chabelisaywow October 10, 2019 Share October 10, 2019 I would love to see training camp with the candidates more "fresh faced." I know on the field they have that huge board - but even then, do they need to be so shellac-ed? 10 Link to comment

Seasons remaining - the remainder of Kelli’s career plus two. Jumped shark moment? It may not have happened yet. Hard. I’d say either the pre-bikini shoot Cowboys Fit segment with the hottie trainer -or- Victoria’s mascara running down her face onto Kelli’s garment (ok, I don't know that Kelli got any on her, but I was afraid of it).

ByTor October 10, 2019 Share October 10, 2019 My jump the shark season was the one with the current 3rd years because of the "all hail The Sacred Star!" crap. Also, they took 2 who obviously (obviously to me anyway) wouldn't last (Kalyssa & Alexandria) instead of Taryn & Brennan. So I guess I can say that my show irritation is when people who should not make the team do for the sake of drama. More dramatic cutting Brennan again than boob-shaking Kalyssa or eyelash emergency Alexandria. 10 Link to comment

I legit thought Kalyssa would stick around a couple seasons before heading to The Bachelor or other influencer opportunities. Things for sure took a turn with that one! Alexandria one and done for sure, so disappointed she bailed so quickly tho. I was watching that season on Pluto and was like how did they cut anyone? So many good rookies that year. Would have kept Taryn and Brennan over Christina tho. All day and twice on Tuesday. Edited October 11, 2019 by kalibean 1 5 Link to comment

The thing I don't like, though, is her mentoring certain girls AND being a judge. That could lead her to not picking who's the best, but picking a pet project or two who would make a good storyline for her.

Nene April 24, 2020 Share April 24, 2020 Given the current Coronavirus situation, I would think this would be GOLD for the producers of DCC: MTT! What a great way to refresh it and get everybody interested in it again - do a 4 or 5 episode special season intro about the unique challenges AND opportunities that the #COVID19 quarantines and social distancing posed in the audition and tryout process, with a MUCH deeper dive into that process than we've seen in the past, THEN pick up from the Training Camp announcements as usual and go through TC, including, if needed, how TC and the start of the season was/will be impacted by the Coronavirus quarantine delays on events. 3 Link to comment

I agree that this is a chance to refresh the show by presenting something different, but in all honesty, if they were to spend even one whole episode about how the DCC was affected by this, I think they would anger their fans. They would come off as out of touch - a cheerleader squad having to change their audition process is no big deal compared to how others were affected. 1 5 Link to comment
DizzySometimes86 April 27, 2020 Share April 27, 2020 For the new virtual auditions: What I would like to see is them asking rookies who made it into training camp how many times they filmed themselves before finding the "perfect" one to submit. I wonder how many would low-ball the number! I also noticed that the DCC website doesn't give tips on what makes a "good video" in terms of lighting/angles/videography, so maybe the normal questions that the judges ask on the floor, like how they feel, could be more centered on the video-ing process itself. 1 1 Link to comment

Triangle placement (I liked that this past year they showed them asking guest choreographers who they thought would make a good point!)

Lexusprincess May 3, 2020 Share May 3, 2020 I would like to see panel interviews with Kelli and Judy questioning some of the vets who have continually traveled and had friends over during this pandemic about being tone deaf to the pandemic going on and Texas sheltering at home then posting about it. Taylor T. got booted out of training camp for being tone deaf on "Me Too" and did not make it back last year. I certainly agreed she was an appearance risk. Meanwhile lots of vets are going home, traveling around etc. I understand if a DCC went home to shelter in place with their parents and stayed there. However at a certain point the country was asked to refrain from unnecessary travel especially on planes. Heather, who I really liked and is not returning, has posted flying to Arizona with Bridget and the two of them with their boyfriends traveling across Arizona. Those two are not the only ones. We have also had three of them post working out pictures together that do not live together. Many young girls look up to the DCC and they should be setting an example not trying to get around the rules. 9 Link to comment

I think Christina was the only one whose job was shown last season, in the cheesy scene with retired vet Danielle, in an office with absolutely NOTHING ELSE in it.

Melissa wasn't even that great as a DCC. She didn't seem to grasp the concept of traveling across the floor/field, Kitty (or someone) called her whiny a couple of times and she just never really stood out. There are other DCC alumni and All Stars who would be MUCH better mentors and coaches than Melissa, Sarah Gourley Idziak, for example, or Jennifer Colvin, who taught some of her choreo this past season. I've also thought Melissa is pretty snotty and downright mean when she talks about the ladies who audition badly or who don't fit the DCC look in the first few rounds. I've also often had the thought that Judy isn't the biggest fan of Melissa and her role. There was a famous moment with Maddie in her rookie season when Melissa told Maddie to smile more and Judy said to Melissa, "So THAT'S why we brought you in! As the smile coach!" and the sarcasm was EPIC. 1 4 Link to comment

Either get the rights to the actual music that goes with the routines or match appropriate music to the routines. STAHP with the Star/Cowboys product infomercials. It's awkward and embarrassing. Show more of the individual group rehearsals and the rookies-only and/or vets-only rehearsals. Show more of the events that the SG and other DCCs do in the off season. Film and show the post-game victory celebration song and dance that the DCC does in their locker room. Film and show a whole training camp session.

Show more of the individual group rehearsals and the rookies-only and/or vets-only rehearsals. Show more of the events that the SG and other DCCs do in the off season. Film and show the post-game victory celebration song and dance that the DCC does in their locker room. Film and show a whole training camp session. Refresh the audition judging panel (not a show thing but a DCC thing, I know.) I love Neal McCoy as a singer but Neal is 61 and him leering over girls who are young enough to be his daughter or granddaughter is getting kind of creepy. I'd never heard of him until I started watching the show (he's not big in the UK) but found him creepy from the off. 1 Link to comment

She didn't seem to grasp the concept of traveling across the floor/field, Kitty (or someone) called her whiny a couple of times and she just never really stood out. There are other DCC alumni and All Stars who would be MUCH better mentors and coaches than Melissa, Sarah Gourley Idziak, for example, or Jennifer Colvin, who taught some of her choreo this past season. I've also thought Melissa is pretty snotty and downright mean when she talks about the ladies who audition badly or who don't fit the DCC look in the first few rounds. I've also often had the thought that Judy isn't the biggest fan of Melissa and her role. There was a famous moment with Maddie in her rookie season when Melissa told Maddie to smile more and Judy said to Melissa, "So THAT'S why we brought you in! As the smile coach!" and the sarcasm was EPIC. I can't stand her...and I try to not say anything terribly negative about people. She's just snotty, whiny and mean. When she made the snarky comment the "bad ones are my favorites"....she really nailed her coffin shut with me. Of course they are...that way you can make fun of them. She just really peeves me off. I don't like seeing her as a judge...I don't like seeing her as a mentor, and I didn't like her as a DCC. She was MEH at most. I think Sarah Idziak and Jennifer Colvin would be MUCH better mentors for these girls!!! 🙂 2 Link to comment

Yeh....it is getting creepy. I know they want to see who/what look appeals to men...but Neal needs to keep the "she's hot" comments quiet. He could simply say "I can see her as a DCC" like the other males on the panel. 2 Link to comment
