#and since we are pretending TS's MR doesn't exist I won't mention how they legit placed elements in the same parts of the music like TS did

If you hadn’t ever seen VM’s MR, what would your opinions be on Eteri’s daughter’s MR? Also are they considered objectively good skaters and performers?
Macaroni, feel free to join in as well!
My dislike for other people MR doesn't stem for the most part from my love for TS's MR.
One of the things that always stuck with me from what Sandra Bezic said about Tessa and Scott's Moulin Rouge is that they couldn't have done it in 2010 and she was right. They needed the maturity and sophistication to really own it and it's a big reason of what made it so effective. With Team nepotism #2 and many others who aim to try and do a MR, the interpretation just simply isn't there. Sure they will do the "on surface" type of interpretation where they'll try to be sexy and aversive to one another at parts and loving in other parts but it's always fake and comes across like teens doing a school play. So the interpretation comes across as inauthentic which makes it lack effectiveness. But even more than that team nepotism #2 has bad packaging, the role of the male partner is completely forgettable, I legit can't even remember what he is wearing or what choreography he is doing, the choreography is basic and uninspired and includes tons of two foot skating. I can go on but I think we covered enough issues tbh. 
@macaroni-rascal as always feel free to add.
ETA: I also forgot to mention that i find it hilarious that they basically do P/C’s curve lift (P/C do it in the RD and the FD), because it makes sense that a team in their first season as seniors will do the same as P/C.
