DILEMMA ON ICE!

Monday, February 13, 2006

8PM FOX
Skating With Celebrities: The three remaining celebrities and their professional partners compete before judges to avoid elimination.

8PM NBC
XX Olympic Winter Games: From Turin, Italy. Figure skating: pairs free skate, final.

Hmmm... a dilemma.

On the one hand, my man Bruce Jenner has more charisma in his trademark two waltz jumps than Maxim Marinin has doing more or less anything.

On the other hand, Jillian Barbieri and her neverending groin saga is rather lame compared to Marcy Hinzmann's torn ACL and Rena Inoue's lung cancer.

Then again, Kristy Swanson and Lloyd Eisler are pretty equal with Pang and Tong and Zhang and Zhang when it comes to the belief that hefting the girl higher and flinging her farther will cover up any deficiencies in musicality, finesse, and/or plain, old basic skating skills.

So what to do, what to do?

Tune in tomorrow to learn how I solved the mystery of: Two Skating Shows, One TV!
