2012 SA Meryl Davis Charlie White FD (NBC)

[@firstofall21]

weird at ppl saying DW got no connection, cos i feel chemistry more on DW than VM and i just got into this whole Ice Dance recently (prefer the ice skating pair more usually), so I watched the whole thing with DW - VW and DW caught me more

[@jodij6280]

It's interesting to watch the early version, knowing what the later version is. Love them!

[@MsDottie09]

Whatever Meryl and Charlie do is just priceless. There might be some changes that Marina will make but I think their connection is in the eye of the beholder. And I as a beholder think that they connect very well!!!!

[@teddyjo26]

Thank you for uploading the NBC coverage! The beginning choreography is so beautiful.

[@debraharper5449]

Such a lovely program . The outfits are appropriate for the music. Meryl and Charlie are so beautiful

[@annieleonhart6693]

5:13 IDK BUT THIS IS ACTUALLY SO CUTE AND SHOWS HOW MUCH ACTUALLY CHARLIE CARED ABOUT MERYL

[@intldawn]

Just when I think they can't outdo themselves, they keep managing to come up with fabulous programs. This was amazing.

[@jmw939]

I love that Meryl is always in character.

[@NagaNora1997]

These two are amazing. I also wasn't expecting a Japanese card playing game (Vanguard) to be advertised in between Smucker's and AT&T at 1:32 . That is something I don't see very often.

[@nightswimmer99]

NagaNora1997 Japan is the largest hub of skating fandom and has been for years now. So it would surprise me to not see ads marketing to Japanese fans at any venue around the world.

[@adamarejones3355]

Odd as it sounds, this brings tears. I'm dreading the day if and when they retire.

[@larahartley7607]

i like this version better than what it evolved into. the step sequence in the middle was much more interesting than at world's 2013. still gorgeous and that spin with her arms out is so moving, simple but joyous.

[@LORNANGEL]

Love this... and love the simple dress

[@zinebelbou1059]

I’m in love with this ❤️

[@AlexisRoark]

This is my FAVORITE version of this program. I know it was new but I just wish she hadn't taken so much out. SIGH

[@AlokyaPerera]

Agreed, but still a billion times better than previous seasons. I am completely confident that that will improve over the course of this season. I can't wait for what they will bring next year - it will be wonderfully choreographed, technically sound, and gorgeous to watch because they will fully connect to each other by then.

[@MRiitta]

I simply love them:))

[@starsmoon0216]

I wonder what the judges gave them. I think the version they skated at the Worlds was better. The music track was better also, but this was still beautiful. There are always little glitches when a program is first debuted.

[@alwilliam3379]

Regardless of what they do and all their hardwork, there are some that will always critcize D&W. Nobody's perfect! At least they don't claim themselves as such. Not like somebody who is full of himself telling everybody they're the most artistic ice dancers ever! If they loose, always whine about something. D&W Tango 2 seasons ago was criticized too for "lack of connection/passion", yet, they made history for winning the World's title. Why can't we just enjoy watching their program?

[@robertmorris17]

A different interpretation, but no less spectacular and beautiful as the great Anisina and Peizerat.

[@XxTastycakesxX1]

When they did this for 2013 prudential it was much more raw and different and more well performed. They changed steps and made it theirs

[@annieleonhart6693]

I love my parents :)

[@nolaughingmatter]

I hope this wins Worlds 2013. They should have won last year as well. If they don't win next year, then there is no justice, as Virtue and Moir's programs are weak.

[@scoutz0rs]

I don't really understand why people say that have no connection. There's no real difference between them and any of the other top dance teams in terms of relationship on the ice and acting ability. I mean, are they supposed to be groping each other or almost-kissing in order to have a connection? I don't see Nathalie and Fabian doing that. Tessa and Scott are fabulous actors, and Nelli and Alexander are extremely theatrical, but they're exceptions.

[@pringleswithhair]

any1 know what the music played at 2:28 is called?

[@starsmoon0216]

I see binkerrrr is putting her snide remarks on this DW page as well. Its really pathetic how nasty she is.

[@jodij6280]

Doesn't surprise me. She's a V/M fan(atic), isn't she?

[@bluebeachboy1]

Oh my, snap!

[@단단-d7s]

5:10

[@binkerrrrr]

charlie is suppose to be Esmeralda right?

[@tokata1100]

hahaha this is really good ;)))

[@sk8lvrnc]

why do you keep repeating the same opinion? I think we can all read it the first time. Repeating it doesn't make it true.

[@Tayannenlg]

you are welcome :)

[@ellaaa143]

I love the music and I think this program has the potential to be amazing but their chemistry just isn't doing it for me. I think these two might benefit from taking some acting classes to help with their connection.

[@philipsumampong3094]

lol.... i love this comment:)

[@pringleswithhair]

was disappointed when i heard it :P

[@MsDeepGirl]

Well, I like Davis/White. BUT I LOVE!!!! Virtue/Moir They're just Perfect. They have romance, grace, magnificent, perfection & Davis/White just have perfection.. well and grace, but just that. And I respect your opinion but I Hope you don't say that about Virtue& Moir. Just accept their greatly way to skate.

[@Schloss3868]

Really? Romance off the ice. You must be kidding. How is that part of ice dancing? You've lost your balance.

[@philipsumampong3094]

i really love this team.... but unfortunately they have come as second fiddle to virtue and moir even in their junior years.... i love how fast this team is.... Theres so many good things to say about this team.... i think the connection issue keeps coming back because i think because people can see that charlie will never be attracted to meryl:( unlike virtue and moir.... you want them to date each other and have a romance on and off ice..... theres no heat and lust between meryl and charlie.

[@bluebeachboy1]

D/W are technically sound but there's no connection between the two skaters.

[@bluebeachboy1]

Not a lot of connection to each other...still.

[@tokata1100]

boooo

[@QueenVelveeta]

boring music

[@debraharper5449]

Such a lovely program . The outfits are appropriate for the music. Meryl and Charlie are so beautiful
