Sat. 3:00 Pairs Free and Dance Free

Sat. 8:00 Ladies Free

Sun. 4:00 Mens Free

Sat., Jan. 30th 4:00 Exhibition

All on NBC.

Enjoy!

I'll be watching as much as I can!

Great. I hope you and shiremom enjoy it. The ice dancers this afternoon were stunning. I'm curious to see if 17-year-old Paulina Edwards beats Tracy Gold and Ashley Wagner tonight. Her short program was amazing.

I watched and enjoyed the Ladies' Long Programs last night. I won't say more in case you haven't seen it yet. Hoping to watch as much of the Men's as possible, but I might not be home much today.

Some of the outfits (including the Men's) are so gorgeous this year!

I've seen it all now except the exhibition which is on Sat., Jan. 30. I agree that the costumes are gorgeous, but the women's sure have become very skimpy.

I liked that Tara and Johnny did so much explaining about the scoring. It's very helpful. I was very happy for Gracie, but I thought for sure Polina was going to win.

I thought the quad jumps were amazing, but I like the ice dancing best. It's so beautiful and not just about how many jumps the skaters can fit into a routine.

I didn't get to see the Men's yesterday, but look forward to the exhibitions. I was also sure Polina was going to win, but Gracie pulled out a spectacular long program. The Worlds in March should be wonderful to watch!

See the entry I just did tonight. Did you see the Exhibition yesterday? Poor Nathan. I felt so bad for him.

I didn't get to see the Exhibitions, sadly, but I'll check out your new post as soon as I can. :)
