I GIve It A Six: The Long Program Lacked Originality
4 February 2023
A young skater's mother hires a coach from out of town to take over her daughter's training. When he comes to town, Spencer (Andrew W. Walker) enlists the aid of a former champion, Emily (Julie Berman), who skates at the local rink and has a good relationship with the young girl.

Spencer soon realizes that Emily ---who inexplicably walked away from the sport years ago---still has what it takes to compete. He begins to coach her, too. Of course, feelings follow, as this is a Hallmark romance.

The story is somewhat weak and very predictable. But the characters are likable.

Ana Golja plays the young skater, Nikki Lee. Her mother is played by Gail O'Grady and she really captures that skating mother vibe: overly-demanding, aggressive, and too involved.
