I bet Terry Gannon is having Jeremy Abbot flashbacks, because I sure I am...

It was - it was Mariah's long from Nationals, Alyssa's long from Nationals, Chock & Bates free dance Nationals, Calalang and Johnson's long from Nationals, Nathan and Yuzuru and Alena Kosternaia from the Grand Prix Final, with Johnny and Tara giving a little set up from their homes. Nice tip of the hat to Terry not being there by Tara ending with "As Terry Gannon would say, so long, everybody." BTW, I posted over in the gymnastics thread Terry commentating on Simone Biles' handstand challenge, since he's taken over play by play for gymnastics.

‘Higher, Baby” for the Dream Team. I remember there was a puff piece about Olga Korbut, who made me a gymnastics fan, to “For A Dancer” by Jackson Browne.

He said in a podcast that he was going to do gymnastics for Tokyo - he did both weeks of golf at Rio so I guess he’ll do gymnastics, then women’s golf (he called canoe and rowing for London) - isn’t gymnastics first week? Or is it both?

Airing Sunday at 2 Eastern on NBC in the US: Season wrap up

I've seen a couple of people do it, but it's to put on a shirt. Someone famous's child put on pants and a shirt but I can't remember who....here's Lolo Jones: https://ftw.usatoday.com/2020/04/lolo-jones-hilariously-one-ups-jake-gyllenhaal-tom-holland-in-handstand-t-shirt-challenge

i came to CI because of Logan and I liked him with Barek (never knew why Sciorra left and they never really explained Barek going back to the FBI, I think?) and Falacci. I liked Barek as they went along because she was pretty insufferable in their first ep together where she betrayed his confidence during an interrogation. I would have liked to have seen Logan and Eames work together (although "Oceans 2" in "Wee Small Hours" never fails to crack me up). Wheeler was just...there. I really was upset that she did nothing when Logan was getting the crap beaten out of him by the firefighters and I don't think their partnership ever recovered from that - at least I never thought much of her after that.

Terry Gannon announces Simone Biles' handstand challenge:

There are two out of work British sport commentators doing freelance commentary, this is the first one: No rhythm gymnastics

Yes, it was the Russians trading with the French so that their dance team would win and the Russian pair. Allegedly - I don’t remember that anyone really got punished except the French judge who told.

Several of them (Teri has the cast right?) “jump” the handles over their knees - it may be their shape at first but I see people who are stick shaped do the same in my gym. If you just adjust a little, it’s a smooth row and you won’t stop yourself if you’re ever in an actual rowing shell. If you jump the handle, you would dig the oars into the water and stop yourself cold. Concept 2 who makes the machine has a video: Here

Drives me nuts that these trainers can’t teach them to use the rowing machine correctly. Erica sounds like Jillian to me.

I love the investigation in this one, especially when they quiz the patrol cop to get to the “keys, genius!” The bar crawl is fun too. Lennie knows every bar in Manhattan. Also love Lennie kicking the table - shades of Prince of the City. I hate that later ep with the implication that Olivet and Logan had an affair precisely because of this episode. Noth and McCormick did play a couple in a little movie called “Burnzy’s Last Call,” from 1995.

Earlier this year, Michael did Instagram videos of meals from his book and right now, he’s doing daily dinners for everyone staying home. He’s Chefsymon on Instagram.
