Spooky

Is that little Heather on the Titans team? I looked up the roster reveal video on youtube and it sure looks/sounds like her.

I want to issue a mea culpa as well...to Gina. I was on her like white on rice from the jump; something about her just got to me. Then when she was called out for her behaviour, my dislike for her was justified in my mind. She has won me over (silly faces and all) and she's definitely one of the best dancers they've ever had. Would love to see her point/shared point because she's not the typical drop-dead gorgeous, tall, loads of blonde-haired girl we're used to and she's a fantastic dancer. Sorry, Gina!

It looks like the board was in alpabetical order until after Victoria; then it gets all mixed up (no connection I'm sure...).

If they do the two girls lying down in the front, my bet it will be Rachel and Tess with Maddie center of the front row. I just can't see Maddie lying on the floor (even if it's done with "grace"); I adore her but not sure she could pull off any of the sprawling poses, ya know? Gina looks so far back in the formation from what I've seen; hope I've just missed her; happy to see her get a group though.

I tell ya; 2020 is really messing with everything; even cheerleaders and mediocre reality tv shows are not spared. The "maybe you made the team; maybe you didn't" is kinda long for a team slogan though. A few years ago we had #BELIEVE; I guess this year is #MAYBE.

If they ever bring locker room tours back; someone needs to print out about 100 of Brennan's IG post and tape them around the room.

Was it a white box with blue letter; if so, that was probably chicken cordon bleu and well worth eating the entire box. Marsel is taking the whole falling to my knees thing quite literally. I really liked Robert's sister; TLC needs to send her up to CT and have a come to Jesus talk with Syngin and the twins.

Looks like Bridget is going for Lauren's six-pack; can't imagine the work and discipline it takes to stay in that shape. I was in the Navy and had a two-pack at one point from running up and down ship ladders, but a few sodas or box of pop-tarts and they were gone. 😔 I'd love to see a Bridget, Gina, Jalyn, Caroline diamond; mix 'em up, I don't care who is at point. But we'll probably get VK and three blenders.

Check out the blonde in the lower right of the screen; she clearly notices VK's mistake and brings one of her hands up to her head and places the other on her hip. Looks clear to me she's reacitng to VK. The hair doesn't look long/thick enough to be Judy; any idea who it could be? Would TK be allowed on the field?

I would be mortified if that happened to me; there was no hiding that mistake. Loved Bridget at point in part of the Christmas song triangle...please let her stay another year!

Regarding Aaron Rodgers; I wonder if he said something to Maddie on the field? I've seen video of players being on the field before performances are done. Maybe he told her to move or something?? Spill the deets, Kristi!

Watching season 4 now; have never seen it before. Those Minchew sisters were something else; so shitty they took two spots (even though Kaime was brought back to fill one of them). Love seeing Jackie Bob as a newbie! She's always so poised and confident; it was odd to see her learning and unsure of herself. I just adore her. Got a good chuckle out of the training unis; so plain in the beginning and now they're so blinged out. CMT started writing big checks for fake crystals by the time I started watching in 2015. Judy was so much more vocal back then; doing counts, giving corrections and critiques etc., sometimes it feels like she's Kelli's PA. The lady that opens the door before office chats scares me. Cheryl is so much more pleasant. Pet peeve: if they cut girls for not knowing NFL hierarchy, they should cut girls for not saying Dallas CowboyS cheerleader. Does my head in everytime I hear it. Don't know if I read it here or it was on the show, but I recall someone saying "you're not cheering for one cowboy"!

I about jumped off my chair when I saw my place! There are probably upwards of 700 units here and three parking garages all surrounding the dog park. You don't need a keycard to get into the gate for the dog park so they could've just filmed there out of convenience. I know my fat ass was at work at 11:00 a.m. so I wouldn't have seen a film crew. But you can bet now that the weather is sorta cooling off I'm going to be taking more strolls around the park to see if I recognize anyone or those cute doggos.

So tired of seeing VK in the middle of almost every photo, every dance session; etc., we get it, Moses came down from the mountain and anointed her the best thing ever. The spa scene looked like one of the veteran-rookie mentoring sessions we've seen before, not three rookies. Meredith - I'm just over her; don't care how she dances at this point. Her just woke up/vocal fry is as annoying as her crying. Evan was so fun to watch; such a genuine smile and looked like he was having the time of his life. Thanks for the info about Tyce; didn't dig him at all. Sorta off-topic; the visit to the dog park showed one of my apartment windows. I'm DCC: MTT famous y'all.

I know "Stough" is Jalyn's last name, but I love that her profile reads "jalyns tough". Because if what we've heard is true and she was booted off show group for daring to try to help Vicky, than she's tougher than I could ever be. I'm too old to remember if it was discussed but it's interesting they couldn't find another day anywhere during the summer when the whole team was available. Just odd to me. Wonder if the conversation between KaShara and K&J about point was in reference to the promo and not TS which is why Amy and Maddie weren't mentioned?

Um, I thought the same thing...watched it a few times because I really didn't think it was her. She was killing it.

Oh wow...hopefully rattled nerves from what we heard was a messed up sound system. Can't imagine she'd be given half-point tonight after the Queen performance and then this. Ouch.

They change the locker nameplates every year it seems; first/last name, first/middle name, name and stars for what year they're in and now it looks like name and state based on Victoria's. She did take a nice cameo although the one curl sticking out would make me crazy.

I saw a great video from an Ohio State game last year that had the pom squad next to the dance team and it was so neat to see the differences side-by-side. Finally clicked in my head how different the types of dancing are (it was my 50-yard Kelsey moment).

I've been watching the older seasons on PlutoTV and it's been interesting to watch the girls in the older seasons use regular 'ole purses and gym bags. But as the seasons progressed, expensive purses and bigger bags are more prevalent. I think some of the TH segments are filmed meeting rooms or hotel rooms at the Gaylord Texan; I noticed several of the same rooms in a few older seasons.

Wonder who is in the back of the formation one her own...practicing in case of injury or someone they're not sure is up to performing yet?

I asked the same thing a few pages back. Not injured enough to where she couldn't dance, but just unable to do any "tricks". I really feel for her; as a second leader she probably thought she'd move up a lot too. Fingers crossed it was just for that performance and she'll show up closer to where she can shine.

Ugh; squad photo. I know (well, maybe not) Victoria won't get the middle of the floor spot, but she'll for sure be the center of the bouquet (with tiny Jalyn behind her).

Is it possible Gina is injured a bit and was put in that spot because she couldn't do certain moves (like the one where they do the leg extension next to their heads-I'm not a dancer, can ya tell)? Not injured enough to be benched, but enough not to be showcased? Please, somebody tell that's possible? Pleeeeeaaasssseee?
