Okay, guys, this is it! Since the top three are so close, who do you think will place where?

I think unless someone makes a significant mistake, the top three will stay exactly as is.

Yup, barring an invalidated element or huge fall, I view the places as set.

Yuri and Betina have an incredible style and charisma, it might be over the top for many traditional skating fans, but I love everything about their programs. They took the remix from the fifty shades of grey OST (Beyoncé - crazy in love), again, it is a very uncommon type of music for figure skating fans, huge distortion and reverb in the remix, but I really enjoy the groove.

It is a bit of a shame that the venue is so empty, it colors the sound of the music.

I feel like Pavel is trying to be Charlie White...what with the curly blondish shaggy haircut, LOL!

tulosai · Dec 11, 2015

Thse two are pleasant to watch but to me they don't really have their own style yet... it's still a bit generic for me.

I like Loboda/Dorzd's FD more than their SD

Chemistry66 · Dec 11, 2015

I just remembered the FD was on. Wish I could watch/listen, but my headphones aren't working ugh.

Laurelise · Dec 11, 2015

I liked Loboda/Drozd. Although, if Pavel is trying to channel Charlie White (and who wouldn't?), he needs to look at some of White's tailcoats, which generally moved much better than his did. Alla's dress moved beautifully, though--the cut and fabric allow it to spin out but fall and drape quickly.

So, should I watch L/D? I thought their SD was cute but kind of meh and a bit messy...

Ekm · Dec 11, 2015

I think I said part of this yesterday, L/D are certainly good technical skaters, but they're just so basic. They need a change in their packaging, their programs are dull, the costumes are bland, the music isn't interesting.

And now to the seniors portion of the JGPF FD :biggrin:

Bumdid · Dec 11, 2015

Oh wow. I like the Parsons FD so far despite the slight wobble on the twizzle

One of the contestants on the X Factor did this version of "Crazy in Love" a few weeks ago (it was "re-inventions" week), and I thought it was awful!

But, this recording is much better! Who is it singing?

And just as I write that, they mess the song up for the highlights!

That said, nothing can beat the original Beyonce version! That song brings back so many good memories...

The vocal is still from Beyoncé

, it is just pitched down a lot, some more effects added.

Giselle · Dec 11, 2015

Liked thair FD last year better because Giselle is my favourite ballet. This wasn't as interesting.

coldblueeyes · Dec 11, 2015

I think the judges were a bit wild on the scores yesterday, because so far all teams are scoring less than their SBs.

tulosai · Dec 11, 2015

I actually find it extraordinary that, as siblings, the Parsons have managed to make a tango work as well as they have.

Ekm · Dec 11, 2015

The Parsons' fd is so much more interesting than their short.

Laurelise · Dec 11, 2015

I hope that twizzle error didn't cost the Parsons the silver medal. They may not be the most exciting team (then again, neither are Loboda/Drozd), but they have such great matching leg lines, and they're so elegant.

WeakAnkles · Dec 11, 2015

Looks like the Parsons will drop.
