Just watched that Lucid Dream episode.  Poor Viv 😞 . 

I totally forgot about her excuses.  My favorite was when she told Kelli she didn't do the jump splits because she was injured...but then she said she was healed & Kelli said "In the last hour?"  And V: "I'm "constantly" taking yoga" . Kelli: "What do you mean by constantly?"  V: "Every week" . Actually I'm surprised she lasted as long as she did.

HAHA we're watching the same thing.

I think Viv got a raw deal. Her size was a problem on her first season as a TCC and then her dancing. I wish she would have given it another go.

I thought she deserved it.  She was late to her session with Ashton, she was mouthy, had an attitude, etc.  She was "toxic locker room"😂

You can tell Ashton was pissed off at her in that scene for being late and barely even apologizing for it.

It's weird watching these old seasons on Pluto--seeing how the vets helped the rookies--and knowing that NOW, they can't help the rookies or else they'll get in trouble...  😢

Seriously?!

Rumor is that Tara made her skepticism of Icky Vicky known and was shown the door as a consequence.

Also that Jaylen tried to give VK a vet correction and then lost show group. 

Supposedly, the vets are now scared to correct.  

YMMV, but I believe it.

And the excuse for Tara was her own performance? GEEEEZ

So they were never really told NOT to correct?

I think they were told to kind of "lay off" Victoria because she had it so rough last year, and now they're not sure it's okay to help the rookies.

Classic team mismanagement.

I really do think I’m in my own little world where Tara is concerned. I was surprised she made the team because I thought she was a blender with short legs. And then she wasn’t as photogenic as quite a few other gals, and looked a hot mess half the time. 

Clearly good in the locker room, but her cut wasn’t a shock with or without any additional VK drama.

Is Megan B. the one who'd been in the hospital trying to make weight, and that's the real reason her meeting with K&J was so spacey?

No, it was Amy Caroline

Watching season 10, I'd love to know how Kashara made TC with her weight but Katy this year did not.

I truly think where they are heavier matters - Katy and Gabby had extra weight on their stomach which is super noticeable especially on the Jumbotron while Kashara is muscular and seems to gain more in her lower body/all over so can hide it better and still look good in the uniform.

Still watching season 10... forgot how much I can’t stand the “choreographer” who ripped into Angela 

Yes, I agree.  That was for K&J to discuss with her in the office.  Has that "choreographer" been on since?

No. And I’m not even sure why they brought her in in the first place. She was on SYTYCD during auditions, it’s not like she was Top 10/20! Might as well have brought VK in after her cut last season as a choreographer if those are the needed credentials. Although we all know what they always had planned for her...

Completely agree here. Especially because they wear tights, any cellulite or extra chunk can be compressed and hidden. I hold weight in my lower body so when I gain it goes to my thighs but I’ll still have abs. Holding weight in the stomach and muffin-top area can be detrimental for the uniform. Gabby, Cianna, and UCLA Katy all seem to have this problem, unfortunately 😞 

I also think Gabby’s cut had more to do with how many times she had been on WW. Her slimming down for calendar then gaining again probably made K&J think she wasn’t putting in enough effort to maintain her calendar weight

The crappy replacement music they chose for the dance scenes in all these reruns is making them borderline unwatchable for me

The music in 1 and 2 wasn't changed - cause if they took out "are you friend or foe" or "all you crazy people c'mon jump around" - it just wouldn't have been the same:)

Was just looking through instagram and got to thinking, how old would Holly Powell be now?

22 going on 23? I think, not sure when her bday is but she was 18 when she made the squad in season 10. She was 20 when she quit in season 12 which was 2017.

I think she was on again in season 12.

Except Kashara's waist looked wide.  But when they had uniform fittings, her size was "M", which I think was explained to us to be a size 4, so she couldn't have been "big" at all.

I was over her by the time she was cut from her second TC.  I really pulled for her in the first one, because I like her story and her dancing was great (once you got rid of Tin Man ...oi) ...she was just "stocky".  That second season, however, she seemed more concerned about how she looked in the mirror than how she was dancing.  (shrugs shoulders).

No, she did not.

Holly's birthday is in January 1997 I believe so she's 22 turning 23

It's probably why they didn't do the fan vote again.

Watching season 12 when Jenna throws Holly under the bus. Ohhhh man, I feel second hand embarrassment watching both of them back pedal.

I had a negative first reaction to Colby but I changed my tune when I saw her on the show. She seemed like a nice girl 😞

It was so bad. And any/every time I say something was so bad, in my head it's in the voice of John C. Reilly in the Stepbrothers bunk bed scene.

I feel like they should have just admitted their wrong doings and they would have been fine. K&J already knew the truth and still didn't kick them off. I wish Holly wouldn't have quit, she probably would have been point bu now.

I seriously doubt Holly quit voluntarily. She made it abundantly clear that her heart and her life was with DCC. So, something else must have happened that we have not been told ☹️

Curious what makes you say that (serious question.)

I honestly thought the DCC was just a pit stop on her way to bigger and brighter things.  For a small town, southwest Missouri girl, Dallas is a much friendlier stop for an 18 year old.  I can see her parents pushing her towards gaining some experience in Dallas first, then heading to LA or NYC.  And that might have encouraged that via financial support.

Just her reactions when she was on the hot-seat and her interview with the CMT cameracrew .. but then again .. it's only assumptions based on thin air 😎🤣

From what I recall of the forum scuttlebutt at the time, Holly did intend on staying, but her mother got in her ear. Basically, the insider said that Holly’s mother convinced Holly that she was the best dancer on the team (probably true) and that Kelli would back down on punishment if she threatened to quit. Well, Kelli didn’t back down, and Holly ended up quitting a couple days later. Again, all just rumor on here around the time it happened. But it seemed to be pretty accurate with how it ended up playing out on the show.  

In fairness, she was. If you’re basing it on true technique and showmanship, she had it all. If she’d have stayed/not got in trouble, she would’ve been point after Jenna. Kashara wouldn’t have been in the running considering her 3rd year was her first in SG and she got point in one fell swoop!

So I’ve been binge watching the earlier seasons on Pluto TV and there is so much cringe!! I was watching one episode where the girls were on a retreat, and 6-7 girls were standing in a line with their backsides to a sketch artist while the artist sketched their bottoms.

I'm just now catching up on this thread (I'm mainly a lurker for the spoiler page, but like y'all I'm binging the Pluto channel). When I first read this comment, as a Dallas native I was like "ooooh, I kind of want to point out that this is actually a 'thing' here, that there is a company called The Original Butt Sketch that has an entire team of artists who are hired for corporate events and weddings and retreats much like one would hire a caricature artist except instead of a cartoony version of you in a go-cart, it's your backside and there is always some cutesy phrase written in like 'the best days are ahead' or 'cheers to the years behind us'.  (Can you tell that we have a few of these in our house? Look up the sketches online, the ones in formal wear really do look awesome and are fun + different mementos.) So the girls aren't necessarily being skanky and/or the artist wasn't being a huge perv by asking them to turn around; really the DCC organizers of the retreat brought that artist in specifically for that purpose.

BUT as I started typing this, I'm now thinking 'that scene hasn't aged well, and if you didn't know any of the backstory (see what I did there) of course it looks horrible.' (And side note: I'm also wondering how that business is doing in 2019.)

Every time I see Kalyssa I get super annoyed at her. She was the whole package and just didn't seem to appreciate her DCC experience. 

Yeah, she wanted to become a nudist instead. The girl is trashy. Have you seen her Instagram? Get over your daddy issues Kalyssa and put some clothes on! 

I'm currently watching season 4. Ugh the body fat scan was ridiculous. Way to give perfectly shaped women a complex.

Remember that scene where they were doing those assessments and they were saying all the cheerleaders needed to be under a certain body fat percentage and then the camera pans over to a chart on the wall with that number that says that something along the lines of "risky low body fat"? Imagine if they showed something like that today. I've noticed they've been a lot sneakier in recent seasons about saying any actual numbers because they're so low.
