what a comeback for Caroline, narrowly missed the bronze when everyone's writing her off.

I would have put Caroline 3rd. Wish Alissa had repeated -

Good for Ashley Wagner. Is it me or did every single skater seemed to have popped a jump or flat out fall? I was disappointed I saw that so much.

I know a guy skating there at junior and he got silver. Go Timothy!!!!

I loved watching Agnes skate. I've never really thought a lot about skaters I haven't met or seen in person, but I was very impressed by her skating.

I thought you meant AgnesNitt!

I managed to see everything but the Pairs -

LOVED Ashley Wagner's long program - I thought it was a masterpiece! (Of course meeting her last summer in Portland didn't hurt, either - she used to train here in the early days...) -

Jeremy was superb.

LOVED the dancers - very classy.

I was so tired on Saturday night, that I fell asleep before Agnes skated, so I didn't see her performance. Glad for Ashley and I hope she and Alyssa can get on the podium at Worlds.

I was glad to see a dish on the dresses. http://nickverrreos.blogspot.com/ I know it's totally catty but thought the same about the white dress....

Hmmm...I rarely agree with fashionistas, but I'm with him on Alyssa and Rachael's freeskate dresses. I thought Alyssa's was a little too like honeymoon clothing, but I was glad to see Rachael in a different style than the bare-shoulders look - she looked lovely.

I missed the men's coverage, so I've been YouTubing for bits and pieces. Jeremy Abbott deserved that win.

Ugh, yeah, the white dress.... she seriously looked like she was wearing a see-through slip over a pair of white panties, and Alyssa is one of my favorite skaters so it kind of hurts me to say that... but it definitely seemed out of place.. if it had all been white white that might have been different, but the semi-sheer look just doesn't work. I loved the purple one she had for her LP through the grand prix series and I don't know why she changed it.

I honestly loved Rachael's LP dress and I don't know why she hasn't been wearing dresses like that all along.. it really suited her, and for once she looked great.

It was the Maia Usova negligee' look all over again.

This might sound crazy, but I saw the white dress and I thought she might be skating to Star Wars music, as it reminded me of Princess Leia!
