2026 US Nationals Women's FS "Liu Monsters go Gaga"

[Sarah]

I don't think she should be on the Junior world team, but she certainly won't make it now.

Oh, dear... This has gone from hot-and-cold mess to utter mess.

I think we can safely cross her off the Jr Worlds consideration list.

I didn’t want this to be the reason why she wasn’t on the team! I just wanted other skaters on the team! Junior worlds just never went well for her.

Lisa Mckinnon is capable of doing stunning dresses. She was really inspired here.

 

[tangerine dream]

Okay ... I'd really like to have worn all that bling that Lee has on at some point in my life. Of course, it would look RIDICULOUS on me NOW ... but, just sayin' ... it would have been fun to be that "blinged-up" at some point. Oh well, that ship has sailed ....

You're never too old for a costume party!

 

[my little pony]

actually in memory care, French fries ARE vegetables

 

[Matryeshka]

Well...I appreciate that in both segment Josephine is trying to skate big to mature music.

 

[petro]

Oh dear. Well maybe since Josephine bombed at Nationals she’ll have a good international season next year? Is that how it works?

 

[peibeck]

Lucius Kazanecki is sitting by me on aisle to toss a stuffie to a friend. Gotta love these kids supporting each other.

You're never too old for a costume party!

Thank you. You are absolutely right about that. Maybe there's still hope.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

The Baileys is kicking in.

Hey, look, a cruise where you're further than 5 miles from the coastline! Granted, it's the Mighty Mississippi so you'll never see the coast, but that's irrelevant to the fact that they switched up the cruise line commercial from the past two nights, lol.

 

[my little pony]

they could let Ilia and Alysa pick some companies they like, let them call them, and prob get more appropriate ads

come on hair dye and teeth enamel ruiners

I'm not sure that the choreographer had a consistent idea of who the character was, but I thought Josephine did her best with what she was given to work with.

Hopefully! As much as she's underperformed at junior worlds and I wouldn't want to send her again, I hate to see anyone bomb at nationals.

I feel like Elyce's dresses look like she shops at the same store as the Korean ladies.

 

[canbelto]

I think Lin-Gracey is a gorgeous skater but i've never seen her skate anywhere close to clean ... like ever.

 

[personwhoishere]

Dating myself here, but does anyone else remember Alexei Yagudin skating to this?

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Don't worry, everyone, if you heard my cats screaming hysterically from hundreds and thousands of miles away because dinner was late, I have now fed them and I'll be allowed to live.

I do… I think

 

[tangerine dream]

She was unexpectedly great at junior worlds last year, placing third.

 

[Karen-W]

I feel like Elyce's dresses look like she shops at the same store as the Korean ladies.

I dunno... That's an awfully green skirt for a Korean lady... May not be muted enough.

Wasn’t it Joubert….

It's literally the only cruise I'd consider. I just told my daughter that I'd totally do that cruise because there's plenty of land around! I appreciate them telling me about it several times now

 

[Theatregirl1122]

This program is reminding me of my annoyance that M/K are skating to Gladiator and not using any of the best parts.

 

[personwhoishere]

Wasn’t it Joubert….

That I don't remember, but Yagudin definitely did in 2001

 

[myhoneyhoney]

Wasn’t it Joubert….

Someone skated to it….

 

[tangerine dream]

That I don't remember, but Yagudin definitely did in 2001

It was big in the 00s, I remember some Sasha Cohen fan edits to it.

 

[Badams]

Her reaction at the end was sort of concerning.

Gonna take a trip down memory lane during the ice cut https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rwy-pNScPA4

Their Columbia River Cruise they have goes through some very scenic territory with a very stark change in landscape on either side of the Cascades. I've made the drive through the Gorge more times than I can recall and it's sometimes rather hard to keep your eyes on the road due to the stunning scenery, especially on a clear summer day.

 

[Sarah]

Is Elyce ok?
