This is probably going to come across nastier than it's meant to be, but for years now there have been details in almost every how to watch/event thread on how to just download Opera, turn the VPN on, and watch that way if things are failing or if the YouTube feed is preferred because of a lack of Peacock or whatever.

If you're on a computer, it takes less than 15 seconds to do this.

Mark relaying some comments from the Ice Dance Technical Committee about why they chose '80s theme, and while I think it's cool they wanted something without strong gender roles, I'm putting it record that speaking as a non-gender conforming, non-binary queer, I STILL WANT A WALTZ.

this just further proves the don't understand what the issues really are like stop creating gendered roles in skating and give them a waltz you can do both!

 

[MacMadame]

We've missed the first skater. I want my money back, Peacock!

I was so glad they got a couple of green blobs at the end, it looked pretty grim for most of it with the red and grey. I know it wasn’t great but they looked the part and it was enjoyable enough….

 

[Finnice]

Free weekend. A glass of G&T on the table. Tasteless 80's RDs hours and hours...
I am so happy!

 

[Wyliefan]

Apparently we're also going to miss the second.

I'm sure there will be questions. I'm just hoping someone gives a heads up when the 'Cock has gone live so that I can switch over and stream to the TV. I can't do that with my cheap free VPN that I've got on my laptop.

 

[Sally1214]

I'm singing along already. Love the RD music this year. The '80s songs are

 

[Rukia]

Relax makes me think of zoolander lol

one hundred percent this!!!

The same thing happened at US Nationals W SPs…we missed a couple of skaters…so I’m hoping that they’ll get us in soon.

 

[Wyliefan]

Peacock at last!

 

[Rukia]

Peacock is on now and tonia k is anti counters it's already chaos here

 

[Frau Muller]

IN!

 

[tony]

Peacock is on.

 

[Amy L]

The `cock just crowed

 

[miffy]

It’s amazing how much more enjoyable ice dance is (for me anyway) when they skate to 80s!

 

[my little pony]

maybe this was why they felt so strongly about checking out the nanny

I paid good money to Peacock so I could watch RD on the Large Screen TV and read FSU on my laptop. I don't want to watch on my tiny laptop screen and I don't think it's unreasonable to be pissed that I'm not getting what I paid for.

 

[CassAgain]

Yay for the crowing cock.

 

[Karen-W]

And Peacock just went live for the last 30 seconds of Oliver/Bojanowski. Really capable team over there, NBC.

 

[Rukia]

I would like it to be noted that I love counters lol idk my body just likes being contrary

 

[MacMadame]

Yes, even the worst skaters are fun to watch when the music is good.

 

[airgelaal]

Final countdown.
indeed!

 

[Belsornia]

Oliver/Bojanowski noticeably more powerful and sure-footed than Jakucs/Galli, even in borrowed skates. Some levels issues, but all green blobs compared to none for J/G.

A good skate, and some nice flow, and speed. Not the quality of turns, or edges. This program could have been done to any music, and did not reflect the theme.

54.19 = 1st Place
