t/v tango is objectively one of the better fds of the season in that it's memorable and cunty and works for them, but it's also such a direct comparison to older ice dance (pre-2022) that it just makes me sad. the only top team tango fd we've had in the entire quad and it has maybe fifteen seconds of tango/foxtrot hold combined and the dancers directly performing to the audience instead of to each other. judges and fans are eating it up and i get it and the current state of ice dance is obviously not t/v's fault, but like... what are we doing here man

#classic 'if i knew less about ice dance id like this more' moment #it's such a shame because they are so refined and have such strong maintained tango character #but they're just not dancing With each other. whyyyyy #i can share my off-the-top-of-my-head list of good tangos if anyone wants #and its like. some of these teams have shitty holds or poor stage presence or bad ss but even Then theyre compelling #isu killed ballroom in ice dance because t/v are completely capable of doing a spectacular real tango theyre just not motivated to. :(
