I mean - I remember the 1988 olympics because I HATED Katerina Witt because I LOVED Debbie Thomas!!! The funny thing now is that if Katerina is on a skating show, I love her, because I can now accept her as a member of the "old school"

My favorite ice skater would have to be a tie between Scott Hamlton and Brian Boitano (whom still has flowy shirts refered to as Brian Boitano shirts in this household, despite the fact that he himself probably hasn't worn one in 10 years)

I liked Kristi Yamaguchi and Michelle Kwan at their perspective times, but... I don't know - they don't excite me much anymore... (and I did like some of the guys during their times, but not enough to even remember names)

what I really didn't like, was I never could like Tara Lipinski - I think it was her makeup - anyway she drove me up the wall - and the most recent girl - she's ok too, but just nothing there to make me like her...

so I don't tend to watch the regular competition figure skating anymore... if its on I might a little, but...

Give me a skating special with Scott, Brian, Paul Wylie, Katerina Witt, and I'd even add Katia (since she did some solo pro stuff after her husband died)

Oh, and while I do like ice dancing, I don't think it was ever on enough in my youth for me to remember names... same way with doubles figure skating - I do remember when Kristi Yamaguchi was still doing doubles and single
