2026 Olys Pairs FS PBP - Are We Not Entertained?

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

This is the only way for Annika to have some meatloaf....

 

[Citlali]

Annika and Robert you must skate clean for loveeeeee

 

[Bunny Hop]

Fedor Klimov keeps popping up in the kiss and cry. He seems to be building up a decen cache of skaters wherever it is he is coaching.

 

[Wyliefan]

The opening chord of this song sounds like the opening to the "Cheers" theme song, and now I'm thinking about what a fun program that would make.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Maybe A/R have been skating to Slumdog Millionaire because they can't hear the music so they don't even know it's the same program?

 

[Matryeshka]

I NEEEEED THAT PRETZEL. Pretzel and pierogi would be a most excellent treat right now

 

[CantALoop]

He's not my usual type but I find Robert

 

[alj5]

nice SBS 3S from Annika & Robert!

 

[ilovepaydays]

OMG it’s Meatloaf at the Olympics - and it’s THAT song.

 

[overedge]

Superficial comment, but ice-blue stones and sequins on deep plum fabric are giving me the ick.

 

[Sylvia]

This Meatloaf song was Ken Mikawa's SP music at U.S. Nationals.

 

[my little pony]

meatloaf is so perfect for this team, go Annika!

 

[Aimless]

Music by Mr. Loaf, as the NYT used to call him.

 

[LeafOnTheWind]

Give them extra points for unusual music choice. They will be my eternal favs if it suddenly switched to Paradise by the Dashboard Lights.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Robert is the Shane to my Ilya.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

This costume is deeply ugly. I don't know how you put it on all the time and don't notice it's awful.

 

[kemc]

Meatloaf bringing back dancing while intoxicated vague-ish memories from many years ago

 

[VALuvsMKwan]

Weren't there Faberge eggs and Hermes ashtrays, too? And furs.

Loved the Armenians' throws. The rest? Not so much.

Hi to Hindernisse and Andrey aka Pushkin who were on TV with the flag .

Ha! I'm a couple of floors down from 5 Faberge Imperial Easter Eggs at Virginia Museum of Fine Arts right now.

 

[JoannaLouise]

Eek, that lift almost ran out of gas!

 

[CantALoop]

Craaaaawling on that lift

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

I'll do anything for love except do a carry lift with any kind of speed.

 

[LeafOnTheWind]

Oof... That lift was so slow

 

[my little pony]

oh dear that lift scared me right to my emergency chocolate

 

[floridaice]

Superficial comment, but ice-blue stones and sequins on deep plum fabric are giving me the ick.

It's the hearts on their backs that bother me.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

How is that lift currently averaging any positive GOE?

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Oh, dear, that lift almost came to a stop. But these throws are phenomenal.

 

[Wyliefan]

I hate when a lift stutters to a stop like that.

 

[miffy]

I have really started to appreciate Hocke now that she's not skating with a partner I dislike (I didn't like either of the previous two).

 

[Colonel Green]

That lift slowed to whatever is less than crawl speed.

 

[beepbeep]

I appreciate Hocke/Kunkel giving us proper Olympic Meatloaf cheese.
I just love this program.
