Am I the only one who immediately thought of VK & TK when Maddie was injured? Maddie, blink once if VK & TK clubbed your leg in the parking lot ala Tonya Harding-Nancy Kerrigan in order to secure VK’s spot on the team!

You aren’t alone in feeling this way! I was so bored watching all the clips of the dances I think I’m going to watch them tonight before I get in bed to help me fall asleep.

All I can see is VK & those teeth. Can she physically not bring her lips together?

They probably took 37 this year in case VK gains 15 pounds again in the next few weeks & they have to boot her from performing.

I’m already over this season, & I haven’t even watched an episode.

TPTB are probably canceling practices to have more time to watch this board in order to decide the final cut XP

At this point, most of the TCCs could be cut on the final night, & I’d be pretty indifferent...

I thought vets weren’t allowed to offer corrections now since VK’s precious feelings were hurt. So why would the 2 points sit out to watch if no one is allowed to offer corrections except TPTB?

Does anyone know if this season is for sure going to be the VK show? I thought TPTB would be smart & sneak her onto the team quietly to cause less of a fuss. If this season is pretty much only going to feature VK, I’d like to know now, so I can cancel my recording & not watch.

Does anyone know what Dayton is up to now? I really rooted for her to make the team in the previous seasons, & I know after last season, she said she wouldn’t be auditioning again. Last I saw, she was performing on a cruise ship. Anything new going on with her?

A day later, I’m still fired up about the office visit for VK’s cut. Kelli’s comments about people assuming VK was a shoo in due to her connections & how that was bull clearly illustrate how deluded Kelli was this season. I think everyone here can agree that VK worked hard in training camp. It’s not like she was standing in the corner filing her nails the entire time. BUT ALL THE GIRLS WORK HARD. What people have a problem with is that VK clearly had no respect for the process & her lack of respect & immaturity had absolutely no consequences. She gained 11 lbs in the matter of a few weeks. She should’ve been cut. There was absolutely no way for her to lose that weight in a healthy manner & maintain that weight loss if she gained that much in such a short period of time. “Give her the respect” my ass. Then, she disrespected a staff member, ignored services that the organization generously offered her, & only apologized as an afterthought when she was being reprimanded. She should’ve been cut then, especially if she was caught lying. After that debacle, she butchered her media interviews to the point where Kelli stated she couldn’t trust her to talk to media. When Kelli made the decision that she wouldn’t train/help Taylor with her mistakes, she absolutely should have cut VK for the same reason. Finally, you have the stickers & the office visits. She has 1 sticker. She had 5 office visits. It’s clear that VK worked hard to learn the dances & is passionate about being a DCC, but that doesn’t make her special. Every single girl that tries out works hard & is passionate. VK clearly had the advantage of nepotism that every other girl didn’t. She got away with gaining 11 lbs while Tara was cut for being underwhelming & gaining 10 lbs. She got away with having a horrendous media day while Taylor was cut for the same reason. Based on rumors here, VK hasn’t learned her lesson or matured at all, considering she’s running around her dance classes telling people that she was cut for taking up too much screen time. Kelli did her no favors by softening the blow of being cut. She should’ve put every issue out on the table just like she does with every other TCC. Look at how she talked to Madeline & Kristin. Unfortunately, VK will audition next year, fly under the radar with little to no focus on her/no THs in an attempt to quiet the unrest & still let her on the team. Very disappointed in this season & what this process has become.

IT’S HAPPENING

Judy was looking at Kelli after Tara’s cut like “Seriously!? Tara before VK!?”

After rewatching last week’s episode, I really hope Tara’s cut isn’t an “actual” cut. I hope we see Tara having a discussion with Kelli & Judy about her mental health & all of them coming to an agreement that her remaining on the team isn’t in her best interests. She looked so tired, & you could tell from her talking head after the office visit that she’s going through something that even she can’t explain. She needs to take time to focus on herself, & working as a DCC on top of a full-time job is probably so overwhelming. Judy shrugging her shoulders after Tara left the room & Kelli’s pep talk said a lot about how much they want to keep her on the team. From what I remember, the explanations for her cut always came back to weight, & since we haven’t seen a discussion about weight in her 2 office visits & since she appeared to remain on good terms with the team, I’m praying that it isn’t a “true” cut.

I wish VK would have left home for a year & studied at a university or maybe even traveled abroad. It’s amazing how much living away from home & your parents forces you to mature. She would probably have fit in well joining a sorority, which would’ve done wonders for improving her communication skills. Overall, I think getting away from TK & becoming her own woman by going to a university away from home would have really helped her. Hopefully, she comes back more polished, so we can all feel comfortable rooting for her.
