I LOVE this program and it's only getting better. It really shows how well they can dance, sigh! I wish I lived in Canada, I'd be shelling out the big bucks to sit right in front. I could watch them all day.
Thanks so much for posting. Did you notice they took out the spin (Tessa once said it was her least favorite element in an interview, so I guess that's why, lol).
And - I agree - anyone who does MR after this is asking for a comparison they probably don't really want to make.
I don't think skaters see it that way. If they did, they would music that iconic programs had been skated to.
The fact that T/D's Bolero is iconic hasn't stopped skaters from continuing to use the music. Ditto Kat Witt's Carmen - Carmen being the most over-used piece of music (in a contest with POTP).
A more recent example is S/H Turandot. I was shocked that they chose that music, given that their coach and partner had skated such a masterpiece program to it. But they obviously felt that could bring something different to the music. And/or, they may have wanted to pay tribute to their coach by skating to the music that galvanized the process of he and his partner becoming legends in the sport.
I think young teams will probably still use it, more in the trying to emulate way, but top teams will want to avoid it.Singles skaters will definitely use it again and soon at that, but I really wouldn’t be surprised if ice dance teams gave it a wide berth for a long, long time. Next year Roxanne would probably have been the Despacito of the Tango Romantica but I can’t see any coach signing off on the comparison right now.

How come they introduced V&M as 3-time World Champion (beginning of Rock my World) instead of 2 time Olympic Gold Medalists? I don't get it.

Just back from the show and it was SO awesome.
The other number was set in a club and featured Tessa and Scott, Andrew and Kaitlyn, and Meghan and Eric. The song they skated/danced to was Ed Sheeran "Shape of You."
That was one of the biggest mind messes ever as we are so used to seeing P/C skate to that song.
Ditto. When I am sad, I have to remind myself that we were lucky to have them back for 2 seasons and 4 spectacular programs that we can watch forever and everhttp://mysticseasons.tumblr.com/post/173473270584/photo-josee-tremblay
Perfectly matching lines, fully extended knees and pointed toes from the both of them even in a show setting. The dance technique is impeccable. Few other teams bother with or are capable of that level of detail. I’m going to miss them so much from the competitive scene.
Let's not forget that their wonderful dance to Shape of You on the floor around this time last year

Where did you saw Zach said this about TS? I only saw in his story he talked about amazing Jeff Buttle.Zach Donohue also went and was saying how amazing it the show and the crowd was on his IG stories. He was especially impressed by Tessa and Scott and Jeff Buttle. After the show he picked Tessa and Scott's Moulin Rouge as his favourite program.
Actually it appears that Zach went with Olivia Smart, Tim Koleto, and Misato Komatsubara. And they all met up with Sam afterwards. Marie-France and Patrice were there too.
Sam did an IG live and then Zach did one too, where they talked about it!Where did you saw Zach said this about TS? I only saw in his story he talked about amazing Jeff Buttle.
Another cute thing: on one of Tessa's recent instagram pics (with her in a white robe promoting Starbucks) she was answering lots of fan comments. One person asked her whether she and Scott ever used fake names at Starbucks. She answered that for a while they were Kate and Joe (her mom and his dad) and that they also used Meryl and Charlie.
