I seem to recall reading that the original cameo and team photo photographer retired, and his son is the photographer now? I'm not sure that's correct, but the cameo pictures are terrible.
It's not just the photographer, but the hair and makeup are not good.
There must be a better photographer available.

My guess is the flooring crew told them that if they tried to refinish the floors lighter, they would have to sand them, and the floors weren't going to do that. Since the floors were so old, I bet they've been refinished all that they can be. I wonder if they really want to go lighter someday, that they'll have to replace the floors entirely.

I loved what Brenda said to him too. I think Brenda didn't even think they were accomplices until the girl came in to talk to her, and told her they were all in the next room. It's been so long since I saw this episode that I wasn't sure until right at the end if it actually was suicide, or if the father was directly involved too.
I've noticed that there are only episodes on Lifetime Friday nights now, and not on Wednesday on the Lifetime Movie channel.

I liked the house, but hated the dark floors. My neighbors have really dark floors, and they all wish they had the medium brown ones I have because mine don't show every bit of dirt.

To answer the velvet couch question, yes they do scratch velvet. A friend adopted a cat as an indoor only (cat was at the shelter, declawed long before, and people wanted to adopt it and let it out) because she would never let it out. Within a few years her antique velvet couch had bald arms, and some other places. It looked like it had mange, but the cat still looked lovely, and happy. Poor couch.
I felt so sorry for the cat that couldn't even go in it's own yard because of a wandering bully. I'm glad they helped him.

I almost forgot about the Minchew sisters. I couldn't believe they wanted to work DCC around their pageant obligations during the year, and thought Kelli and Judy would be OK with that. And then the one sister coming back later just floored me.

Since it's another season, I don't know if this is allowed, but I watched the 2011 season on Throwback Thursday, and in the makeovers Taylor had her extensions, or whatever they were, taken out and got that edgy haircut. Then she got talked to about hating her hair, and showing it by Kelli. Does anyone know what happened to her later? And if she got her extensions put back in after she left the DCC/TCC? I think she would have been great on another cheer team, so I'm hoping she went some where else that might fit her better. I loved seeing the 2011 DCC/TCC and so many familiar faces.

My guess is that like any other dance studio owner, Kitty knows her best clients will be people who take multiple classes a week, for years on end, and tell their friends how great the studio is. I can't wait until the next episode when KC comes to town, but I'm afraid we'll have another person ignoring the elephant in the room (yes, I did that deliberately) and not mention any flab. I know very little about dance, but I think of clunky, out of control, and flabby dancer, then I see VK.

I wonder if Lana thought she would take her sister's place, and when RJ remarried, that set her off. I think she was always very jealous of her sister's career. Millions of movie goers loved Natalie, but I've never known one person who was wild about the sister When Natalie was making big budget movies, and then went with lower budget as she aged, Lana never had a big career. Also, I'm sure Natalie was upset about the fact she was no longer the young, beautiful star of movies, but the older lead, and that had to hurt.
About three years later Lana wrote a book about her sister, and that's after RJ started dating, and maybe living with Jill St. John, so I bet that's when the relationship went south, and the vendetta started.
Something I wondered about, the ship's captain said for years that he knew nothing about Natalie's death, but in the past years he's been pushing the murder angle. He might remember that the other two men on board were really drunk, and says Natalie had been drinking too. The captain claims he wasn't drunk, so he might remember that he becomes a viable suspect too, and might think about what someone might say about him, and what he did that night. Maybe Natalie got into the dinghy to get away from someone who was after her? I don't think two really drunk men who were ticked at each other, and alibi each other are the chief suspects, but a person who claimed to be fairly sober is certainly a different story. Throwing suspicions around by so-called witnesses can make people look at their story much closer.
The middle daughter had a short article talking about her mother's death, and how all of this rehashing hurts all three daughters.

I'm glad for Mimi, and hope her new career goes well. I'm sorry she's been flooded out three times (2 in Lake Charles, 1 in Houston), but why did she still have so much stuff to move to League City, and so much stuff in her old house if she lost a lot? I know it's awful to lose so many personal things, but what she kept was too much furniture, knick knacks, and I'm betting school craft supplies. I hope getting rid of almost everything helps her in the long run, and she won't start keeping stuff for a career she never will work at again.
It might be tough to find an apartment for one person that she can afford after the flooding in Houston, so I'm betting the three sisters are splitting the rent, and utilities. I have heard that contractors that do a decent job are still in high demand in Houston, but I'm suspecting that she's not moving back to the house anyway. It's only 'her' house because she was living there, and it actually belongs to her daughter and son-in-law (Nick and Ashley). I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't just another story line. I think her new profession is a good choice with her outgoing personality, and I think with the show publicity, and hard work she can be very successful.
I know it's silly, but I worry about Hazel and her eye issues, that can cause all types of other issues later.

The pool case also made me wonder if excessive botox and fillers makes you stupid, or if that woman was an idiot before she 'vandalized' her face. Even though the house was sold "as is", I'm wondering if the homeowners could have sued for a lot more because of the fraud they could prove? The seller was lucky the buyers didn't really go after her.

The line up for this week looks good. I have issues remembering when this is on because it's on in the middle of the afternoon, on the half hour, and I don't watch anything else on that channel. I wish they would show this for an hour, with the new episodes, combined with a rerun, and I could catch up on older ones. To watch this I usually use my DVR, or I forget to turn the channel.
Off topic, but bad teeth, and the infection they lead to can poison your entire body, and kill you.

I agree about the look on Kelli's face in the office, and I think that was when Kelli finally realized what a problem she created by advocating for VK, and not telling her the truth. I think that was Kelli's breaking point, and she finally realized that not telling VK the truth wasn't being fair to her. I'm sure Kelli also realized that there was a big chance that helicopter parent TK would never speak to her again, but going on with this fiasco with VK simply because they are BFFs couldn't continue.
You can't change what you don't know is wrong. I wonder if some of the commercial studio instructors would tell someone the absolute truth, if it means that the person pays for a ton of classes will go somewhere else, where the instructors aren't criticizing them?
VK should have known her weight might be an issue, after the fact her mother has fought her weight her entire life. The fact that she acknowledged that, and then instead of working on tightening her middle, started eating too much makes me wonder if she deep down wanted an out. Now she can say that they picked on her, and make all kinds of excuses, and never have to worry about going back for DCC again.
It will be interesting to see Kitty next week. I love that she's been so honest with the DCC TCC over the years, and wonder if that will happen next week.

I love Denise. And I love the look from Judy of suppressed glee when Denise said that, and the weak justifications from Kelli started. I'm surprised Kelli had the guts to make excuses she knew weren't true, and how she ignored the jelly belly, and overall pudge VK has added to a not tiny figure.
If VK does come back next year, I'm probably dumping this show, and it's a shame because I've enjoyed watching the tryouts all the way through for all of the years this has aired. I loved the Throwback Thursday to the 2011 tryouts after last night.

It depends on the state. Years ago my military dad had a home base of my mother's state (no idea why, it was a bad move), which required inspections. Every freaking time we had to go visit my mother's parents in that state, we would get pulled over by the state troopers, after going through the toll booth. They sat there, looked for inspections, and valid stickers on the license plate (they were color coded by month and year, so it was easy to tell they were good), and nailed a lot of people every day. We got used to getting stopped because it happened every time we went for the lousy visits to the grandparents. Dad would have to show his military i.d., and show proof of where we lived, and then the officer would let us go. Dad finally started getting it inspected when we went to the state, so we wouldn't get pulled over.
In this case I bet you're right, and the idiot either did a big no-no with the car, or the officer was parked and noticed the inspection sticker was the wrong color, or something. And everyone's right, in Philadelphia the car would have been instantly towed, tickets issued on the spot, and the owner would have to go to court to pay the tickets, and pay the tow fees, and get it towed off the lot. No valid registration because of bad inspection means you have to surrender the plates. So he would then have to get the inspection done, fix anything they found wrong, then get emissions tests maybe, and then reregister the car. Of course, by then his insurance at fly by night insurance would have expired, or be cancelled, so he still couldn't drive it.
I think I've learned a lot watching Parking Wars.

What a stupid couple of litigants. I agree the dog from the other day was smarter than both of these fools. So p. finances a Dodge Dart for d., d. claims p. was only hiding the car with her, and she only had to pay insurance, and the insurance amount was just about the monthly cost for a used Dodge Dart (amazing coincidence that the amounts are about the same, or d. pays a freaking ton for car insurance). Of course d. totaled it, and the insurance didn't pay enough, so p. wants the shortfall on what insurance paid, vs. what she still owes.
Too bad infant d. didn't get a big payout for the lead poisoning, (from a 1999 case)because she still seems to be suffering the after effects of that, in being below 50 IQ points. Yes, some guardian sued years ago for lead poisoning, and lost.
I can't believe plaintiff was so stupid as to finance this car, when the defendant makes so little money, and has such bad credit. On a shallow note, what the hell is on the defendant's eyes? Huge fake eyelashes, or caterpillars she glued on? Byrd also got interrupted doing 9 Down on his puzzle to listen to this garbage.
Car with expired (last year) inspection gets pulled over after dropping car owner at the airport, and meandering his way home. The car got pulled over for expired inspection, they search the car and found weed, pills, and case was later dismissed. My guess is since it wasn't in his name, they couldn't prove if the driver and friend owned the drugs, or if the jerky car owner owned it, so they tossed it. Idiot car owner wants money the ticket and impound cost, which is over $300. New York requires valid inspection, and many areas emissions testing, and can't be reregistered until the inspection is valid. Car owner wanted moving costs, because he had to move from pill/weed user as a roommate, and moving out would look better for his custody battle. By the way, my reading is that if you don't have a valid inspection, then you don't have a valid registration, and they will tow you.
Soldier went to Alaska-D. agreed to store his truck on her property til he got back. D. and P. have braces or right arm casts, and P. is limping, I wonder if the hotel has a video of the fight they had last night? He stored his truck with her, and gun under the back seat of truck, gun is long gone, and he has zero proof of who did it. Defendant, who is wearing a lovely night clubbing dress, claims his Sergeant picked up the gun. However, he left his truck on her property, and it was trashed, and license plate switched. He found receipts in truck for gas, and she was driving his truck a lot. OMG! Defendant approached the bench without permission.
Apparently, the defendant ripped the front wheel almost off. It costs $4700 to get it fixed. He gets $1500, because he can't prove the other $3,200 was her damage.
D. claims towing, and no receipts, no money of course. She also wants $350 a month and utilities, and JJ told her to stuff it. Defendant claims he lived there for 10 days, and that made him a roommate.
Loan, rent, and dog with idiot boyfriend defendant. P. took his phone, apparently saw evidence of ho activity, and they had a fight over house temperature (no I'm not joking). I'm upset, apparently d. has no idea where dog is, but I'm hoping that a lie, and he got the dog a good home. I hate this heifer plaintiff already, and on a superficial note, next time buy that dress two sizes bigger so I don't have to see every bump of lard. She took his phone, and made some calls, I suspect to his other tramps, they had a fight, she never returned his phone, but changed it to her phone. He doesn't have to pay ho rent after he moved out. Now JJ gets to the big issue, where is the dog? She claims he stole the dog, and the police refused to make a report. Defendant still says he doesn't know where dog is. I love she's trying to sue for the cost of the dog, and she got it as a gift seven years ago. And plaintiff just said the dog came back on his own-what a bad dog owner she is, and what a freaking liar she is. Plaintiff gets nothing, and deserves nothing either. I'm not sure how the phone came out, because I was so ticked that plaintiff kept talking like the dog was permanently gone, and they finally admits the poor animal came back. Next time he should follow the old rule, "Never sleep with anyone crazier than you are".

Yes, I agree the pad injury was the kennel owners fault, but not the subsequent puking, and other illness that actually cost more. I think the dog owners thought they could get everything paid for, and not just the pad injury. I'm wondering if the dog eats random garbage, as some dogs do, or if the dog was incubating some disease.
The p. wife expected a bonanza, and was mad she didn't get it.

What is 'almost dating', just sleeping together, but not knocked up yet? So he drove her car, she claims he ran the red light, he claims the other car ran the red light, and p. keeps asking the d. what happened. Was she really in the car or not? Tickets were no insurance (on her car), he doesn't have insurance either; second ticket was for no license, or the license wasn't in his name. They call him Cartier Banks, because he's an artist, and p. doesn't know his real name.
Apparently, Mom of p. didn't know this insurance or anything else, Mom looks stunned and really pissed. According to police report a spinning car hit a third car. Witnesses say d. idiot ran red light, another non-involved driver says he swerved around driver stopping for the red light, into the bike lane, and ran the red light.
P. wants lost wages from the facial bruises (no seatbelt of course), meant that she couldn't work at the club. She claims she's a bottle seller, probably naked. That's bull, all of the women that work that club can cover bruises so you can't see them during a lap dance, or dancing on the pole. What the hell is going on with p.'s lower teeth? Missing or what?
MM gave that heifer almost $2200 for the car and tow, and heifer should have left with no money at all. He ran a red light, and could have killed a lot of people. JJ would have thrown them out when p. kept asking d. for information, and wouldn't have given p. a penny.
Bleeding dog paw from boarding kennel, and p. wants over $2300. Dog needed a few stitches according to d. A boxer/pit mix, but if there's any boxer in that dog I don't see it. Dog had paw injury, but those bleed a lot. Dog apparently had stitches, then dog is puking, etc. and not eating. IV fluids, X ray, and something with her stomach. How could this be caused by a paw injury? Wonder if the dog had all of it's shots? The kennel run looks fine to me, and I don't see how the dog got hurt. They get awarded a little over a thousand, not for the dog infection, which wasn't their problem. I bet the sour face on the p. wife is because she thought that d. was going to finance their dog's entire illness, cover the cut paw, the stomach issue, and their trip to Colorado. I hope in the future that the kennel owner refuses to deal with the plaintiffs.
p. wanted three puppies from litter, d. dog secretly had 11 puppies, and d. claims uncle didn't want them. p. wants 50 of profit from pit bull litter. Apparently there was an issue involving pot. What a couple of idiots, and I feel sorry for the female pit who probably will have litters every six months for the rest of her miserable life. There's also a dispute over weed, and a lot of family garbage. P. wins $1,000 and poor dog is still going to be popping out puppies. What a family full of losers.

The people who eat a bunch, and don't gain might also be bulimic, and are vomiting up, or using laxatives to keep their weight down.
The worst part of watching this show for me is that I get to know about the people. After that every time I see an update, I wonder if it will be that the person has gone back to binge eating, and are gaining a lot back, or that they've died.

Judy just isn't speaking up the way she used to. I wonder if something's wrong? I hope she just isn't discussing the cheerleaders on camera, but I'm sure her input is invaluable to the entire selection process. I miss the way Judy and Kelli would discuss before cuts, and try to decide if it was the end of the line.
I suspect that Judy and Kelli are talking a ton off camera. I think it's a result of Erika and her lawsuit, and the other cheerleader lawsuits about being treated like ornaments, and not members of the team.

Both of the falls looked very painful, and it must have been tough to get back up and dance so quickly. Who was the second one that hit the floor? She looked very heavy. Dayton looked wonderful. VK looked heavy. Who picked the long gray tops? They were hideous.
Kristin looks ready to faint again.

Sexual harassment/no wages-Woman who wears a black bra with a see through pink top needs to do something different, so I don't see her underwear. Of course, at least she wears bras.
Woman owed 1,036 for back wages, until she claims man harasses female employees that don't put out. Unfortunately, JJ doesn't like people who lie about harassment, and screen grab pictures off of FB/Instagram, whatever, and claim they were sent directly to them. Idiot woman lost her back wages. The highlight was when d.'s witness got bounced by Byrd. Also, JJ mentioned Byrd's crossword and asked him to transfer bag to d. interrupting valuable crossword time.
Pool fraud-Woman who sold house says on disclosure that 15 year old above ground pool liner is OK. Her husband asked for a proposal to get a new liner in 2016, and house sold in 2017, with still ripped liner. I bet her real estate agent wants to hurt her right now. I think replacing the liner before putting it on the market, or just removing the pool, would have been the smarter option. However, d. is stupid, and lied on disclosure about the pool instead of doing the right thing. I think the pool liner issue should have been easy to see by either an inspector, or the buyer, so I'm not sure they should get entire amount. $2,000+ awarded, but they bought the house as is, and the pool was plenty old enough to be falling apart, and they did have a chance to inspect everything, so don't think I would have given them the full amount.
Drunken brawl, leading to wreck of car in driveway on Thanksgiving. P. in her truck, D. in his truck following p. home. She claims d. drove across grass in turn around, and rammed her car in her driveway. D. claims p. jumped into car again she parked, and backed up and hit the right side of her car, on his truck. His insurance company didn't pay, but at least he had insurance. P. doesn't want to put through her insurance, because she has $1,000 deductible, and she doesn't want to pay that. JJ told everyone too bad. I bet everyone was drinking, including p., and were all driving loaded. What a lovely drunken Thanksgiving that was.

Some local mattress stores here will exchange a mattress to keep good will, and their reputation intact. However, they get killed on the exchange, because they can only donate a pristine mattress, and then it's sterilized and resold through thrift stores, or trash the mattress. That woman was infuriating, and I'm guessing she goes through life eating the steak (TM JJ), and then wanting a full refund and damages.
I'm sure the person that invented the pillow top mattress is beloved by the entire furniture and mattress industry, since it cuts the life of your mattress in half since you can only turn it on one side, and not flip it.

Finals, Training Camp and Social Media
in S13
The hair looks like a cheap wig in the cameo.
