RockYou August 11, 2019 Share August 11, 2019 Well looks like Lily will make it now that they cut Julia. Again I kinda feel they snub all the DMDs big time. Julia was a doll with tons of pro experience . I forget what experience does Lily have? Just wondering Bc she just doesn’t impress me 3 Link to comment
heckkitty August 11, 2019 Share August 11, 2019 (edited) That has to be a looks based decision. Julia seems to be a great dancer (better than certain other people I could name). @Smplsimon was Julia cut the night they went to IHOP? Edited August 11, 2019 by heckkitty 5 Link to comment

First of all, doing the same thing season after season, going with what feels like the same girls years after year as a team, has grown stale and boring to me. I’m all for livening it up a bit! Also, my 12 year old daughter looks up to Maddie as a much more realistic “girl next door” role model than the typical Barbie doll pin up girl (many of whom have plenty of enhancements to make themselves that way). So personally, I applaud TPTB for putting someone out there that doesn’t fit what is described here as “not pretty enough” for point. Maddie is cute and fun and can dance. I’m excited to see her out front! It's not a pageant glam thing for me re: who gets point. I simply find both Amy and Maddie vanilla dancers. Going by my own years of dance and keeping up on current dance trends, neither pop enough for me. So many people think Maddie is this great hip hop dancer when she's decent but not great. If you watch any current top L.A. hip hip dancers on IG, you can easily see what I'm referring to. Edited August 11, 2019 by go4luca clarity 7 Link to comment

I know Gina has a controversial face and she’s definitely not conventionally pretty, but she’s one of the best dancers on the team, her body is killer, and she gives off a sexy vibe. I know some people think she’s a butterface, but I think she’s a way better choice than Amy or Maddie. I was quite vocal about not wanting Gina for point, but daamn she was robbed. I believe the same for Heather-she is one of the most senior girls, photogenic, powerful even if not consistent enough and a great spokesperson. Then you get Gina who is stronger than both points and on the same level looks wise. How on earth do you end up with Amy and Maddie on point then? And for those who called Heather too vanilla for point, what would you call these two then? 1 hour ago, kalibean said: It’s amazing to me that this year’s team is turning out weak when the deck was totally stacked in DCC’s favor. One of the highest vet return rates, so many of the Mavericks dancers trying out, several returning TCC, etc. I know we’ve got some weaker higher year vets, but other than a select few, they’re all still bringing value to the table, and last year’s rookies were strong. I don’t love VK, of course, but the squad has had worse dancers and I think she’s attractive enough. I personally find her cuter than several vets as long as she isn’t making the surprise face. So how on earth is a week squad happening??? Against all odds... That’s because the upper vets are extremely weak (all 4 of them) and would never get chosen ahead of girls like Melissa/Kashara/Jenna/Erica/Holly. They got lucky and stayed longer than the rest. Then you have the third years who are nice but none of them is the total package. Then you have the amazing 2nd years who probably won’t get their chance to shine and we will lose most of them any way in the next 2 years. And then you have the new rookie class. Sooo is it really a coincidence that the last cuts are all blondes (plus redhead Shaina)? We don’t need competition for VK, right? That would show people that there are other blondes in tc who could dance without risking injuring themselves or teammates. 11 Link to comment

kevinrm45 August 11, 2019 Share August 11, 2019 I've finally watched the second episode and what Kelli said at the very end got me thinking... Why not just rotate Point between all group leaders? Amy, Maddie, Heather, Tess, Miranda, Lexie, Alexis and Gina would get to be Point at one home game each. It might be a bit confusing, but if the DCC is still as world-class as TPTB claim, they could handle it. TL;DR - having the four main and four secondary group leaders be the Point for one home game each allows more women to be featured, gives more variety, gives more reward to being named a group leader and takes a burden off of Kelli & Judy by never having to search for a replacement point when members of the squad eventually leave. 3 3 Link to comment

No. Especially never Miranda at point. Girl has never even been in SG but overall not that great a dancer. Looks old as well (no thanks to Kitty's intervention). If you constantly rotate, even though some are strong enough to handle it, it's never as clean as when everyone has set positions for the season. They then can perfect those positions and muscle memory. Just my take and I already know some here will disagree. 7 Link to comment

Assuming that Caroline, Daphne, and Rachel A are safe because of SG, and Molly seems to be a well liked, strong performer, one might come to the conclusion that either .christina or Savannah was cut. At this point, WDKD? In other words, who does Kitty dislike from the potential vet cuts? She needs to make sure Veruka makes the team, so who will she undermine this year?

Hoping seeing more of the season will change my mind about some of the other rookies but overall, they appear very weak compared to last season's super strong group. Between the rookies and the ridiculous varying point scenario, this season is shaping up to be my least favorite since sInce I began watching (season 1). It's time for a change. A big one.

Just think back a few years; how many GLs were hidden away in the formation? You can’t just suddenly move them upfront without changing all formations and there must be a reason why they were placed there. I would probably go with rotating the girls in the triangle at best. 1 Link to comment

It could be because I am from the rural south and had never seen anything like this (much less a subway). I guess it just made such a definite impression on me. Maybe it's the outfit Maddie wears at her solo. Something definitely just turns me off about her performance of it. 7 Link to comment

It brings in a lot of money and while yes, a lot of girls will shy away from the team solely because of that, we’ve seen an increase in quality even if less people try out. So what? Less than 200 girls tried out last year and the group of rookies was amazing. This year they cut again stronger girls throughout the show and during finals. I don’t blame the show for that-we get to see how biased Kelli is in her decisions, but i’m sure dcc hopefuls would be able to figure that out without the show as well. And just my two cents; without the show, VK would have made it last year despite everything. At least having everything literally on tape means that they try to keep up appearances to a certain extent. 7 Link to comment

If I were looking for girl next door and a powerhouse dancer, Maddie still would not beat out Bridget for me, even though she has seniority. None of the DCC are realistic role models and shouldn’t be viewed as such. They are all very driven and very dedicated to their craft. Many young people can’t relate to that. Being driven and dedicated to your craft should absolutely contribute to being considered a role model. It’s sad to think that there are young people who don’t see the value in that. 2 Link to comment
