Ok. So.
LaLa are amazing, I loved them ever since I saw them the first time being a couple of parrots, and they are still absolutely fabulous. They are very reminiscent of Virtue/Moir, and I'd have them first.
Gilles/Poirier have the most wonderful program in years. I really appreciate them, and they have been the most interesting couple for years (until the last 3 seasons). But they are just not such amazing skaters You can clearly see that between the (great) elements when they just do these heavy choppy crossovers. Not the same speed as others either. I think this should be their last season, unless they want to be overtaken by LaLa next year.
I love Caroline Green and couldn't have cared less for Parsons. But this program was lovely and original. They are probably my second most favorite US team, but I don't see the brilliance I see in...
Of course, Demougeot/Le Mercier. OMG, I'm absolutely in love with Theo, which is not news to anyone, but common! Their knees are so soft, the edges are so strong, they are the only team that doesn't jump when changing edges, it's just such a pure clean skating I really hope the judges recognize the obvious brilliance I am seeing, because it would be a shame if they don't get the recognition they deserve. The program itself is objectively not as good as the top 3, but I can forgive that. Well, yeah, I can forgive Theo anything, really
