[@LC-ig2jm]

1. Medvedeva is untouchable, 2. Chen, 3. Mihara.

[@mikeokubo7061]

Go Anna!!

[@lynncoop4507]

I also went with Ted's pick of: Sui/Han, Tarasova/Morozov and Massot/Savchenko. I'm rooting for James and Cipre to finish in the top 5. :)

[@TheBladeBoys]

James/Cipres killed it at Euros, so they have a shot at top 5 for sure!

[@annasuntraveledworld]

Is the end missing? It cuts off in the middle of a word...

[@TheBladeBoys]

Yup, the end cut off unfortunately, but we have re-uploaded a full version of our pairs commentary, here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jnPbg5yIorqhp7s Thank you for watching! :)

there is no doubt that medvedeva will be champion again. And I think kostner and pogorilaya will be again on the podium just like European Championship. Costner is very focused and pogorilaya is mostly shaky so silver will go to carolina and the bronze for anna. I really want osmond to take a medal but she cant be consistent in her long program. And I am sure that higuchi and mihara from japan will take attention with their perfect jumps but their pcs cant be enough for a medal. still hope for them for in top 5. And other top 10 candidates are daleman, sotskova, wagner, osmond and maybe li zijun. Thé canadian quota for 2018 olympics will increase up to 3 and the usa quota will down to 2, I think.

[@shenzhao1154]

And for pairs my biggest favourite is sui han. I hope they will be champions after a few days. And other real candidates for podium are savchenko massot and tarasova morozov. savchenko massot has the highest artistry in this season but I cant predict how many mistakes will they make on throws. sui han and savchenko massot will be in top 2 I think. And the bronze for tarasova morozov. at grand prix final and European they were so lucky. They have a big momentum but this time the german and Chinese team will be ready to challenge. Duhamel-radford arent a real candidate for 2017 worlds podium for me. their pcs decreased throughout the season and they are not consistent like stolbova-klimov. And I always think that stolbova-klimov have never been a number 1 team in the world. They shined suddenly at 2014 olympics in their home and everybody knows that how passed the 2014 olympics for the russian skaters and then they couldn't skate really good except 2015 grand prix final. I think stolbova-klimov belong to the group of 'the almost teams ' . And hao zhang and his New partner are also my second favourite team. their costumes, their musics choreographies are speechless. hope for top 5. Thé french team also very surprised for everybody but they cant take a medal. still their programs are wonderful. Thé medals arent so important for me anymore but my predictions are these. I really love watching figure skating especially pairs and this competition will be so special.

[@alexandriacollis]

Haha..Im sorry but Karen Chen saved the US! Yaassssss girl!

[@ManuelPabloArnao]

Your analysis is soo off base. Ashley did not have a good season- What are you talking about?!?!

[@TheBladeBoys]

Well, she did win Skate America, and skated to silver at Nationals, and is going to Worlds. It's not an amazing season (for her), but it hasn't been a complete disaster either. Hope that clarifies. :)

[@ManuelPabloArnao]

She's skated 3 competitions all season long, only 2 of those being international events, she didn't make the Grand Prix final, and her scores for both the short and long programs have been nowhere near the top scores for women this season. She'll be lucky to be finish in the top 5. It's going to be Medvedeva, Kostner and Pogorilaya.

[@rostburov1118]

Well Medvedeva gues was right - otherwise just gay susies

[@rostburov1118]

gay blah Balah Balh for NOTHING!
