Not quite a review, just results and a few photos:

I'll have more photos and a full review later. Need to travel home, first!

Brian Boitano got a standing ovation from the other skaters, who were all watching, after his final performance. You can see a photo of that in the above link.

Wow, Elvis did a non-rock number? I can't remember seeing one of those for decades. That alone will be worth tuning in for. ;)

Thanks for the link and info. Sadly, BB says this is his last year to do Ice Wars. :cry:

Ice Wars airs on CBS Dec. 10, 2005 from 8-10PM EST (which unfortunately conflicts with TSN's broadcast of the only other pro competition in existence right now, World Team Challenge. The second part of that competition is airing 7-9PM EST on TSN on Dec. 10 - 1st part is 1-3PM EST same day).

Here are my photos:

Enjoy!

And yeah..I knew it was Brian's last year. I'm sad to hear it, but he did go out in style!

What happened to the "Thanksgiving Day" tradition of showing Ice Wars? :evil: I was looking forward to that!
Man that stinks!

Dude, CBS barely renewed Ice Wars at all. They probably thought they could get better ratings for other programming over Thanksgiving. I'm just thankful they're airing Ice Wars at all!

Besides, it hasn't aired over Thanksgiving in a couple years now.

IIRC, TSN did a repeat broadcast of the WTC last year, so the conflict might not be a problem. (And for those of us in the Pacific time zone, there's no overlap.)
