I guess so.

I'm thinking it'll be Seimei vs R&J 1.0 aka grown up Yuzu vs baby Yuzu...

Still don't know how you survived that.

Some of those match-ups are pure EVIL! How the heck am I supposed to pick!?

Yes but guess what? He's already practicing it anyway... which means that behind closed doors, he's repeatedly jumping it and trying to land it... already. Terror is relative

We might still. It's not like the CBC to waste an interesting story.

You're saying that like it's a bad thing...

I still want to see it! Would be great if CBC could air it somehow

PW vs LGC....just kill me whydontcha... can't ....choose...

I saw a news release of Shoma's comments as released by JSF on a Korean website already. In true Shoma form, he didn't have much to say

I hadn't heard that! Yikes.

The Bizarro thought occurs to me that they might try to do it in lieu of SCI.

This year, in "Beauty Tips from Center Ice", our mysterious blogger reveals that lip-syncing to J-rock is good for the complexion! Stay tuned as he confesses his love for video games! Ya gotta laugh. It's better than crying.

Wild speculation about our boy's next program layout, general sympathy for the state of Brian's hair or lack thereof, making up skits and songs, looking at Yutiful pictures, more wild speculation about costumes, watching bootleg YouTube of FaOI, and assorted merriment. It's going to be difficult this year because the drought will be long, but hey! -> no damaged ankles to worry about this time! Silver lining. Also wild speculation about Nessie & co. Like, it's been ages since he said at ACI he tried quints in harness. Wonder if he's tried to land them out of harness.

Cold and stunning beauty - like the woods in winter on a bluebird day

Stay safe yourself! I hope the virus subsides in Italy quickly, and everywhere else too.

It's pretty simple - they haven't ruled out asking for it to be cancelled, but right now they still think the risk is low enough not to. Stay tuned for more developments, basically.

Oh, you must watch Roman. His spins are literally perfect.

Actually, by scores, it's Roman Sadovsky. Someone posted a link with the data after NHK Cup. Roman tops everybody with his scores on spins.

to expand on this idea: they could offer a bring-a-friend discount for competition tickets. Every time an established figure skating fan brings someone new to figure skating to a competition, give them 25% off the price of their ticket, or something. Or a free seat upgrade.

My cynical side wants to think Zakarian just said that to rile up the fanyus and trick them into participating in the show. If ISU is serious about increasing the audience for figure skating, maybe time for amateur hour is over and they should hire an actual PR firm and develop something useful. "Skating with the Stars" has a fantastic ring to it, and would increase interest in FS without having to harm any competitions. You could even do an audience participation version where people win a chance to skate with their Olympic idols and put together a program with them. Imagine what kind of a reaction a chance to skate with Yuzu would get. He wouldn't even have to be on the ice, they could do it like The Voice and just have him be the coach. Would be so much more entertaining than a red carpet.

The Chinese part of the internet is a mystery to me unfortunately, so I can't help.

Only?

Somewhere in there, there's got to be people who can figure out how to vote for Yuzu early and often.

I have faith that somewhere among the 500,000 or more Chinese fanyus, not to mention the rest of us, there will be enough votes come in to sway the results in Yuzu's favour. However, the part where they have a jury making the final decisions takes away my optimism somewhat.
