Really happy for Jeremy having such a good skate (finallyyy)! I hope there's more where that came from.

I'm crying! SO happy for Jeremy! He looked so relieved and joyful! and he was really performing with joy and serenity that last minute. Got to wipe away my tears!

Beautiful performance from Abbott. Landed most of his jumps. Composed, purposeful movement.

The choreography seems watered down since last season, unfortunately.

And Jeremy finally woke up. It's amazing to see how his technical score still was only marginally higher than Max's even though all the elements were executed at such a higher level.

That was a gorgeous skate. Too bad he missed the opening quad, but this program looked like he actually trained it. I was taken to another place. Bravo.

158+ He seems disappointed, but I think that's the best score we've seen from him in a long time.

Me too! He transports me. I think his score should have been much higher- all elements executed at such a higher level.

ISU has really went overboard with the value of quads, IMO.

Jeremy just did that. He just did that. Omg. I cried. I fist pumped. That was amazing. I am so happy.

But he was underscored.

I always find this program lovely. I now associate exogenesis with this program and HBO's 24/7 Penguins vs. Capitals :laugh:

He was very underscored in my opinion. I'm interested to see the protocol to understand why. That program and that score is a moment when the IJS drives me nuts. But I'll wait till I see the protocol.

He did have a few small errors. 158+ is quite good with no quad. For perspective Max got 162+ at Skate America with a quad, 3A-3T and 3Z-1L-3S in the back end.

Jeremy, sadly, is also notorious for losing levels on his spins, so that might be a possibility as well.

:) I think the spell worked.

Sweetskates!!! so glad you are here! Are you a little teary like I am? Seeing his face in the last minute of the program was what brought on the tears- he looked so happy!
and did you hear Dungeon say "monkey off the back" when he came off the ice?!
