Chandi is looking good (obviously a pet of Kelly’s) but she made show group with three votes? That may be why we didn’t see Jalyn’s performance.
Wow interesting thought! I always thought Kelli cut competition out early so that VK would stand out more against other TCC candidates, so its possible she is still doing it in little ways.

1. When VK was “point” and MRS gave the ridiculous speech about no rookie wanting to be near her, they then went to kicking. VK was huffing and puffing and hunching. Behind her was Jada executing perfect kicks with ease and someone comments that she is showing up the vets. Yes she was! Particularly a certain vet that dances “heavy” on everything!
I thought we were done with having VK shoved down our throats. Oh, guess not!? UGH

Really shocked by the edit they gave Kristin's solo - it was an artistic piece and they made her look so so bad. I feel like it's a warning shot to other dancers not to do political pieces - am I being melodramatic?
I watched the insta link and its better with the music but still doesn't have much dancing. I also don't think it takes advantage of the strong beat driven moments in the song. That said, I don't even live there or watch pro football and know Jerry doesn't like politics in his football and can't imagine Charlotte would feel differently.

Can someone list the show group members? I understand Hannah is not back in, but does anyone know the rest? I read somewhere that CiCi lost her spot and Lisa got on. Obviously this is not true because if it was, they would have shown that.
Thanks!
I can't believe no one is talking about how Jalyn is not back in showgroup! They did not even show hers which makes me think it was good enough to invite scrutiny to the selection process.

RE: the dances we didn't see -
Production really could have made this a two part episode since they had to film everyone initially. were they that bad that they didn't make the final cut for the episode?
I think they didn't want us to notice who was truly strong and not. I wish it was 2 episodes, we really did not get to see the dances.

I also don't understand why every new dance, regardless of style/choreographer , she is a slow learner...
Some girls are slower learners but if they don't put in the extra work to make up for the deficit (stay up all hours, etc) they get cut. They kept her because of her beauty despite her slow learning last season. That has to be such a pain for Judy. So either she worked her but off and has it all down now or she doesn't. I was pulling for her last year but I think she should go.

Travis Wall is my favorite guest choreographer every year. He brings such joy to the show.
I’m trying to remember what else happened. Meredith struggled, okay that’s normal. Kat is back, okay that’s normal. Maddie spoke. That’s rare. I want Caroline to find a new hairdresser. Hannah, I feel you. This year is so tough that what brings me joy normally isn’t doing it. But you are a diamond.
Rookies, Jada is tall, and that’s their only issue with her? I still don’t know the rest of them. Season is flying by.Kelli has said in the past that taller girls need to "live in plie" and I don't know a lot but there are moments where I thought a deeper plie would help her. I'm glad they are giving her extra attention because she is beautiful and I think would be a great rep for DCC.

I disagree on Hannah, though. Not sure what's going through their heads. But they were IMO unfairly harsh on Jayln, last year. So, maybe Kelli is hung-up on redheads.
Maybe too many redheads is messing with Kelli's "diverse bouquet" lol

I like Kat but even I can’t defend her coming back and not appearing to be a stronger dancer than she was last season. The same can be said of Meredith. She has a pretty face but that shouldn’t have been enough to get her on the squad.
Kat’s solo last season was painful to watch but she isn’t the first to forget her choreography. Meredith’s didn’t make me cringe but I thought it was just meh. I still remember Angela Rene’s awful solo and I still wish Kitty hadn’t embarrassed Vivian into ditching her Tin Man solo. Man I would’ve loved to see the judges reaction to that. Makes me smile just thinking about it.
I’ve got a list as long as my arm of women that shouldn’t have made it into training camp or made the squad but they did. Kelly will bend her rules to the point of breaking if she wants someone badly enough. Cally Fullerton never should’ve got a second chance at training camp. She still was an awkward mover unable to control her limbs. Catherine D got a second shot at training camp even though she still couldn’t dance. Kelsey is kept out of training camp because she is supposedly an ambassador risk but Yuko who can barely speak or understand english would apparently make a great ambassador. Go figure. Morgan struggled with memory mistakes all the way through training camp but she made the squad. Emily who had no projection, was as boring as the day is long and was called into the office about five times still made the squad. I’ve never, in 14 seasons, seen adjustments made to a uniform because a TCC didn’t look good in it. But for Meredith an exception is made and she even got to look at her very bad photos and then got a second photo shoot. I always thought looking bad in the uniform and not photographing well were grounds for being cut ... especially if you’re struggling in the dance studio. Obviously that doesn’t apply to everyone.
I love watching the dancing, and uniform fittings and the other elements involved in making the team. The blatant favoritism drives me batty. The show would be much more enjoyable if the treatment of the ladies was more even handed and they were all held to the same standards. I will step down off my soapbox now. Thanks for listening (or not). 😊
This was almost flawless in its execution but you did not mention Cassie or Victoria! (of course Cassie doesn't seem that bad after Victoria! lol)

I didn't think of that! They need us on staff next year!

Any body keeping score on who both Charm and Denise said no or maybe too ?
No, but I re-watched the episode because Charm seems to speak truth. I love her!
Jessica- like it
Armani- I love it
Sheridan- sloppy
Darian- you are playing it safe. You have the moves...(encouraging)
Jada- you got it back there, don't get distracted
Marrisa- you pushed through, you got out of step but you push through. you got to find the light in your dance.
Annabelle- then at some point she said she would get rid of the whole group. All I know is Jada, Marrisa, Annabelle and maybe Alora Rose were in that group but there might have been one more
Elli- (positive) hitting it, Elli!
Sheridan, Claire, Sydney- floating it, just getting it done
Annabelle- fell off for me. you tired?
AloraRose- you were all over the place for me. There is a difference between dancing big as possible and wild (Charm, please work with VK)
yes to Darian, Armani, Elli, Jada, Tori, Dani
(no) thank you to Annabelle, Shannan, Alora, Claire D

No idea how old it is but it's featured on the show EVERY year, wouldn't you at least see if you could try some of the footwork or get the arm sequence as best you can? You could certainly try to practise your sexy walk and travelling.
I remember one of Kelli's pet projects who had a toddler and did make the team went to another football field and practiced that entrance hitting the lines. I don't remember but a vet might have helped her. But then another person a different year/episode where they had to practice at another stadium said the lines were different. I don't really see how the lines could be different since football fields are measured out... but that is what was said.

I really like Hannah and was very surprised to see that she wasn’t included in the top 36 on Kelly’s board. What in the world kind of scoring system are they using that put Annabelle on the board as the highest scoring rookie. She’s been on the struggle bus since day one yet she outscored Elli, Armani, Dani and Claire W. I’m also baffled by why Hannah wasn’t in the top 36.
I didn't realize they had Hannah below the 36. That can't be correct... must be something else going on.

On the tall note, interesting commentary on Jada.
I guess I didn't see her dance much so it was surprising to me. I just think she has amazing hair, and is she tall or Armani short?

Yes! Marsha, Marsha, Marsha!

Moving on, I'm pleasantly surprised with Sydney. I noticed she has a more muscular bottom half (I wish my butt looked like that!), but I haven't heard anyone mention it. Girls in the past would've been labeled "bottom heavy", but maybe they're starting to ease up on that. I don't think she had her uniform fitting since she got sick, so we'll see how she looks in the shorts.
I'm glad they are encouraging Sydney. It's surprising she was not stronger previous episodes with her dance background. I do think she is really pretty and that 8 count was sexy!

I yelled at the TV when they said Hannah was looking pale. Obviously visiting a tanning salon isn't at the top of her priority list during a freaking pandemic! Give the woman a break!
I remember thinking they are being so nice this season and I missed the snark and then they pick on Hannah! I don’t get their comments about Hannah. She is a ginger, so she would naturally be more ivory complected. Reminds me of Irish dance where they had everyone spraytan their legs and I thought, we are celebrating Irish culture and we are a pale people this makes zero sense! lol! I think it is pageant world ideas creeping in but what do I know?!

honestly it sounded like she meant it in a "this would be better for her than dcc" way. i don't think she thinks she should try out again. she was like 'i'll remember you and your cows, forever, annabelle. *cries* goodbye'
That's how I took it. They normally say "we think you could develop.." or "We would like to see you next year" if they mean it.

Why it is ok for Kat and Meredith to be behind ? Its 12 months too late to be in the "almost" category.
Please take my suggestion and cut the lowest scoring vet that comes into training camp.
Kat, I know they love her beauty and personality (or persona?) but no… she struggled all year.
Meredith, I pulled for her all last year because I felt they needed some pretty girls on the squad but she needs to go. She barely made the squad last year and is still messing up …

I don't care for Alora-Rose's style it seems really clunky. She reminds me of that dancer that was kicked off for being "toxic" about weight comments Chelsea?, which is funny because I adored her she had a big personality. Maybe because of this season we just can't see the personalities and get to know the candidates, but I don't get the appeal.

Thank you Thor for opening this!
OK, I loved Annabelle's video and it made me see why Kelli liked her so much. "How 'bout them Cowboys!" 🙂 But I get that she isn't quite up to the task. I think Maddie knew it too with the camera attention -she gave it a side eye. (nice to see her looking out for candidates) Annabelle was gracious and had the experience of her life!

Someone with 30 years of experience would not allow her best friends daughter to be an embarrassment to the entire "world-class" organization.
Spill the tea, what did Victoria do this time? I only saw her face once, thank goodness!
S15 E06: Upstaged
in S15
I couldn't tell who was on the bottom of their screen during show group deliberations, but I could see it was 3 uniforms/vets. I think that is unusual it may be because of the way they did TC this year, but I thought they tried to not allow vets to return to TC if they did not feel they had the best year, etc. So, Meredith I get. what other vet is on that below 36?
