Wheeeeeeee!!! Watching without any responsibilities or distractions

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Massot looks good.
I'm guessing he is having a happy life since Aliona stopped whipping him daily.

 

[Citlali]

That wasn't bad, I expected a lot worse for all the problems they have been having

 

[Sally1214]

Kovalevs did not too bad at all. They got the audience with them and I enjoyed their program. Good throws today. It makes me smile to see Camille looking so happy in the K/C. Looks like they are enjoying their Olympic experience.

 

[floridaice]

In respect to this thread title, Yes, I am entertained. Interesting music.

It's not Carmen, or a Muse song - I'm happy

 

[Theatregirl1122]

I really loved Deanna's SP dress. I'm not so sure about this FS dress

 

[Private Citizen]

I still can't believe this is the best France can do on Pairs.

Falla and Belle are a lot more watchable even if they don't have quite the same tech content.

 

[CassAgain]

Les Kovs have had a pretty nice Olympics—good for them!

 

[Matryeshka]

I feel like I might like this program on a different team. To pull off the whole leather-and-lace or glitter as the case may be, you need a smoothness and speed they just don't have. She is the least Frenchiest French skater and he's the least Russianiest Russian skater who ever did skate. I feel like they never got a program that actually worked that well.

 

[my little pony]

someone sent me a fluff piece about the polish restaurant in NY that sells the pierogi pillows, I wonder how many they have accumulated?

 

[Hanna]

The shade of fuchsia of Ioulia's skirt.

 

[flyingsit]

I love the simplicity of her dress. From the front. Then the back has way too many straps.

 

[skateycat]

During the warmup, Young Skateycat said that Michal Wozniak resembled a slutty Steve Jobs, and thought it was a hoot when I told her his last name was Wozniak.

 

[kemc]

Enjoying the Polish pair but waiting for something to happen with their music

 

[jadingirl]

Poland so happy!

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

During the warmup, Young Skateycat said that Michal Wozniak resembled a slutty Steve Jobs, and thought it was a hoot when I told her his last name was Wozniak.

Good thing they're doing good Jobs today.

 

[skateycat]

I love the simplicity of her dress. From the front. Then the back has way too many straps.

Young Skateycat didn't like the back of her dress either.

 

[Matryeshka]

Ack! Weird repeated post! So I'll take this opportunity to say that at the Olys, watching the early skaters gives me such joy who truly are just happy to be there. The Poles have had such amazing skates.

 

[rfisher]

Senior level pair teams doing axels for the sequence is just sad. Sadder than the fact most can't do a 3-3 combo.

 

[Moto Guzzi]

This dress could NOT make less sense if it tried. Why does it look like the top is kind of trying to be a tux jacket? Why is the ENTIRE side missing?

It needs an intervention. Camille, please talk to Madi Chock about designing a new one for you.

 

[PRlady]

I know she’s the Allison Reed of pairs but I like them anyway.

 

[Aceon6]

How the heck did Ioulia land that 2nd throw?

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

I’m trying to not let this music put me to sleep.

 

[delayedaxel]

She's smiling all the way through

 

[MacMadame]

This is a new dress for her, yes?

I still can't believe this is the best France can do on Pairs.

They have a fun junior team, Telemaque/Coulon but they're too young.

 

[Hedwig]

ah, love her reaction

 

[cygnus]

Polish girl is adorable. That is all.
