Top 5 Challenge! Short Dances!

Tessa and Scott - Prince Medley

This program is simply magnificent. The packaging is on point. Gotta give credit to Marie-France and Patrice for that! I love the way every move goes along with the music perfectly. The costumes look fantastic. I love the details in Tessa's one-piece. I like how suave Scott is the whole way through. The subtle gestures here and there really help in shaping the feel of the program. The unity between them is just amazing. Two bodies truly moving as one. The quality of this program shows how experienced they are as skaters and as performers. The world record they earned is a testament to that. What a comeback!

Kaitlyn and Andrew - Michael Jackson Medley

I love this program. It definitely had a striking first impression. Great choreography. It's cool. It's hip. It's smooth. I love the vibe and I love how much they get into it. The ending is a knockout. The costumes are so on point. Kaitlyn looks gorgeous. Overall, a killer choice for Kaitlyn and Andrew. This program definitely suits them.

Alexandra and Ivan - At Last, Bills

This young team is slowly but surely becoming one of my favorite ice dance teams. I love the modern, youthful energy they bring to the table. It's so nice to see a Russian team do hip hop. Such a breath of fresh air. Great choreography. Great chemistry. I love that they really get into the zone before they perform. Although I believe that this team is one of the most improved this season, I still think they need to build on their basics a little bit more. Thorough polishing would get them to the next level and with good coaching, I believe they can go far.

Isabella and Ilia - Real Life, Can't Feel My Face

This is the first season they've captured my attention. This program is pretty cool. The choreography is good. I love the music choice and I love the staccato movements that go along very well with it in the beginning. The costumes are cool. Isabella really knows how to works her cat suit. I love the mysterious vibe of this program. Politics may have gotten them that fourth place finish at Euros earlier this year, but there's no denying that this program is pretty cool, overall.

Madison and Zach - Evolution of Blues and Hip Hop

I have to admit, I was not a fan of this program in the beginning. Just like many of the viewers' opinion, I thought the music was too choppy and the program was too messy. When I was watching Trophee De France earlier in the season, where Ilinykh and Zhiganshin beat them in the short, I honestly thought that they should just scrap this SD and start over. I initially thought that this program was holding them back, but believe it or not, it actually grew on me as time passed by. When they revised it in GPF, I was like alright, this is better, much cleaner. I found myself enjoying it more and more, as the season progressed. They really sold it. I'm so proud of them for not giving up on this program. It really paid off in the end. They EARNED that small medal at Worlds. True pros, without a doubt.
