[MacMadame]

Btw, since we have Pairs, Dance and Women, I left all those in the BINGO.

Has anyone been watching the background with the tech/video officials or whoever they are always dressed up and in character?

Someone in a Minions outfit just got attacked by a banana, while eating a banana.

 

[MacMadame]

Okay, why is a banana and a minion behind the judge from Japan??

 

[misskarne]

I'm pretty sure that's Data and Replay dressed as a banana and minion.

Also, I'm going to say it again just because:

I aided in pressing to get judge number 8 suspended once upon a time after he copied an entire set of scores throughout a JGP.

Here's a throwback

[MacMadame]

Did it work?

ETA thread title says it did.

 

[tony]

Did it work?

Yup.

Wait that's him? For some reason my brain didn't make the connection.

 

[MacMadame]

We're only in the warm up and we're already getting "artistic" camerawork.

 

[MacMadame]

great quality = real quality

Uhm, we have Men not Women today.

 

[MacMadame]

Uhm, we have Men not Women today.

Would you believe I thought I was typing that?? (Yes, I'm already tired in spite of a nap.)

 

[leilaofpaper]

well the illusion fabric doesn’t match their skin tone but at least they match each other?

 

[Karen-W]

Is it too much to ask the magical US figure skating genie to grant me two wishes for the same pairs woman? I'd really like Alisa to get US citizenship and one reliable, rotated triple jump before Milano.

 

[MacMadame]

Chris, that SBS was slightly off the entire time.

 

[MacMadame]

It matches well enough in a lot of the camera shots.

 

[Karen-W]

LOL - listen, we should just be grateful that EfiMit are here & we can mark off "illusion/tights weird color" right from the off.

 

[MacMadame]

Is that finger gesture from Alisa, a shoutout? It seems like it.

 

[Karen-W]

I realize that Les Kovs are eminently forgettable for me, but... these are the same costumes they debuted at Worlds, right?

Oh, yeah... There's the lime green sparkly tramp stamp on her skirt.

But, hey, cutouts!

 

[MacMadame]

"got it all wrong"

 

[tony]

It's still fascinating that they are married. They don't skate together even for one second.

 

[MacMadame]

who is Maxime Rodriguez and where did he find this godawful music??

 

[Karen-W]

"got it all wrong"

are we counting this awful "Toxic" cover as sad/emo girl cover? I feel like we've already adjudicated this question at least once this season, but like I said, Les Kovs are eminently forgettable for me.

 

[MacMadame]

But, hey, cutouts!

barely.

I don't remember. It was kind of loud to be an emo sad/ girl cover IMO. I'm sure we'll get a real one soon.

 

[MacMadame]

Is Summertime an obvious warhorse? It's no Carmen but we do hear it a lot.

 

[MacMadame]

I just noticed the triangle on her butt. That's a choice. But it was rather neon so there's that.

 

[Karen-W]

France giving back all those points that Adam picked up for them yesterday...

this version of Summertime is NOT a warhorse and should be banned from all athletic competitions in any sports forever.
