''Skating with Celebrities'' is an American celebrity reality television show that began airing on the Fox network on January 18, 2006. The show also aired in Australia on Network Ten in early 2006 and in New Zealand in October 2008. The show was the U.S. version of ''Dancing on Ice'', which also aired in the UK during the same time period. ''Skating with Celebrities'' was met with far less success than the UK original and lasted only one season. The show was at the center of a controversy involving allegations that one of the competing couples, Lloyd Eisler and Kristy Swanson were involved in an extramarital affair.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title='Skating With Celebrities' Kristy Swanson, Lloyd Eisler pair up off ice )〕 The duo defeated the team of television personality Jillian Barberie and U.S. pairs champion John Zimmerman to win the show's first, and only, championship. On March 2, 2006 production was cancelled and it was announced that the show would not return for a second season. ==Synopsis== Following the success of ABC's ''Dancing with the Stars (U.S. TV series)'' Fox started airing its own celebrity competition revolving around skating instead of dancing. The show paired six champion figure skaters with six celebrities who have various degrees of skating experience: Deborah Gibson, a novice; Dave Coulier played ice hockey in Canada; Kristy Swanson had taken lessons as a child; Jillian Barberie trained as a competitive figure skater into her teens. Each team was composed of one man and one woman and they had to perform a new routine during each episode. As part of their new routines, each celebrity had to demonstrate a specific figure skating skill. Each pair received scores for technical merit and artistic impression from a trio of judges. The scores were added together to create a cumulative score. No teams were eliminated in the first episode. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Skating with Celebrities」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
