I had a chance to finally see the "top" teams. I think P C have a certain je ne sais quoi however, I do feel Gabby is sufficiently behind Guillaume. To those who have hated or picked on say Chan Guillaume is way, way over rated. I think it is disgusting and distasteful to focus on his looks, body, chest hair or whatever. He definitely has a dance body and you can see that but it doesn't work unless his partner can match the line and style. And this is ICE dancing not just ballet dancing. Because of the glaring difference in skating skills I think this team which perhaps does have more it factor or magic needs to be penalized in its score or rather marked fairly and not given such high scores. But they still with the errors seem to be the lead team or equal to V and M as noted by the pcs where if the judges wanted to they could up V and M's scores or lower PC.
V and M well I don't love their FD especially but I give them credit for not playing it safe and doing something different. I realize that doesn't mean you should score higher. I agree that the height factor is a bit of challenge for lifts and such. I admire how competitive they are despite not having the size differnece. As for Scott and his personality I love his honestly.
The anti Canada for lack of words position. Coincident or not I am fed up whether it is anti Canadian or just a fluke that Canadian skaters are picked on - Chan, Duhamel and Radford, V and M, Gabby, Osmond et al. They don't deserve it. And I am not anti Mao, Hanyu, Yuna, P/C and all but Ijust don't think these skaters should be criticized so harshly or claims of overmarked. BEcause if that is the case Hanyu et al should at the very least deserve the same criticque or comments. Though in part the apparent bias or hatred might be due to how loud various posters yell and scream for lack of words.
I kind of feel sorry for S and K and I and Z. I really hoped for a happier outcome for them but it doesn't look great.
