they had plenty of time to at least come out with 1 new program vs repeating two programs
They did come up with two new programs, right? And neither of them worked well enough, after they had come off of an illness and rehab-shortened competitive season. Or, they weren't comfortable enough with the choreo. Originally, they had a fp by Chris Dean, right? Or were they always planning to keep the Ghost fp?
ETA:
Listening to Alexa & Chris on recent IceTalk is revealing. They basically had 'family matters' to take care of in the first part of the off-season (Alexa said). So they didn't start getting their new music and choreo till July. And obviously neither new program was completely comfortable for them. That's a short timeframe for new programs for the Olympics season, especially since both programs from last season were not able to be fully explored. I don't see any problem with them bringing both programs back. Alexa sounds happy and grounded, and very grateful for all she's learned in the last year and a half.
Fun broadcast with Alexa doing most of the talking, unsurprisingly (although Chris chipped in more toward the end). They discuss the process of developing the quad-twist and where they are with it now. Plus a funny anecdote involving a former press conference with James/Cipres and Tat/Max. http://web.icenetwork.com/fans/icetalk
It's funny when they explain how they decided to go back to Come What May. They didn't go straight back to it. And the process of creating something with Rohene in the first place was not smooth, so there were several sps they considered using prior to going back to Come What May.
