    Which figure skating discipline will have the most shocking result at these Milano Olympics?

    IMO the only fully shocking outcome will be if Ilia does not win the mens event. For all the other events there are a couple of potential winners, and numerous potential medalists. The only other potential shocking thing to me would be if there is more than one non-IAM dance team on the podium.

    2026 Olympics Team Event - Strategy, Predictions & Discussion

    If I'm Skate Canada, I split both events where they can - S/D would do the short in pairs, P/M the free. And for dance have G/P do the rhythm, L/L the free. For the US, it's definitely complicated as there's justification for splitting ladies, men and dance, but also justification for having...

    2025–26 Canadian Pairs: News and Updates

    It also wasn't a unique design, solely for her. If you look at the OdlR 'Spring 2026' runway collection, look 56 (at the bottom of the page) is the gown version of Deanna's SP dress. Though that dress isn't under the 'ready to wear' section, other intricately beaded gowns that are available for...

    2025–26 Canadian Pairs: News and Updates

    Per this article (scroll down), she estimates the gold one was worth $50-100k and was covered through her partnership with OdlR. She came up with the idea of a designer dress after the IOC passed a rule allowing any athlete to partner with haute couture designers for the Olympics. Not sure...

    The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

    I hope P/P do what they did last Olympics and wear one outfit for the team event and one for the individual one.

    2025–26 Canadian Pairs: News and Updates

    Congratulations to Lia and Trennt, and especially Trennt for finally making the Olympics! I may be in the minority, but I was underwhelmed by Deanna's dresses. The SP one was nice, but the skirt looked unfinished. And the FP one looked like it was made fabric you can buy from Fabricland -...

    2025–26 Canadian Men: News and Updates

    Well done to Gogolev! Amazing SP, and great job in the FP, especially after the doubled jump. He was under so much pressure and he's done so well to be able to keep it together like that. Though Stephen rightfully won, Roman was the skate of the night for me. I've never understood why his PCS...

    2025–26 Canadian Women: News and Updates

    Kudos to Maddie for that comeback in the FP. Her jumps are so pretty. And the new dress is gorgeous. Well done to Gabby for keeping it together after the doubled lutz. Not perfect, but definitely the best fight we've seen from her in years. Personally I'd have had Minsol place second, but...

    Director/Actor Rob Reiner & wife Michele found slain in their Brentwood home

    This one is hitting me harder than most other celebrity deaths, and not just due to the cause. Some of Rob's movies rank among my favourites, and for may Xennials like myself, he was the director of our childhoods.

    Director/Actor Rob Reiner & wife Michele found slain in their Brentwood home

    I didn't think it was possible but somehow every piece of news coming out about their death is worse than the last. Original reports made it seem like they died from stab wounds, which is bad enough, but TMZ is now reporting that

    The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

    Not sure if this has been addressed upthread, but does Laurence having her citizenship guarantee she'll be allowed to compete at the Olympics? Despite ISU only requiring 1 year between competing for different countries, the Olympic charter states that if an athlete has represented one country in...

    The Amazing Race - Season 38

    My thoughts too. In addition to Izzy being bitchy about them all race, plus her noticeably snubbing them at the airport, Izzy placed ahead of them in the previous leg, IIRC, so were feasibly a threat and I can understand U Turning them. I don't understand why the other girls were targeted...

    The Amazing Race - Season 38

    I don't watch BB so I don't know their dynamic from that show, but my goodness Izzy is annoying with her hatred of Jag, whereas Jag and Jas generally come across as friendly and positive people.

    What a ridiculous score for his tech content in that program

    The Amazing Race - Season 38

    First thing I said when I saw it was all BB contestants was 'I already know this season is going to be annoying'. I get it's not something the producers control, but the first people had it so much easier. And the length of time to finish the task - doesn't the time they reach the mat affect...
