I think that's a dumb reason not to advance someone considering lots of people have made it into training camp with low kicks. 

Trying to remember the episode .... when asked there was more hands for no than yes ... and Kelli was a yes it looked like the guys were a no

Kelli and Judy should have NEVER taken both sisters into TC. In their interviews you could tell they were more concerned with their pageant duties than the DCC.

I agree!  I always wondered why they took them into training camp to begin with.  They didn’t “take someone’s spot” TPTB gave them away to those girls!  K and J were more to blame than the sisters, I think.

Yes, I saw one yesterday where they called a girl into the office to tell her that she was struggling. She obviously agreed because the next episode, she had dropped out of camp. Judy was mad that she "took someone's spot." But it seemed pretty obvious they were going to cut her soon anyway because she didn't have power or whatever. So it just seemed like Judy was mad she quit before they could cut her.

I mean, at any given time, they take 8-10 more girls than there are roster spots, so it's not like if they picked someone else, they'd end up with a squad of 45 because everyone was good. Some people don't fit in for whatever reason, but man, they get mad if you recognize it before they get a chance to cut you.

Are you talking about that Megan girl who told K&J she was dropping out of TC because she had to concentrate on her Anatomy & Physiology class over the summer?  That was hilarious, it was SO obvious they were offended that she did it before they could cut her!

Maybe Kelli wanted to have 1 or 2 beauty queens on the team. The same reason they probably chose Kat because she was a rhythmic gymnast.

I think the one I saw was Christina but I don't really remember anything about her except she was blonde. Maybe season 5 or 6? But it was like, you're not good at this. And she was like, good call, bye. Judy was so mad!

Season 6 (2011-2012) Christina Marie.  Same rookie group with Emma, Holly H, Amelia, Mackenzie and Angela...

It was obvious that she was pulling a "you can't fire me, I quit" card.

I disagreed with them that the boots swallowed her legs, they've had people her "heighth" (tm Vivian) on the squad & the boots looked fine (Briana, Kelli Q immediately come to mind).  Maybe the issue was more that her legs were thicker & more muscular.

I, too, rock the smaller side of "heighth," so if I was 20 years younger, 20 pounds lighter, and actually had dance talent enough to make it to training camp, I would have 100% tried to also rock these in my boots (at the very least, during cameos) 😂

His Instagram has toned down a lot recently and I wonder if someone said something to him about it. I know there was one woman calling him out on doing her dirty last year on it. He posted Lots of pics of partying and drinking on boats with bikini clad women and a few cheerleaders in the past (Schram was one I believe) He thinks he’s Dan Blizerian lol. Ask around DFW, it’s no big secret.

Rewatching the season reminded me of Kelli and Judy’s three big knocks against Gina: She didn’t seem to be a team player, she “looks like the Joker” when she smiles, and she looks “like she’s doing a different dance from everyone else.” I know there are several posters who agree with all three — I just didn’t remember those criticisms were made on the show. Now I definitely think the last two is what’s keeping her from point.

Gina has pop but she is not classically photogenic. Compare her to Queen Rachel and the differences are obvious. Rachel doesn't seem to take a bad game day picture.

Watching season 2 finals ... Miranda should have been given a shot over Megan.  They already knew she could not handle the dance ... I still think something else was going on that they constantly passed over her 😞

Re: Miranda.   I’ve always wanted to know what was going on there. After 1 of her auditions Charlotte was talking to her, but obviously not one of Charlotte ‘s faves or she would have been brought on to training camp    I’ve never understood the point of that vanity and picture prop she used during 1 finals   You have 90 seconds, and wasting 25-30 for that beginning    Her story is my favorite “ unsolved mystery “

I felt bad for Miranda. I always thought it was interesting when, in a later season when she tried out again, Jay said something to the effect that Miranda wouldn’t blend in with the DCCs, or didn’t look like the other girls, something along those lines. I thought it was really odd comment.  I always thought she was a pretty girl and had a good body, but maybe her dance skills weren’t up to par.  But Jay saying she doesn’t “look” like the DCCs was just weird. Right after he says it, the camera cuts away and they move onto someone else pretty quick. 

I'm guessing she didn't have the DCC look to the judges. Probably the same reason they never chose Courtney Krauss (former DSIG & current Patriots cheerleader) for TC.

I recall Miranda saying she was a Kilgore Rangerette and had awesome kicks back in the day. They should have at least gave her a shot in TC; if she didn't make it so be it.

Yeah, they show Charlotte HUGGING her in season 1 after she doesn't make it finals? or TC? Which is just so odd looking now 14 seasons later. I mean, I wouldn't assume auditioners are allowed to TALK to Charlotte much less touch her these days, but they seemed to know each other. But as you say, obviously not enough to get her to the next round when her friend did make it. 

I also wondered about her friend Cerisa quitting after a week of TC. Like if I'm Miranda and my BFF made camp, but quit after a week, I'd be so mad at her. Apparently Cerisa had an injury, but we never saw her at auditions again (that I recall?), so I wonder if that was the real story.

This was never stated but I always got the feeling that Cerisa quit because Miranda didn’t make TC. Miranda seemed devastated not to make it. I often wondered if Cerisa felt so guilty, and felt it wasn’t worth losing a friendship over, so she dropped out. I mean, she didn’t even tell K/J that she was injured. I really think Cerisa had the DCC look. I could see her making the team if she was a great (not good!) dancer, had great social skills, and awesome high kicks.

I don't know:)  I think if Cerisa had handle the situation with her injury better.....she could have come back next year.  Or she could have done what Deryn did, and continue with TCC under a DCC doctor's care.

Yea...that’s why I question if she was really hurt. If she wanted to be a DCC so bad, she could of told K/J and did what Deryn did. Or, heal and come back next season. But, she did neither. Miranda just took not making training camp so hard. What did she say...she was the ‘almost’ girl....anyway, just my theory that Cerisa bailed b/c she felt so bad/guilty about Miranda so she decided not to finish out training camp. Like I said...my theory only.

I'd always felt as though Meghan was entitled and immature - I think she had a lot of other awesome qualities, but that kind of attitude was always going to keep her from being a DCC.  I empathized with how hard she took her last cut though - I know it must have been so hard to see her friends all around her make it, and never be able to get there herself.

Taylor should have seen she wasn’t going to make it when they didn’t give her a dcc hairstyle 🙂

When they were at Six flags talking to the all stars, I never paid much attention before when the all stars were giving advice and the first 1 says be a teammate and lift each other up, which made me wonder which ones had been out for themselves and made bad teammates 

side note- I hate the canned “cheering”. I know they hve to dub for rights and all, but it just doesn’t match up

After 14 seasons, I think we all know that making it to TC (for a second, third time...) does NOT guarantee you a spot on the team. I personally don’t think they should of taken Meghan into training camp in season 5. They knew her past...memory mistakes, slower to pick up dance steps. The only reason I can think that they took her into TC for the third time was 1) Meghan had been training with Kitty and Kitty felt she was ready/able to make the team or 2) for the drama. Sure hope it wasn’t for the second reason. 

I agree. I’m sure it was super hard for her to be passed over while everyone around her became a DCC.

I'm so upset 😭 I've missed the first episodes of season 8 every single time. I assumed s8 would start today but when I came back it was on the 4th episode. Missed it again wtf

Does anyone have some sort of "guide" to when the episodes come out? This guessing game aint working for me

The way TCCs describe the critique they got on their dance in their talking heads always cracks me up.

Kelli: "You're really stiff"

TCCs be like (to camera): "They said I was just a teeny weeny itsy little bitty bit too stiff"
