Thank you for new thread.Yes, these two extra years of competing are just for them and just for us!
I was at Stars on Ice in London yesterday and was able to attend the "Meet & Greet" after the show. Tessa and Scott were SO amazing to meet. They seemed so appreciative of all the fan support and were so generous with the time they spent with each of us. I live in Waterloo, Ontario, where they trained as teenagers and I was able to share with them that my kids go to their old high school and that many of the textbooks in circulation at the school still have Tessa's and Scott's names in them. Scott was so funny as he deadpanned, "Thank goodness they can see my old books but not my old report cards."
As far as program information goes, I told them that, while I loved their programs this year, Carmen was my absolute favourite and Scott told me that they were working on something for next season that might remind me a little of Carmen. If that turns out to be true, I can't wait!! Next season can't come soon enough...
Lol if we end up with Pride and Prejudice…I don't even want to think about it.OMG!!
Maybe that's more the direction for the SD? If the report is true they don't have music, that worries me. We can't end up with another Seasoon on our hands.Weird, did they working on something like Carmen or didn't have any music yet???
So they really haven't chosen music yet for the Olympics? After three years to think about it?
I am sure a little bit of Carmen is about FD.
But with TS we couldn't be sure in anything from other hand.
That unknown girl posted that they also didin't choose nothing for SD, didn't like music and couldn't choose music with right rythm.
As for Carmen. Maybe i am wrong, but how Carmen could be considering like something for SS with Samba, Rhumba, Salsa rythm?
Who is that girl, who said they disn't choose music?I have the feeling that the biggest complication for the FD choice comes from the fact that they really want to be different and think in that direction, while the coaches most probably think that they must play safe and not risk to provoke judjes too much. To find the best inbetween is a tough task
The question is - if Scott really said that, did he mean something a bit like their 'Carmen' FD in terms of style/choreography or just the attitude of Carmen/relationship between Carmen and Jose? And if it's the attitude/their relationship - is it similar to how it was in their FD or does it resemble Carmen in the way she is most often shown and viewed? If what Scott said was about the SD, then I am betting on the latter (Carmen attitude in a more widespread understanding - a woman who tempts men, plays with them etc., but is playful and flirty rather than truly cruel and using her sexuality in a blatant way like Tessa's Carmen in their FD).As for Carmen.

Weird. But that Scott said "something a little bit, like Carmen" we know for sureA Canadian friend of a russian fan. I do not know why the information differs. May be they are just not telling exactly how is the whole situation.

I am sure no, but will see, maybe we are both wrong.I'm guessing that many people have told them that what they remember about Carmen was its sexwiness, so I b et that's what he means when he says the program will be something like Carmen.
Well based on what Tessa said near the end of the interview about their preparation for the season, it seems what @irena shared about the fan meeting them is most likely true. Also while it looks like they wouldn't mind doing back to back GPs, Scott also said they're not expecting to get it so I'm still betting on SCI and NHK. I agree with them about Ted Flatt he asks interesting questions.Golden Skate just posted a 17+ minute video interview from the tour stop in Hamilton. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHTzVB1rR9Y&feature=youtu.be
On why they chose not to do the Stars on Ice tour this year, what they’ve taken from past olympic cycles, watching worlds in Boston in 2016, skating the FD at worlds after the world record in Helsinki, the choice to wear her hair in a bun at worlds, she wanted a new dress for the FD, perceptions of them as a team online, the big change over the past year, plans for the off season, ideas for next season’s programs and the team competition at the olympics.
- They are going to continue working with Sam Chouinard and David Wison as well as Marie-France for choreography
- They want to do back-to-back grand prix events to simulate the team competition to the individual competition for the olympics
Lol Emma Watson and David Beckham partner switch. These were both really good interviews.I love the interview especially Tessa's giggle and how she complimented Scott about his performance at worlds. They are just so amazing.
This interview by ETalk is cute as well: https://vimeo.com/216654594
