2026 Olys Pairs FS PBP - Are We Not Entertained?

[Firedancer]

Not perfect but I loved that from Emily and Spencer. Their lifts were great and they were flying at the end. I really hope this is not their last event

 

[Hanna]

Wheeeeeeee Marchei

During the pandemic I assumed they - Emily & Spencer - were dating (reading into their Instagram posts/stories), but I don't know if that was actually true.

Yes they dated at one point, then broke up but continued skating together. It's gotta be tough to do that. And it's insane to give exes lovey-dovey schlock.

The battery in my keyboard is almost out of power, so I'm going to plug it in to recharge it. I may be quiet for a while unless I can figure out some McGyver way to use it while it's charging. Snark on.

Rich Man’s Frug from Sweet Charity might fit better lol

Steven Sondheim is a brilliant lyricist but his music isn’t catchy or skateable IMHO

"Send in the Clowns" has been used a lot.

His later music is probably less "skateable" but his early music has a lot of ear worms, imo.

 

[Aussie Willy]

Japanese man looks determined.

 

[miffy]

Wheeeeeeee Marchei

She still looks perfect. I know she's not old at all but I would have expected her to look a little different in 8 years!

I'm still sad she was always 4th place at everything in Ladies and Pairs

 

[Colonel Green]

The television coverage of freestyle skiing and snowboarding never makes any attempt to explain how the scoring system works. Figure skating does way, way better, I have to say.

 

[Aussie Willy]

What is Tim Dieck wearing today?

Rooting for Ellie and Danny.

 

[my little pony]

I twisted my back putting clothes in the dryer, I could be nicer about the pairs spins

Steven Spielberg, Stephen Sondheim - getting those spellings correct hits close to home.

 

[Messalina]

Camelot has so much good music! And: A Little Night Music. Candide. Hello Dolly. Brigadoon. Anything Goes. Kiss Me Kate ...

And these are just off the top of my head from the golden years of the musical

I've always thought any Dance or Pairs teams that dated then broke up, yet still skate together, should do angerily passion driven programs that end up with somebody dead on the ice.

 

[floridaice]

Looks like Bruno shaved today

 

[tangerine dream]

What is Tim Dieck wearing today?

Love Tim. Seeing him cheering wildly in his Matador costume makes me think that in the future he's going to be the dad hooting and hollering at his 4-year-old daughter's ballet recital.

I can imagine that. He was having a blast yesterday.

 

[Finnice]

Mozer and me are equally old. Either of us have aged nicely.

 

[Hanna]

What is Mozer doing in Milan?

Seriously. The drivel Hubbell/Donohue skated to after they broke up makes me sad when there was so much potential for drama!

You should look up Stolbova/Klimov's Argentine Tango.

 

[Amy L]

What is Mozer doing in Milan?

She's been with Ellie and Danny's team.

 

[flyingsit]

Skary makeup on Conti

 

[Skaterbob]

Wow that wrap on her leg is intense. I hope she is okay.

 

[Karen-W]

Chan/Howe will be no worse than 9th at the Olympics, that's really good considering they're basically the 4th best US pair.

I'd say that's debatable. They nearly beat McBark overall at Nats despite the disaster SP.

 

[skategal]

Here we go! I feel like anything could happen in these last 2 groups.

Suspense…

 

[peibeck]

Wenjing looks like she needs to channel her inner Michelle Yeoh

 

[Jayar]

Who is the gentleman in the KnC with every single Italian skater? Team leader?

 

[Messalina]

Errrrg. I thought we were on 'pairs pt 2' and was sitting here watching a screensaver and missing half of C/M
