They were the only ones to bid for this years Worlds, so they got it by default. The Doha World Cups have lots of people at them. Tickets must have been really expensive? The horrible weather is keeping people from getting there?

This explains glurge pretty well. This Olympics was pretty glurge lite. Or maybe I just wasn't paying attention.

Looks like the Japanese ladies have to get it done. Come on Tiny Queen!

No one should be skating to Schindler's List. German or otherwise. It never looks good.

She's supposed to be using a song from Mission Impossible 2 but we'll see... More Swan Lake, Moulin Rogue, and Papa Can You Hear Me on the way. Gold medal to anyone using different music!

I agree. I had to go back and watch the FS. Plushy's sexy step sequence was... I don't even know. His routine was still more balanced that the Not!Russian ladies, although it's just jumps with a bit of arm waving in between. It's weird, judging by the YT comments, that the cult of Johnny Weir still thinks he should have gotten bronze. His routines wouldn't even make it to the Olympics now.

Lovely skate from Tiny Queen! It would be nice for her to sneak in there for bronze.

None. But there's a Swan Lake and a Black Swan.

Terry calls him John sometimes too. I think it's their in joke. Not a lot of interesting skating so far...

If this scores better than V/M I'll eat my knitting.

Isn't country hoping really just a problem in ice dance and pairs? There aren't a lot of cross country skiers skiing for different countries.

Chris' mother is Japanese so he might have done that anyway.

Did NBC pay the USFSA to bring Adam just for this? /jk

Phew they didn't make the podium! Skating while Russian was turned off today!

Oh I feel bad for Sui/Han. They're usually so lovely to watch. We'll see if Skating while Russian is in effect.
