do I have her confused with someone else ?

I usually stay right away from these things, but I confess to being intrigued..we don't get to see Stephane all that often...

Yikes! The first notice I saw of this didn't mention Joannie ..

This does have some interesting pairings to say the least!
The Shiz/Steph pairing alone is enough for me to want to see this .....but Elena and David will also be fun.

Does anyone know if Rochette is going to Worlds?

I thought she said she would, but isn't this show a bit close worlds?

 

[Joesitz (RIP)]

Is this an attempt to revive ProAm competition or is it just to make a little money? Also won't this be in a casino in Foxwoods?

 

[Mathman]

David and Elena likely have the biggest combined experience to do the 'wow' moves that could win votes.

David, however, is by far the worst dancer of the group. This team will be weak in choreography.

 

[LongTimeLurker]

In think Silvia should be wary, very wary....

 

[lavender]

I think I'll watch this one. I miss the pro competions. I miss good competitions by the pros. I can't get into skating shows anymore and that's all they seem to do now.

 

[Jhar55]

When is this show on??

 

[demarinis5]

When is this show on??

There will be two live shows.

Friday March 19 - 8-10 EST ABC

Sunday March 21 - 7-9 EST ABC

 

[JuliusFelix]

Foxwoods? Wow, that's literally in my backyard. Perhaps I shall go and wave to GS from the audience.

 

[Teenes]

The TV broadcasts are only an hour each, so it's Mar. 19 8-9PM and Mar. 21 7-8PM. It'll be aired live, with audience voting on ABC.com (US and Canada only).

I've got all the info I could consolidate here:
