I had such a good time watching Worlds, I am seriously considering robbing a Waffle House to go to a live event next year. I am weirdly so ready for this season to be over but also ready for next to start. As for ice dance, I'll still watch. I don't like that FB/C are the best and won but...

Ice Dance is in desperate need of new blood. I hope some new teams rise out of juniors and with the Browns just stomps all over everyone (except Z/L and L/B). I don't care from which country. If LaLa stay in and get away from Marie Universe, they do shall be exempt from said stomping. Why did...

I love Laurence over-annunciating the lip synching of La Marseillaise. That's the best part. I need a break from this post-podium song. Its peppiness makes me feel stabby.

Sbohem Pra-ha! This has definitely been an above-average post-World Olys but I'm ready for this season to be over. I mean, we're here for the drama but this was like Bravo levels of drama.

I have mixed feelings about F/G v. Z/K. I think the two point deduction was :yikes: and largely have the same reaction as Kolesnik. BUT. I also think even had F/G been perfect, they should be behind Z/K.

I'd have loved to see van Gogh one more time. I guess conventional wisdom says they couldn't possibly create that magic again they had for the Olys, but that's also what people said about Alysa and Donna Summer and Boston, and well... Though I do like this program. Just think, if the Canadian...

I don't think Vadym agrees with that -2 deduction

So I did for my duty for democracy and am back in time for the final group. Saw the placements and holy hell what happened? What pictures do R/A have to be so high up? What happened to CarPom? WHY are L/B marked SO LOW.

Ilia will only be 25 for France 2030. Yuma would only be 26. That's wild to think about.

No. I'm sorry, I'm OK with him winning overall, but his score should be way closer to Yuma's. His tech score should have dropped by at least five points. Oh well, I got to see Yuma's free clean and that's a win. For me. And that's what's important. Verner is as annoying as screamy as Wagner...

I saw 3A too, but then, I don't see jumps all that well. I think the tech score should drop...maybe Yuma still has a chance? 🤞

3FL instead of 4Loop. Ilia's getting smart.

I didn't think it was a total disaster 🤷‍♀️ Adam's done worse. I just think he needs to bring back fun Adam, not this art of man soul look ma I'm an artist crap. It's such a weak version of his SP and honestly kind of lazy. Very few skaters can take the idea of a continuing theme and do it...

So, which of you gave Stephen the voodoo doll? I don't know which is more underwhelming as a reveal--Daniel or Adam. They need to go to Kurakova to see how to do a proper reveal. If you're not scared the skater's not about to go into burlesque territory, you're not doing it right. If it ain't...

Note to Ilia: No quad lutzes today. Lutzes are BAD.
