They haven't been a couple for a while. He has a Spanish girlfriend I believe.
OK, so a sitcom is out. But how about a miniseries?

Javi’s retirement isn’t a surprise but it really hit me hard :sad21:. Not only is he my favourite skater… I’m the same age as him and usually this age feels like starting. Finishing uni, finding a job, moving out from parents or a dorm, looking for an apartment or a house, starting families, getting invitations to weddings… Whereas for skaters it’s about finishing their career. I know that it’s not the end of the world and even they open a new chapter in their life and I’m also really happy because Javi has had huge success with ROI and can spend more time in Spain with his family...

We saw the same French volunteer girl who posted a lot of videos of Javi and she told also a story about how the buddy pic with Kevin Aymoz during practice came about. Apparently, Kevin is a huge fan but far too shy to ask for a photo himself. His coaches talked with Brian a long time - Brian was reportedly also very impressed with Kevin's SP - in Friday practice and Javi took his time in watching Kevin's FS runthrough. Which I have rarely seen him do in practice sessions which are really all business and serious. Then at the final practice their coaches stood side by side and organized the photo to be taken. There was also reportedly mutual fanboying.
I love how this (potentially sad) thread turned into planning sitcoms and telenovelas and also Javi's fanfest is so comfy and calm. Just like Javi. (iirc there was a thread Javi vs. Yuzuru a few years back and instead of serious or technical discussion it ended up with users planning a wedding )
Btw. the most important video about Javi, ehm, I mean about CATS has been meanwhile translated into English
Javi's greatest accomplishment was the Sinatra Free Skate that won World's.
Hands down, in my opinion, no contest.
That program had style and individuality, real panache. Not just in the musical selection, but in the cool way he interpreted it.
It saved men's figure skating from a headlong slide into lame movie scores and lyrical puff performances. Well, maybe it didn't completely save it - but it at least showed people what was possible.

Pssst, I also prefer Javi's quads over Yuzu's
Right you are! By the way, I've read somewhere that Javi is taking part in two skating shows in the Czech Rep and Slovakia this summer/autumn, but I just can't find the article anymore and google is also not helpful. Do any of you know anything more about that by chance?
