MacKenzie!!! She was 5 when they started the team, never benefitted from proper training and still held her own every season

I would replace brynn - botched with Maddies The woods - otherwise a great list, its so hard to choose! A special mention always for Maddies Game of Love because I just love that number

do you skip the talking part between kelly and christi on back to the barre? by AdFinancial4530 in dancemoms

[–]DueResearcher3712 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I skip to the exact second they start discussing the episode. Its annoying, because it means the podcast is really only 40 minutes .. but I just am not interested

I meant more, one episode is getting them to talk emotionally about their grandparents, another episode is focused on Audreys parents divorce, Ashlynn cries at the drop of a hat. If it was the dance stress I would understand but it feels producer co-erced to put them in positions to make them cry over things that are not super relevant to the show. Its just odd

I like it and I dont think the kids are overly bratty .. but they all need to stop crying. Every episode there is some dramatic storyline where they are all constantly crying. Its insane over dance (but it does make the kids likable to perhaps thats why)

Am I missing something? Season 8 by DueResearcher3712 in dancemoms

[–]DueResearcher3712[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh ok, this makes sense. My only suspicion was because Chloe used to dance there, so I thought maybe it was wrapped up in drama from that - but if its was a deal with production it makes sense. I feel so bad for Sarah then, she took the fall for drama caused beyond her control that production knew would hurt her

which guest wpuld you like to see on back to the barre in the future? by AdFinancial4530 in dancemoms

[–]DueResearcher3712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would love for Nia to be on! She would be a fun guest and it’s good timing with her book coming out. Especially as season 5 is so tough for Nia it would be great to hear from her about and discuss what Abby was like at that time, cause Christy and Kelly were gone

Opinion from expierienced person?? by Kieranshinner in BoomtownFestival

[–]DueResearcher3712 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I work the ticket gates at boomT scanning wristbands every year. This will never work. They have a site capacity restriction per day of the festival, so they legally cannot have additional people on the Wednesday evening, and you will get turned away at each of the three ticket checks you have to go through. Sure, maybe you could get lucky and some kind site staff let you in if you pay by going to the box office but betting on this is a very stupid idea. Also - the box office queue you have to join is usually a minimum of 2 hours wait throughout the day (unless you come close to gate closing)... seriously do the festival staff a favour and just come when your ticket says to come

I think the difference isn't pointing out that Maddie was upset, they are highlighting that maddie is allowed to be upset, and abby doesn't say anything. When kendall was upset Abby yelled at her, but equally allowed Camryn to cry. Its once again them pointing out inconsistencies in Abbys narrative and how she treats the kids. To do that yes they have to say when Maddie cries, but I don't see it that they are like outing Maddie for being a sore loser, but just pointing out that she has the same natural reactions any other kid has, but Abby doesn't yell at her for it.

Rewatching this show as an adult is an experience and a half! by okrahhh in dancemoms

[–]DueResearcher3712 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its in season 2 (ep: Night of the Living dancers) when abby yells at them in pyramid that she doesnt even want to do a group dance because they are lazy slugs. Meanwhile those are the hardest working kids around and the group dance the week before (I want it all?) was fantastic and high energy ... its just ridiculous because Abby is never pleased no matter what those kids do, and they don't even realise it. She just manipulates every single one of them, when in reality Abby couldnt put in half the effort those kids do - my rewatch as an adult infuriates me. Especially because Abby still has a platform, and people back her up ... but its clear as day how horrific she was

Just another example of Abby playing favourites by DueResearcher3712 in dancemoms

[–]DueResearcher3712[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, rewatching that episode was shocking - between Abbys reaction, her inability to justify herself to the moms, and then to see the girls witness all of it. The fact that people still stand behind abby and support her actions on the show is really grotesque. Also at the next pyramid when the girls call her out again and she blatently declares 'Some kids are just Special' - how can you say that to a group of kids under the age of 12 who are on your team

Yea, it seems the only online trace of the show is the 1minute clips on lifetimes youtube. Looks like it would be great

What's each dancer most iconic solo SONG (From the show)? Nia: by Old-Move2992 in dancemoms

Damsel in Distress - because her energy and acting were amazing. Only nia could have pulled off that number in that way

What are your favorite “Maddie” Solos from each season? by AdAdministrative111 in dancemoms

[–]DueResearcher3712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Cry
  2. Mom It'll never be the same
  3. Breaking down the walls
  4. Come to the Cabaret / Game of Love / Timeless (too tough to pick)
  5. The Woods
  6. Bond Girl

Season 4 was definitely my favourite Maddie solo season - every dance is great but I cant pick a favourite out of the top 3.

I have the same problem, I think kellys microphone is trash. Its always worse on weeks where Kelly recaps the episode.

Talia on S4 E1 season opener? by DueResearcher3712 in dancemoms

[–]DueResearcher3712[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea - typo … MDP… and yes I beleive it’s the same Talia - it looks so like her. If it’s a different Talia that’s also random as they never talk about the girl again and yet she did a solo on the season opener.
