Skate America Free Dance -Chock and Awful

[genevieve]

Is this a new dress for Chock? It looks less yuck than I remember

Her hair and makeup is on point

 

[CantALoop]

whew thank goodness Madison’s skirt/cape is shorter and no longer down to her boots

 

[Allen]

I explained to my mom about LopBri having blue icy costumes because “Bjork is from Iceland” and she’s very distressed.

Bjork is another one of my favorites. Just another reason I love the Loparevas.

 

[shan]

OMG, did NBC really show how slow C&B were on the step sequence in the RD, and played it off as a PLUS?

For real.

 

[Citlali]

I cannot stand the broadcast with Tara and Johnny! Between the ads and the annoying commentary, it's terrible. What are the other options?

ISU youtube stream with a VPN

Ted has his moments (butchering names and messing up some data) but he isn't even 1/8 of the level of annoying Johnny and Tara can be

 

[Sally1214]

OH. MY. GOD. Johnny & Tara are giving Wicked a run for it's money with their looks today. So much for Johnny's demure, normal look from yesterday.

If it wasn't for the cat sleeping so comfortably on my lap, I'd jump up and turn on the TV right now. My curiosity is definitely piqued.

Many of us are watching the ISU YouTube feed with or without VPN.

I do appreciate Ponomarenko’s hobby of “dog whispering.”

 

[~tapdancer~]

Browns were the clear highlight of the first group. Hope they’ll get some post-season assignment(s) and start building for the next quad. Such fun skaters.

Yeah if we can ever get Chock and Bates to retire....

 

[once_upon]

I was thinking the GRINCH

That's true but they had a promo for wicked-for good, just before Johnny came on my screen

 

[Sally1214]

Awww .... I love Anthony's beautiful baby blue eyes. He looks so much like his mom.

 

[Kateri]

Bjork is another one of my favorites. Just another reason I love the Loparevas.

I love Bjork, and that's why I'm sad L/B's FD feels like a big missed opportunity. (Unless they fixed it since their last GP, but I doubt it)

 

[Hanna]

I want Christina's earrings.

 

[canbelto]

Didn't Davis/White skate to Notre Dame? Scott choosing this for C&P is ... interesting.

 

[slicekw]

Johnny tried so hard for Wicked he ended up zooming past and going back to the Hunger Games

Hunger Games is Johnny’s overall vibe.

 

[Allen]

I do appreciate Ponomarenko’s hobby of “dog whispering.”

I need him to come whisper to my dog. I got a Irish Wolfhound in May and he's truly a lovely dog, but more energetic than I can properly handle.

 

[canbelto]

I'm sorry that lift is so much like V&M's signature lift.

 

[Vagabond]

Yeah if we can ever get Chock and Bates to retire....

The 2034 Olympic Games will be in the U.S. Maybe that will be their final competition.

 

[Allen]

Hunger Games is Johnny’s overall vibe.

Yes, but usually like legal secretary or librarian in the Hunger Games.

 

[skateboy]

I guess I'm the only FSUer that feels this way, but... I like Johnny and Tara.

 

[Lanie]

This bores me sorry CPom

 

[Colonel Green]

Montreal Worlds was two seasons ago, guys, why are you doing this now?

 

[Braulio]

Didn't Davis/White skate to Notre Dame? Scott choosing this for C&P is ... interesting.

Yes they did but way much better program

 

[once_upon]

I wouldn't mind Anthony circling my waist and hips like that. Of course he would need a belt to circle me

 

[Hanna]

She did die beautifully at the end.

 

[Vagabond]

I guess I'm the only FSUer that feels this way, but... I like Johnny and Tara.

You do you.

 

[tony]

It was pretty meh honestly. Again it’s mostly him not moving so effortlessly especially in holds and long steps.

 

[MacMadame]

CarPon are not getting the levels. And their twizzles are under review.

 

[Wyliefan]

I guess I'm the only FSUer that feels this way, but... I like Johnny and Tara.

I don't hate them. They can be insightful at times. But there can also be a lot of inane chitter-chatter.

 

[Colonel Green]

That's such an underwhelming ending to big music.
