If Tara Lipinski & Johnny Weir Commentated Our Favorite TV Show Moments, It'd Go Like This
It won't be long before Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir get their own primetime figure skating show. Their commentary throughout the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics has been on point. Their banter is equal parts shade throwing and technical knowledge.
Figure skating fans can't get enough of the pro athletes turned TV personas, and quite frankly, neither can we. Both have enough of their own Olympic experience under their belt that they really, really know what they're talking about. And they're also chock full of sass and one-liners. It makes us wonder what was figure skating even like before we had them to narrate.
We're so in love with the Lipinksi/Weir commentary that we decided it needed to spread its wings beyond the Olympics. We took real Lipinksi/Weir quotes and paired them with famous moments from you favorite TV shows. It's a mash-up you never knew you needed... until now.
