    We have long since theorized that some vets were cut for tv purposes only. So, with only a few confirmed retirements so far,  it will be very interesting to see what happens next. Will they cut no other vets and accept just a few rookies? Or will we see another vet culling, like the one we had with Lily, Brennan, Madeline and Hannah? 

    If they do cut (or not invite to TC) another 4 vets or so without a tv show, you could argue that it is simply part of a pro dancer’s career. There could have been legit issues or concerns in the previous season that we did not know about after all. And some of the rookies are simply better.

    But….if no vets are cut, and they’ll take only a hand full of rookies? Is that a coincidence? Or would that be proof that some girls were indeed sacrificed for show purposes only? Without a tv show, there’s certainly little need to create all that extra drama.

    Do you mean Meredith?

    Is it possible that Lexi is doing something that starts in the spring/late-spring so it makes transitioning to her next chapter easier ( on SM) if it is announced now? Like starting grad school in January. getting married in the spring, big move/job upcoming ?

    Or she could be someone who likes "long goodbyes" - ie " I can't believe this is the last time I will do/see/experience xxx"  - for days until the end..  {sidenote: I had a former co-worker that ran the 2 week notice thing into the ground...}

    BTW- Just glanced up at the Macy's parade and the featured ladies just did  a jump split - on a concrete street !! the location flashed - 77th st and Central park west.  I missed the name of the group - they are wearing maroon, with a "M" on their sweater, looked to be HS age. So, future TCCs - take note - yes - the jump split is taught somewhere , and probably outside of TX, before trying out for a DCC, And the precision dancing of the cast, which is pretty diverse, from the shows on the Macy's star - wow... What former DCC do we know that is now on Broadway? 

    Lexie is already married and has been for a few years. They even showed her wedding pics on the first episode of the new season a few years ago.

    It's probably best I don't see Tara's cut again bc it absolutely crushed me for her, still does & when someone compared Hannah's cut to Tara's it brought up all the old feelings, omg I need a life!

    Yep same. So I guess I need one too LOL!

    Oh! Maybe it was on the seasons I purchased from Amazon! I need background noise to drown out my husband’s conference calls while we both work from home so I usually put Pluto on first.  But if it’s a season I’ve seen 1000 times I’ll head over to Amazon and put on 13 or 14. I’m sorry if I got hopes up, please forgive me!🥺

    Oh no worries at all! I just wondered if you had unlocked the magical world past Season 12 on Pluto! And I'm totally on board with the background noise. I had to lol when you said you were drowning out the hubby's conf calls 😂 I keep my TV on almost all the time just to keep it from being so quiet (I live alone) although it is easy to get distracted while working especially when the good episodes come on (like today when "toxic Chelsea" was getting tossed off the team!) Certain episodes never get old!

    I recently rewatched Tara’s cut on Pluto tv

    How are you seeing anything past Season 12 on Pluto TV? I can only watch through Season 12 (which was the year Tara made the team) on Pluto then it starts over with Season 1. I keep hoping they'll add Seasons 13-14 but I haven't seen those yet on Pluto. Please share the secret if you are seeing any seasons past Season 12 on Pluto 😀

    Lol! Thanks! As I was typing that I was thinking maybe I had the wrong girl😄

    You're welcome! All those blondes can run together sometimes in my head! They both were cute as can be but their "Minnie Mouse" voices were similar too lol!

    The eyebrow talk reminds me of when Jordan Chanley had her comma shaped ones refined during her rookie makeover. Good call👍🏼

    I believe that was Brittany Evans with the "comma shaped" brows (just saw that episode a few days ago on Pluto 😎)

    NFC South also has a team who is hugging the bottom for foolish reasons - like watching a live ball roll across the field after an onside kick....hint: note my postername.. Hence a new TCC , who also was the pro-bowl rep, has my full support being elsewhere this season... 

    The Jets just need to find their peace and comfort in their 1st round pick - which most likely will be Tyler Florence from Clemson

    Dallas just need to find their peace and comfort in that Dak will continue to heal back to his playing condition for 2021. If they make the playoffs (I think there is an extra wild card game slot this year - source ), that will be a bonus. No need to be calling the jeweler getting fingers measured for a ring, though.

    Switching over to the AFC - 🙏 go  out to Denver. All four QBs will miss game vs. Saints due to COVID protocol. Last I heard , Denver does not want to forfeit the game, and I guess it can't be rescheduled/postponed. Stay tuned - kickoff is not until 4 pm EST

    I think you mean Trevor Lawrence from Clemson 😉

    I was curious about that as well 🙂  I'm wondering if she will have a small ceremony then have a big party later this year when things calm down.  I know that is what my friends who got married over the past month are doing. 

    You are correct. She posted a pic of her and Trevor with the marriage license on IG over the weekend and stated that they're going ahead with a small wedding this coming weekend with just family/close friends with a bigger event to be scheduled later on.

    No you didn’t. Just clarifying before that rumor gets set it stone. 

    There was no "rumor". Not sure how that was taken that way. All I did was point out the similarities. Regardless I liked both girls and hated to see what happened in either case. Two totally different situations and unfortunate circumstances. I missed both girls when they were cut. End of story.

    She is now as well.  I know it was speculated that she gained because she was concentrating more on school, but I never bought it, I wonder what really happened.

    Wow that is surprising. I haven't seen any pictures of her or anything about her since she got cut. I know when they first called her in she said she "needed to make a lifestyle change" and "make working out a priority" but she was also falling out of her turns and stumbling during rehearsals. Also her face that 2nd year had a "hard" look compared to how fresh and cute she looked the previous year. I'm with you - something else was going on. How does someone regress that much in dancing (and weight) when they're a top performer and show group member only one year ago? Kaitlyn LeGrand also comes to mind. Her first year vs. her second year were night and day.

    And *gasp* they only have a few days to rehearse, will they or won't they be able to perform???  Ummm, spoiler alert, if they couldn't perform it they'd never televise it 🤣

    So true! Like if they'd actually dropped someone they would show it! 

    Now watching season 8 which was Tessa's first time trying out. I was shocked when I came across her  interview after her stroke! That really affected her in a major way. 

    This was also the year Hannah West made it. Comparing that year to when she came back for year two and got cut for weight is eye opening. She was a stick in season 8!

    They're skipping over that now?  Oh good, I found that segment SOOO annoying.

    Ha! Yes just watched it this morning (for the 3rd time in the last month!) They showed all the rehearsals, the locker room prep with dressing in the pink outfits, then cut - back in the locker room. I liked the Big and Rich performance (when it was actually shown) and it's just strange now they show the interview with both guys talking about performing with the girls, they show him saying "Ladies and gentlemen the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders" going into the break then cut...not shown. 

    I will note the Komen practice (and some episodes before it) were all the "Cassie and my injured knee and will it hold up". 🙄

  14. I've been binge watching on Pluto for over a month now and have noticed something weird. Why do they now skip over some of the previously shown performances - like the show group performance with Big and Rich and the Komen halftime show from season 7? Has anyone else noticed that? They show all the prep/practice (like for the Komen show) and also show everything leading up to walking out. Even with the Big and Rich performance, going into the commercial break they show them introducing the cheerleaders...then boom - cut - now we're back in the locker room and it's all over. Is this a copyright thing - like the cheesy "music overs" when the use of music limit expired? Or just a time saver? I know for a fact a lot of those performances were previously shown so it's just weird they're missing now.

  15. Good grief was anyone else screaming "F U Kelli" at the TV during that office visit with Julia? I know Julia's comments during media day were off base but geez "now you've insulted LA dancers"?!? Where is this disgust/white hot hate/bitchy attitude towards these "non-favorites" (Julia, Shaina, Madeline S) coming from this year? Kinda going low IMO. 

    Okay okay I have to admit, VK did look really pretty during cameos. Her hair looked great (not so outdated) and her figure was amazing. There. I said it. Moving on....😀

    Ohhhh yes! Thanks.  Now I can see the replay of it in my head.  (OK back on topic 🙂 )

    Seriously?? Kash??

    It's just insane to me after taking a class with Kash at the studio she works for that she would ever be talked about as being on WW. She is literally so small (and gorgeous) in person. 

    I agree. I love Kashara. I think she is gorgeous and has a great figure. However go back and watch the veteran farewell segment from the last episode. Not sure if it's what she's wearing or a bad angle but you can definitely see some "extra" on the side especially when they show her from the back. I was kinda shocked to see that on her because she has always looked amazing. Of course not having to worry about trying out, I'd be eating whatever I wanted!

    I would never leave any of my critters behind. So if she does, the cat is probably better off. Sorry to sound harsh, my pets are like my children!

    Agree! But I wonder - is her BF staying here in the US for now or going back with her? She said they were getting married but I didn't know if he's from the US or from Japan too? Anyone know? My hope was she would come back to Texas to marry the BF so he would keep the kitty for now.

    My husband is adopted so I asked him about the Chandi issue and her being bullied. He pointed out that Chandi is a different race than her Mom and I hadn’t picked up on that initially. 

    At the same time, I am really sick of the sob stories. They’re starting to sound more contrived every season. Amanda’s was the least believable to me. 

    Yes! Not saying her brother passing isn't sad. But he was 3 years old when he passed and in the quick picture they showed of them together, she looked maybe 2-3 years older than him making her around 5 or 6 when he died? So how much could she really remember him? I guess enough to garner some tears for her back story for a show but it's become really tiresome. 

    I grew up with a good friend who had a sister one year older than she is. Her sister drowned at 6 years of age (so my friend was 5 when her sister died). Even when we were teenagers she admitted she remembered a few details about her sister but not much because she was so young when she died.

    I think I have decided I don't like Kat.

    *ducks tomatoes being thrown at the stage*

    She seems to be trying toooooo hard.

    Lily and Amanda - meh.

    The overproduction makes me nostalgic for earlier seasons

    And the forced camaraderie is so "Heathers" and "Mean Girls" it makes me want to throw something at my TV. 

    This season isn't about "Making the Team" its about playing to the camera and being cast.

    Agreed on Kat. And did anyone catch her severe eye roll when another girl's name was called before hers? Either that was crafty editing put in to make her look petty or she was being really rude. We know you're all anxious but clap for others as they will for you if your name is called. Come on now - can't you hear Kelli in your head saying "World Class" over and over 😂

    Between Kat and VK and the hideous opening song/commercial break song I'm not feeling this season already. I too long for previous seasons.

    My cat is American. <— If these episodes had titles. 🤣

    I do not like Kat. 

    This. 100% agree. Not sure if it was editing or a real moment captured, but Cat's eye roll when another girl's name was called for finals came off as pretty rude. Yes we know you're anxious but graciousness and humility are part of being "World Class". JS

    Yuko was just adorable in that veteran segment.

    I froze my DVR & counted. There were 7 rows of 16 girls in the stands. That’s 112 ladies trying out, so 101 made it to semis, only 11 were sent home.

    Yeah this whole "400 girls try out" thing needs to die. Every year Kelli and the producers try to push that thinking we all don't know how to count! It's so obvious when they put them all into one section of the stadium how small the group is! Also "skipping around" with the tryout numbers ain't fooling anyone. Seriously Kelli - just stop it.
