User blog comment:Epic~00/Why The Ice Dancers (JACQUES AND JOSEE) are the GREATEST (RR 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY)/@comment-26704228-20161010145601

This is really well written, and it's just for the first episode! Great job.

Can't wait for your review on the two next episodes, especially Paris one because that's where I started to love them so bad. Also waiting for Bahamarama, where their deeper sides are shown and their team dynamics are one of the greatest and cutest I've seen, I really felt Josee when she was trapped, but we'll get to that later (unfortunately much later :.

Anyway I agree with most of what you said, their performance was good, I find them one of the more iconic characters and they're also the funniest ones to me in the franchise, but that's not all about them, they have a great conflict with the Cadets whivh we all know about, they were a pretty main team and played a good game. They also were the antagonists and I think they served that purpose well, I can't really see someone strategic as Heather or Alejandro in RR as main villains because this show is less about strategy and more about winning, but the Ice Dancers have exactly what it takes, they focus on one thing: Getting first and winning, which is exactly what fits this format. They sabotage and manipulate others in order to achieve this and are sometimes successful, but sometimes not, both cases have wonderful or hilarious results. And in the end they got perfect karma, third place, not too severe but very fitting, which is what I like.

Also gotta agree with you about the technical details. Their design and outfits are nice, but I'll focus on the voice. Scott McCord is the best VA in the show by far imo. He does a wonderful with Jacques and even though he voices many other characters (Owen, Trent, Brody, and some minor characters including the Killer in TDI and maybe some more I can't remember), he still does a unique job with each of them and especially Jacques. Jacques' voice is great for him and really unique, and his accent is done perfectly and is really enjoyable to hear. Also Josee's voice fits her and especially in the parts where she gets mad, especially when she fakes a smile while doing so (aka the whole show :P). Same as Jacques (although less notable with her), her accent is really good.

Definitely going to follow this blog and share my thoughts on each episode (which are gonna be pretty similar to yours :P). Keep up the great job on these wonderful characters :D
