Says something about my expansive view of eye candy erm I mean artistryIt's easy to admire the taste when the taste is all 31 baskin and robbins flavours plus a few more. All I want to know is sugar, waffle or regular cone?

Keep in mind that the BV is higher here due to the use of a Partial step sequence instead of a second pattern dance (the +GOE scale of values for a pattern is also lower). So really 79 here is probably like a 77 or 76 back in 2014.
It's not a perfect comparison.
I understand that and given that fact, judging should have been adjusted accordingly. I admire V/M and this performance and they clearly bested P/C but this scoring practice is ridiculous.
Dog just demanded his third dinner. He's confused by me being up so late. Asian events when you are in EDT suck (for us, not those in Asian time who have to put up with it during SA and SC)
I wish my dog could have 3AM weekend play dates with your dog while we watch Asian competitions and post on GoldenSkate.
Are you kidding........I need details..
me too apparently LOL
so would I. Except Eli does not play well with others. He's a bully who needs to dominate every dog he meets. It's an issue.
While V/M's was clearly the best in the group, I think, they were over-scored. The calibre of D/W's Olympic SD is still unmatched. Watch and compare _ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61wv8v7cFLk and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_ndxb3VTQ0

Gabby makes a mis-step about halfway through the non-touch step. I'm not sure how much it affects the levels, but it was a glaring error even to a relatively ice dance novice like me.
That isn't a misstep- that's part of the choreography. Watch the SD from French trophy and you'll see it there as well.
This is so unfair! Yes v/m were better but not 4 points better! The tech judges just killed the competion. The French didn't make mistake and they are 4 points behind!!!
Step sequence mistakes/imperfections in ice dancing are not always readily visible. It may be a barely noticeable stumble, not even visible from all angles, or even just an imperfect edge - even less apparent.The French didn't make mistake and they are 4 points behind!!!
I think that rather Papadakis/Cizeron and Lauzon/Dubreuil/Haguenauer will correct this, not technical panels. I don't see why this particular technical panel should have been biased towards P/C and V/M. It is likely that Gabriella and Guillaume did indeed have some small imperfections in their partial step sequence which were simply unvisible (or practically invisible) to a non-expert eye which very often happens in ice dancing.Totally agree ... but season is long and other panel will correct this
Well they made errors somewhere then... I have no clue.
