The ISU are definitely a little confused and paranoid about it. Remember that period right when the music worries were most acute, when they weren't even broadcasting the direct music feed, they were picking up the in-arena sound on their mics to deliberately make it shittier, in an apparent...

Ted said one time, when commenting a senior event for the ISU, that they were instructed to talk during programmes for seniors, but not juniors. He didn't give the exact reason.

Yes, it makes more sense from the angle in the video you shared - on the videos I'd seen before, it looked identical to their previous performances. Assuming that's the reason, I'll stop complaining about the call, though I do wonder if they'd been warned about it. I kinda hope it scares people...

Same, but I think Mark especially is usually good, so I might put it down to exhaustion after a very long season. I'm confiscating the word "showcased", though.

idk, but the cautious chorus of mild "wooo"s when he took his shirt off cracked me up, everyone was like: oh! okay, we know you're in your 20s now and want to be sexy, that's totally cool, you just took us by surprise there, is all, next time we promise we'll be ready!

Agree with you about quality, but regarding the F/G complaining, isn't that a good thing, that shows people aren't just being biased for/against them? Teams should lose if they lack quality, not on inconsistently applied technicalities.

The problem with this is that a.) they really shouldn't, and b.) wanting to get it back might keep Guillaume in for another year instead of retiring.

Look, I have issues with them as people but I don't actually think it's possible to overmark that.

Love love love this FD, glad to see it again!

They both must work so hard. I can't remember the last time either of them made any kind of obvious mistake.

I think she's just super-method acting her Grief.

It doesn't even have to be a different team!

Protocol's up - went in as a 3A, don't worry. ;) https://results.isu.org/results/season2526/wc2026/FSKMSINGLES-----------FNL-000100--_JudgesDetailsperSkater.pdf

Olivia said that using "Let Me Entertain You" was chosen as a bit of a middle finger at the ISU demanding everything be "entertaining".

Is this the Cabaret FD they're gonna have next season, to continue the obvious pattern? (it feels incredible, but they haven't skated to Cabaret yet!)
