  1. Is that who Eteri's daughter is skating for now? First Russia, then the US, and now Georgia? Keep switching countries until you land on one that needs a Dance team (which made their jump to the U.S. odd. Yes, I know she was born here, but they didn't have a prayer of breaking onto the World Team at U.S. Nationals). Switch to Pairs if you want that, honey. What a World's!! It was loaded with great performances in each discipline. Kind of makes the Russia Stans on social media, claiming that skating was dead without Russia and no one would watch without them, eat a huge bags of d*cks.
  2. He stumbled and they got a 1.00 deduction for the fall. It's too bad because they were doing well.
  3. Maybe Deniss was given the "tired, old musical warhorse deduction." Didn't he skate to Hallelujah? :) This deduction is given to Hallelujah, Carmen and maybe Nessun Dorma.
  4. So, the U.S. gets two pairs for next year's World's by finishing 11, 12 and 13. A bit depressing with the placements, but at least it's not just one pair. With Deanna being 40, do you think she'll stick it out for two more years now that she's a World Champion? Green/Parsons are not in the Dance line up. Bratti/Somerville are the third pair. Was that the way that they were chosen, or are G/P injured?
  5. Even harder to watch was Boyang Jin. He didn't qualify for the free skate, ending up in second to last place, and was crying as Brian Orser patted his back in the Kiss and Cry. A hard fall for a former World medalist. Anyone else think that Ilia seemed exhausted at the end? He landed everything. No mistakes, but he seemed tired. If he feels slighted by his scores, perhaps that will energize him to prove the judges wrong.
  6. With next year's World's in the US, what is the magic number to have two pair qualify?
  7. I still REALLY dislike the skater interacting/flirting with the judges panel. You don't need that. And how has Leona not had a wardrobe malfunction in that dress? Double sided tape? Super glue? I remember al the complaining about Katarina Witt's "showgirl" dresses. One was molting all over the ice and leaving feathers ('88 Olympic short program dress?)
  8. Don't they go by season rankings? A point system for every result? So Isabeau may still be ranked higher? I don't know, I'm just guessing.
  9. I have Peacock streaming the Rhythm Dance on Friday, at 11:20 AM. The US Figure Skating Instagram account posted the schedule a few days back.
  10. Especially since C&B's rhythm dance is to Queen. Something 99% of Americans know and most would find appealing. Just caught the end of the pairs short on Peacock. All three U.S. teams qualified for the Free, but we aren't getting three spots for next year, that's for sure. Kam and O'Shea are in 10th. That's the highest placement. We're back to the Pairs struggle bus. Just in time for the Olympic year. What is the magic number we need for two spots next year? I wonder why Alexa and Brandon didn't stay until the next Olympics. Did they figure that the cheaters would be back and why bother? They won a World Championship, so they're good? I HOPE that they get their silver or gold team medal, soon. Major eyeroll.
  11. You think now that she's 18, she's coming back because she can now make her own decisions regarding her career? No more daddy butting in? Wasn't he a big time buttinsky control freak? Or am I remembering incorrectly?
  12. I have noticed that since the doping scandal at the Olympics, Johnny has toned down his worship for all things Russian. Whether that was a personal decision or one based on "we're not going to glamourize cheating" by NBC, I don't know, but I notice the lack of the rapturous and orgasmic over-pronunciation of Russian names, and I thank 8 pound 6 ounce newborn infant Jesus who don't even know a word yet, for that. I mean, he still does it, but not as often or as obvious as he used to. As far as GS and their trashing of Chock and Bates, I remember someone commenting that they're mostly G/P fans. So, we're back to the Canada vs U.S., V/M fans trashing D/W, now? I guess if I went over there and asked why Piper has her mouth open like a blow up doll when she skates, they'll get pissed off? :D
  13. It's sad that Ice Dancing is so political that a pair feel they HAVE to skate when so obviously ill, or lose some clout going into World's. If C/B didn't win Nationals, would the international judges move them down below the Italians and Canadians, like they're a ranked college football team with a BYE week who sat home eating cheeseburgers while everyone else played? Good grief. Evan looked soo miserable. When they finished and he leaned into Madi, he was flushed and sweating profusely, not to mention panting like crazy. I thought he was going to pass out right there on the ice. And yet, Patrice still hugged him in the kiss and cry. I'd be like, "Nice job, let's fist bump. Where's the Purel?" Carreira and Ponomarenko won the free dance. Love to see that. Anthony's reaction when the scores went up was so sweet. Well, it was nice having a strong pairs team for a couple of years. Now we're back to a splat fest. We seriously have to send three of these teams to World's? Can we give one of those spots to the ice dancers, or the ladies? Save a spot for next year? Yikes. I'd have a hard time imaging any of them qualifying for the long program at World's.
  14. Pleasantly surprised to see that Peacock has the replays up. I forgot to record the rhythm dance and pairs short yesterday,
  15. I loved Davis and White's Phantom. I go back and forth between this and Bollywood as my favorites of their's. I think Phantom is a showcase for Charlie, while Bollywood is Meryl. Skipping Nationals for 4CC? Tell me that's not weird.
