If Julia did say "Fuck this," then I'd like to compliment her on summing up my feelings about this entire season so succinctly.

Thank you!  Is there controversy with Caroline? I’m getting caught up, but it looks like people were critical of Charolette posting her pick as an example of excellence. Is Caroline related to or friends with Caroline’s family or something?

The fans love her and she has lots of nice comments from her teammates.  

Well I will say that her hair finally looks nice. It actually looks healthy & stylish so whoever did her hair should give her lessons on how to maintain it. Her figure is not bad either although I doubt that she will be able to keep it like this. I mean how many times have we seen vets return between seasons with extra jiggle and either been cut outright or pulled into the office for a talking to about weight? And I could see VK letting herself slide as she gets more confident. Kind of like how Holly P did as she let her weight creep up & started defying the rules because she thought the fact she was such a great dancer made her untouchable. In VK's case, now that she's on the team I can see her getting overconfident because of her ties to Kelli.

Who's group is this and why is every video that I have seen the dances its like they are all just running through them. I felt more power in my stomach this morning after my green smoothie.

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.

No, the comment has to do with Victoria's picture being included in Charlotte's IG.  She wasn't even on the team yet.

Thanks. I didn’t see the other pics- I’m really old-school. I don’t have Insta or twitter- just a FB account that I haven’t opened in a year. SM these days makes me angry.

Where Charlotte gives a look after Melissa saying to she liked Julia.

Also, Seeing Gabby once again, there is legit nothing there to cut her on. Im mad once again ahhaha. Chandi has legit the same body type. Kristin had rolls while doing kicks...and I love Kristin.

This is an outrage.!!!

Julia is gorgeous...Charlotte needs an eye test.

I’m sorry looking at this...Maddie and Hannah and Jalyn are below  people they outdance any day any point. Really those three who are on SG are weaker DCC than Molly, Rachel A, Alanna, Victoria, Brennan, Briana, Daphne, Savannah, Erin, Madeline M, Taylor J? Even Amy , Lexie and  Tess are weaker dances next to those three....like come on. It’s a dance team. 

I’m sorry but I don’t get why you have a scoring system if you don’t use it.  Makes no sense that some girls were cut over others.  Smh

So in watching the episode there were a few things that struck me. First I was really surprised that they didn't show the presentation of the Barbies at the training camp meeting. I know it must have been filmed because at one point they were sitting and there were no Barbies and then there was a cut to Kelli talking and when they cut back to the girls, I could see some of them holding the doll boxes. I was looking forward to seeing what their reasoning was or what they said about VK as they gave it to her.

That personality test was something else. I really think they should have made everyone do it there in the meeting right away. The girls getting to do it in a less-official setting gave them a chance to relax & figure out the best (and maybe not the truest) answer to give. I mean we saw with VK how she was clearly not going with what her real response would be, but rather the answer she figured they wanted to hear.

The scoring thing was interesting to see although it really highlighted how some of the girls made it in by the skin of their teeth. Cough...Kat & Christina...cough! And it showed that all of the judges drank the VK kool-aid because most of them know her history and saw her fall out of her turn at the auditions so logically there should have been at least a maybe or two in there, not yes all around.

In watching the practice I felt so bad for Gina Marie because she was just so out of her depth and you could see it in her eyes. Plus she looked so young next to a lot of the others I actually thought she was going to be cut the 2nd night when they called her into the office.

I actually thought this episode was a little underwhelming. The dancing just kind of blended all together & the guest choreographer wasn't that impressive. Maybe it was just because it was the first episode after the excitement of auditions. Oh well. Onward & hopefully upward!

Savannah looking 🔥 and gettin it! I agree that some of the sideline vids are a little lackluster but I give them more of a break for that...it would be hard to dance excitedly for hours and hours straight. TS is a different story...like get your act together when you're actually center stage.

I rewatched the episode and it confirms for me that Kelli prides herself on “fixing” the girls not already in the top 36 so she can pat herself on the back that she “made” them into top 36.  Maybe it’s ego on her part, or perhaps she thinks it makes good television.  But it seems she focuses on the struggling girls, and she nudges and provides feedback every step of the way, and “oh look - she made it!” All the while several other girls who have been strong from the start (but maybe never top of the class) never hear a peep, and then end up cut the last days of training camp.  She does this every season.

So I’ve watched the most recent episode again and I can’t believe Christina made this team. She should’ve been cut along with Gabby and that other girl from UCLA should’ve gone to TC. How in the world does Christina make this team but Julia Fife doesn’t? That’s some bullshit right there. I’m not a Christina hater.... she’s just not very good. 

I don’t understand either..how do you go from being ranked 27 out of 45 girls and then get cut?

I can think of lots of reasons that don't have anything to do with being an amazing performer. Can't learn/retain choreo fast enough. Had a bad attitude. Did something to turn people off. Turned up late for something.  Bad rumors caught up with you. I'm not saying Julia is any of those, I'm talking in general. It's easy to put on your best face during auditions, but true colors come out during the weeks of training camp.

Interesting...DCC finalist Maddie Dillon auditioned for the New Orleans Saints cheerleaders this year and made finals. IIRC she's back in Texas and on the Legends team this year.

I feel bad for Kristen and I’m shocked they allowed her cameo to look like this!  Look at the tones of her thighs vs calves. It makes no sense unless the pic she posted is just odd lighting?  Looks like her tights are two different shades.

Weird lighting aside, I don't like her cameo or bad reenactment. Her figure is not up to par.

I have this one too! I'm in uniform, lined up with everyone to take the field, thinking "I wasn't at rehearsal, what am I going to do?" When I'm stressed I get that one, and the one where I have a big college exam I didn't study for.

The crazy thing is they are (a tiny bit) bigger now then they were. During the Cassie years the shorts were ridiculous. Look at Brooke and Ally!

@ShellyB do you know why they stopped taking a group photo of the show group each year? Would love to see those again, even if the girls are in uniform and not in the variety show costumes.

And can you tell us if they did photos of each group in uniform this year, like they've done in the past? I would love to see those on social media or the dc website.

I had to watch this, because I think Savannah's dancing is actually the worst on the team. I was so excited to see her be in sync.

I was sorely disappointed because you can only see her. She looked great, but was she chasing the choreo, as usual?

I was equally shocked at her perfect score at auditions.  Do no judges go to the games? Does peformance throughout the season not matter?

Every single video I've seen of her with the squad (and there have been multiple), she has been noticeably off. WTF? How was she not cut? Much less a perfect score.

I just have a few questions/ comments about this year's squad.

1.) Everyone that received a Barbie in this year's TC made the team. Does anyone know how often that happen's? Or even the last time it happened?  How long has it been since these Barbie's have been given out?

2.) A lot of people have commented that Vic was moved to Group 4, but I didn't see anyone comment that Jaylyn was moved to Group 3. I remember Tess posting something earlier this year that she was kidnapping VK, I wonder if that had anything to do with VK now being in her Group. Tess also commented that she knew Victoria would end up in her group. 

They also moved Savannah to Group 2, from Group 1.  Where is Rachel A? Is she injured? Did she even perform with any Group? Is she someone that is just their in case another person get's injured, she can fill in? Just curious.

3.) Some people have commented about the Group Photo's.  Last year they did not post any of the squad photo's until after the last episode of DCC MTT. I also believe that's when the website was updated with all the new cameo pictures.

4.) Kristin's cameo pic only has the lighting on her legs, due to the lighting that was inside the room.  I thought it was strange at first too, but after looking at some of the other pictures, it's how the light's are in the room, not from any camera's.

5.) Savannah look's pretty strong this year, but Christina looks lost. Also, Judy and Kelli have always been very strict on how the lines look during TS and I always wondered why. After seeing this year's video of TS, I know why- the lines look awful!

So I just re-watched the 2nd Thunderstruck video....I hate to pick on her because she seems so loved by her students and her teammates but Amy even standing BEHIND Maddie, Lexie and Tess and NEXT to Gina is OFF. Like noticibly off in counts. This is the third time  now that this h as happened...I know she's the senior most vet, I know she also is responsible for teaching choreo but...how can they make her point  if she's noticibly messing up EVERY performance?

I'm assuming she's injured or something. Shelly said there was a reason why they took 37, so maybe she has something that will keep her from performing during football season. She was at meet the team (but didn't see her performing) since she posted a picture of getting treats from VK.

Did she perform with Queen? She didn't perform in CA, even though she's a member of SG.

They have been giving them out every year since season 8 - at least, that's when I first saw the video of it.

At one time, group 1 had 11 girls and the other groups had 9 or 10, but that was before they did the final cuts.   So they had to move girls around to even out the groups.   And this whole Rachel thing is just weird.  Shelly said we would find out why they have 37.  We might find out more at Thursday night's game or earlier when they post IG stories of practice.

It's like when Miranda was standing next to the spotlights they had set up for Melissa R's Entertainment Tonight interview - some thought she had blonde highlights.  And Lisa's hair and top were a weird color cause of the lights.

A couple of comments and a question....

Kudos to Christina for a lovely kick! (I have to throw in some positive to combat the negative, lol!)

Savannah brings definite sex appeal to the team, even if not the strongest dancer. Plenty of fellows out there appreciate a sexy strawberry blonde. (Heck, my hubby married one, lol!)

Question: Have we determined that Rachel A. was not in TS in either the Meet the Team or pre-season game? Do we know if she is injured, or ....?

But anyways, wasn't that so nice of Jayln to give Kelcey and Shaina the keys to a dance studio? What a wonderful teammate and great ambassador for the organization. I'm sure she'll be repaid in full by K&J (hint, wink *rolls eyes*) UGH... 🙄 #showgroupgate

Yessss! I am all for throwing in some positive!!! Good for you!

Christina also has a lovely clip from her Insta story from the game, and she looks adorable! (Sorry, I wasn't able to copy it) It looks as though she was featured several times on the big screen. Good for her!!
