Peggy & Dorothy: A Dateline Olympics Special (2002) (TV)

Special event (via the NBC Dateline crew) broadcast just prior to the 2002 Winter Olympics Closing Ceremonies. Two of the greatest in a long list of American figure skaters. Well done.

Canvas of Ice (1988) (TV)

I like watching all levels of competitive ice skating but this is different. Using helicopter cameras, Brian and crew show ice skating in the outdoors. Skating over a LARGE expanse of open ice is awesome to watch.



Originally shown during the Christmas season, there are lots of young folks and a romantic interlude with the equally great Katarina Witt. Wonderful family viewing.

Men's Figure Skating Finals and Medals Ceremony.

Brian Boitano kicked ass thumping both Brian Orser of Canada and the Russian Viktor Petrenko! Watch it happen.
