Let's watch skating together! Thursday, March 19th

[Jeschke]

@alchemy void can u see how many people are watching?
How many intruders?

 

[Aerobicidal]

Three couples in, we already have two "Balls."

This Czech woman looks like she could be related to Mysliveckova.

 

[Hanna]

3rd skate, 2nd Great Balls of Fire.

I see the creativity in music choices is an age old problem.

2nd Great Balls of Fire.

Playlist by @alchemy void , all I am going to say

Did Judy Blumberg submit this tape to apply as a technical specialist? She's savage AF.

 

[alchemy void]

I forgot about Katia's perfume.

I used to always smell the samples at Target.

Is she the commentator? I agree she's taking no prisoners.

"These aren't complicated lifts or lifts that really amaze you."

Someone needs to dub that commentary over a Papadakis program and see the uber meltdown.

I used to always smell the samples at Target.

That was totally me, only with Debbie Gibson's Electric Youth.

Someone call that 1-800 number and see if it still works.

Yup!

 

[alchemy void]

Um I kind of loving Punsalan/Swallow

 

[Jeschke]

The best for a while US team I never heard of

 

[Hanna]

The late 90's style is killing me. Both the crowd and the skaters.

I also gotta give it to the choreo of all of these - ridiculously cheesy. So many cheap tricks!

 

[Aerobicidal]

If we had FSU PBP during this era, I would have made so many jokes about Swallow choking that I would have been band harder than Cruisin.

Looks like about 14 people watching right now.

I almost went there.

 

[Jeschke]

Ah, just realize Navka/Morozov are not in this stream. What a shame

It's not quantity it's quality

 

[alchemy void]

Watching this without commercial breaks is making it hard to multi-task

I know! It's a breakneck pace. Honestly, I think it would have been kind of awesome if the commercials were left in.

 

[mjb52]

"When she goes under there's no grabbing"

 

[rfisher]

People at work are bothering me! Go make your own decisions. I've got skating to watch! But, since they keep skating to the same music I keep thinking I'm seeing everybody.

We have ladies in here, behave!

#TeamD
Wheeee!

 

[alchemy void]

Late 90s voiceovers!

 

[Hanna]

Oooh Winkler/Lohse! A team that I actually remember.

All the scrunchies are killing me. I didn't like them back then and I don't like them now.

 

[LeafOnTheWind]

I remember the hate I had for the ESPN crawl

 

[Aerobicidal]

Was that the first voiceover in the history of figure skating?

 

[mjb52]

I mis-remembered and thought we were going to be seeing tangos so imagine my dismay when that first note of Great Balls of Fire came on... I'm still recovering tbh

 

[meggonzo]

Did we miss Shpilband in the kiss n cry with P/S? (He was their coach, right?)

 

[Hanna]

Germans are actually good to my eye! Nice speed and unison, good edges!

OMG young Skotnicky
