Skate America 2025 Women’s Free -Misses Accomplished

[CantALoop]

That was harsh from Johnny (he'd rather watch people do crossword puzzles!).

Maybe he and Tara should do crossword puzzles - they might learn a few more vocabulary words that allow them to say more with less

 

[Matryeshka]

That was harsh from Johnny (he'd rather watch people do crossword puzzles!).

Yeah, as soon as he said it I almost went back and deleted my comment I felt so awful, but everyone's seen it and some have reacted to it. I texted someone I know who is there the comment I was so shocked by it.

 

[Spikefan]

He said he'd rather sit on a park bench and do crossword puzzles all day than watch Haein. He's not wrong, that program was pretty snoozy.

Those are things you say here, not a national broadcast.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

If I never hear Ashley Wagner's screeching on my screen again, it will have been too soon.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Johnny needs to learn what an inside thought is.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Also, can Ben think up a phrase other than “you know her… you love her!”

 

[Karen-W]

Those are things you say here, not a national broadcast.

Why? Dick Button would have said something similar in his day. He called Angela Nikodinov a freakin' fridge break skater in her early years!

 

[jenny12]

Thats not a heh.

Yeah, I like when people are honest and critical but his and Tara’s commentary just varies between vapid and dickish.

 

[slicekw]

Small dog required some time, so I missed the first group. Any skates worth rolling back to see?

 

[Lilia A]

Those are things you say here, not a national broadcast.

My thoughts exactly. It's one thing for random people on the internet to say something like that, but when it's a well known skater being paid money to give his professional opinion on national TV, it's a different story. I know she's young and probably never followed Johnny during his skating years, but I hope Haein never looked up to Johnny because that'd be even worse.

Starr always so beautifully tiffed

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Why does Starr’s dress have a tail?

 

[Badams]

Starr's dresses are always so beautiful!

 

[peibeck]

Eh... Dick Button often pulled more punches than Johnny did with his comment about Haein's (lack of) interpretation of Carmen.

 

[slicekw]

Why does Starr’s dress have a tail?

Oh man, now I can’t stop watching the damned tail.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Eh... Dick Button often pulled more punches than Johnny did with his comment about Haein's (lack of) interpretation of Carmen.

I think you’re using the phrase pulled punches backwards.

 

[Karen-W]

Starr looks absolutely gorgeous. Awww, Luke's sitting with her mom & sister, praying she has a great skate!

 

[Sylvia]

Starr's singing starts... now!

 

[Matryeshka]

To me, Rinka's the overall better skater. But Alysa has...something, some ephemeral quality that makes you ignore some of her shortcomings. I don't care which one of them wins as long as one of them does.

 

[peibeck]

Starr got her 3z back???

 

[Vagabond]

Those are things you say here, not a national broadcast.

True. You can call someone a fridge break, but you can't suggest that viewers should be outside with their television sets off.

Starr looks gorgeous in absolutely any color. But what's with all the random pieces of fabric?

 

[beckab81]

Has Starr had a 3Z for a while? I thought she didn’t have the full set of jumps.

Thrilled for her to have a good skate at home.

 

[canbelto]

Ah, the Twilight programs are back. I like the red dress too. And that matching of tights to skin tone is amazing.

 

[MacMadame]

Starr looks gorgeous in absolutely any color. But what's with all the random pieces of fabric?

I think they are blood trails.

 

[Wyliefan]

Starr sings beautifully. I wish she'd chosen a song that went better with the first one, though.

 

[Belsornia]

Starr showing the power of knowing this is the last time. What a great performance.

I like her cover more than the Sleeping at Last original too.

 

[slicekw]

I’m loving this new Starr. That was so lovely. Even the vocals worked.

 

[Citlali]

Starr

 

[Private Citizen]

Epic skate from Starr! This is the best performance from a US woman outside of Liu, Glenn, and Levito this season!

Her lutz looks so much improved, though I'm not completely convinced it was off an outside edge. Can whoever fixed it please lend a hand to Levito?
