OK, I made it through 3 segments of Day 1 commentary from Tara, Johnny, & Tracy (all trying to break the event into supposed head-to-heads between such & such team and another team); and I just want to say this. These people have a heck of a lot more confidence in their ability to predict where men will finish than I have in their ability to predict where men will finish.

I'd like to remind Kevin that this competition is taking place in Milano, Texas.

Tony, are you there for him????

So do all the dance teams who could mathematically qualify just hang around backstage waiting to go on right up until the men's short results are finalized?

Great question! Presumably, yes, since they have to have time to get warmed up & ready beforehand.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Yeah, there is a break, but not long enough that I think they wouldn’t be there.

Not for the team event but this means little to nothing for France. They aren't in the medals and this can be a test run, whether good or bad.

I present a practice vid from Skate America. I was way up in the stands. Think he saw me?

Update: I think I thought the Men's SP started hours earlier than it actually does. I had it starting in like 15 minutes, but I think it starts in 2 hours.

 

[Desperado]

I'm here. Go Gogolev!!

 

[peibeck]

I actually need it to start a few minutes late as my lunch is still cooking.

We're such high maintenance fans!!!

 

[Lizziebeth]

I am here and we are live on Peacock!!!

[Karen-W]

[victorskid]

The introductions of group 1 are happening

 

[genevieve]

W00t!

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

OK, I'm extra caffeinated and ready to snark!

 

[Brooke]

No TV commentators on my Peacock stream. Please let that stay the case!

 

[floridaice]

Please no menning today!!

 

[just tuned in]

First event that I am able to tune into "live."

All the replays are the network replays with useless commentary.

 

[my little pony]

ive eaten 4 times, I dont know why watching people exert themselves makes me so hungry

 

[LilJen]

Johnny has borrowed an outfit from 1895, I see.

 

[floridaice]

Stephen's new suit fits much better - not a zoot suit, which I think the original was supposed to be.

 

[Barbara Manatee]

It's only day 2 and I already want to yeet this Pixar beaver into the sun.

 

[Desperado]

I see no difference with Gogolev's costume outside of the darker colour.

 

[just tuned in]

Crap!! Commercials!

Feh this AI red-haired child.
