Who knew SA could be such a
and entertaining event¡ Please make it happen later in the game always from now on.
My impressions
Pairs
Empress Aliona and that jock that lifts her: Im sad that masterpiece of a program is losing its magic with each showing. granted it was too dificult even for our empress. My heart will ache for her when she misses olympic gold for a third time but then again Robin is not there anymore so it wont hurt as much.
Duhamel and Radford: Im not the typical D&R hater but this was duller than usual for them.
Yu& Zhang: She's a true rockstar. I Love her. If I was there I would have wasted tons of money in buying her a huge teddy bear aswell. And Star Wars soundtrack was nicely used.
The Knierims: I have realized Chris is getting hunkier and hotter each day. Shes very lucky, at least in the love department because the skating is still meh.
Enbert: I know im in the minority here but I dont see whats his appeal. Hes not attractive at all IMO but really liked the semi costume change.
Other US Pairs : No one cares.
Men
The guys were really in lemming mode this time around. Jumping and falling and hurting themselves as if their lives depended on it
Chen: Best SP of the season but why so greedy on the LP kid, is only hurting your chances.
Rippon: Never a fan but credit when its due. Hes a fighter.
Voronov: Silverfox
His face on the K&C was all kinds of awesome.
Chinese boys:
So pretty, so fragile.
Salmon boy: As much
he gives us, im starting to feel the 2nd ISR spot is a waste.
Canadian C Team: No one cares
Dance
Really strict panel in this event which made for tons of shocked faces during K&C . Beautiful.
Shibutanis: Best SD of the season and Still US #1. Im getting ready for the H&D heartbreak.
Cappellini & Lanotte: Given their limited potential they have achieved so much but I fear they still want some better results. Dont be silly kids, just enjoy your last ride.
Katsalapov and no personality blond russian girl: I'll break my promise and give a do-hard list award. If anyone deserves going hard with no mercy on him its Nikita.
Gilles & Poirier: Bring back the voids please
Zahorski & Guerreiro: Sad, goodbye Euros trip. The improvement they showed at their last event was nowhere today. Really stagnated.
Parsons: another junior champ team bites de dust. Who thought repeating the legendary Missing was a good idea?
Ladies
Miyahara: I confess I have never been a fan of hers. I concede shes elegance on ice and i'll sound cliche but this is a sport first. those jumps shouldnt give anyone a podium finish. Shes lucky the caller was generous because the US girls were also participating.
Sakamoto: I adore that Amelie program. Amazing K&C reaction. I just want to pretend JPN has 5 spots and not get anxious about it.
Tenell: It's official, we have a new Polina Edmunds in the house. Wagner knew it too well.
Daleman: So fricking hot, so delusional about her scores.
Tsurskaya:
She just gave RUS fed the perfect excuse for not going with a full Eteri team.
Sakahnovich: I know shes also a big fave around here but I dont see the appeal either. The program was a sequence of lifeless jumping passes until the last 30 seconds , was she paying homage to late Plushy's carreer?
Gosh, I love her! Hope to see her keep killing it in the future! 
But, I'm sure he knows they've made huge progress this year. There's still lots of work to do, but she's going in the right direction.
