I hope it's a good day. 13 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: We are over halfway through twenty twenty four now, which 14 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 1: is so crazy. Also, I was thinking about this the 15 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 1: other day. COVID was four years ago. Four it feels 16 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 1: like two. 17 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 2: Tell me that I'm wrong. 18 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 1: Tell me like I feel like right now is twenty 19 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: twenty two, Like I did Dance It with the Stars 20 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:53,560 Speaker 1: three years ago. That doesn't feel right. That's crazy. Time 21 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 1: Time literally. 22 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 2: Is a thief. 23 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 1: I know it's a cheeky, cheesy saying, but time is 24 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: literally the biggest thief. And I man, I'm I feel 25 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: so grateful that I get this life like, I really 26 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 1: love my life. I love my people in my life. 27 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: I couldn't imagine life without my people, and I just 28 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 1: I'm a happy girl. 29 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 2: What can I say. 30 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,039 Speaker 1: Anyways, A big part of my life is this little show. 31 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 2: Called Dance Moms. 32 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: I grew up on Dance Moms watching the show, and 33 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: then when I was nine years old, I did Abby's 34 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: Ultimate Dance Competition, which is, you know, kind of the 35 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 1: spinoff of Dance Mom's competition show, and Abby's the judge 36 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 1: and Rich and Her show were also judges, and I 37 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: did that show and then from there I went on 38 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: to Dance Moms for two years, and that was really 39 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: where the world got to know me for the first time. 40 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: And so I feel always super defensive of Dance Moms 41 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: because it is such an iconic show. It is such 42 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: an iconic piece of reality TV history of the dance 43 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,639 Speaker 1: world history. Whether you like it or not, Dance Moms 44 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: did change the dance world. It shaped the dance world, 45 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: and it made some of the most famous dancers in 46 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: the world. Any dancer that touched Dance Moms back in 47 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: the day immediately had a name for themselves. And it's 48 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: such a magical platform that I'm just so proud to 49 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: say that I got to be a small part. 50 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 2: Of and is a massive part of my career. And 51 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 2: I've got nothing. 52 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: I've got nothing, nothing bad to say about the Dance Moms, 53 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: the original Dance Moms, and now we've got a new 54 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: Dance Mom. So we've got Dance Moms of new era. 55 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: It's on Hulu. I have lots of thoughts. I have 56 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 1: lots of thoughts. First thing that I want to say today, 57 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get into the five my five thoughts on 58 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: the New Dance Moms. But if I was one to 59 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: just give an overall review, Okay, I have not finished 60 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: the season, but I'm deep into the season and I'm 61 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: enjoying watching it. But I am enjoying it for quite 62 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 1: some wrong reasons, if that makes sense. 63 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 2: I think that. 64 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: You're gonna get to hear all of my thoughts and 65 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: why I think it's the wrong reasons. But Dance Moms 66 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: is so special that recreating it is almost impossible. But 67 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: I do think in some ways they're actually doing a 68 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: very good job, and I think in other ways it's 69 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,519 Speaker 1: just a little bit disastrous. One of the things that 70 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 1: I want to say before I jump into. This is 71 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: the thing about Dance Moms back, I mean now still 72 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 1: with Dance Moms, but back when I was filming is 73 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,679 Speaker 1: what I'm gonna speak to. We filmed sixty hours a week, 74 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: and that got edited down into forty two minutes, and 75 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: so you only saw the craziest moments. You never saw 76 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: the sweet moments, the wholesome moments, the healthy moments, because 77 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: not to be whatever, but no one wants to watch 78 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: a healthy thing on TV. 79 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 2: It's just not the vibe, right. Everyone wants the drama. 80 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: But there was a proper way of having the drama. 81 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: And I think that the original Moms did a very 82 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 1: good job of doing that and making the drama between 83 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: them and between Abby, and I think that the kids 84 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: alway stayed out of it, and the kids were always kids, 85 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: and the girls were always friends, and we always had 86 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: each other's backs, and that that really I feel like, 87 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: shaped me as a human being as well. And Dance 88 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 1: Moms taught me so much at such a young age, 89 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: so I'm so grateful for it. That's like my little, 90 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: my little preface rant, But now it's time to get 91 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: into my real rants. 92 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 2: Here are my five thoughts on the new Dance Moms. 93 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: Now, first thing that I want to talk about is 94 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: I really respect that they do draw attention and pay 95 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: their dues to the original Dance Moms. They Glow, who 96 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 1: is the dance teacher of the new Dance Moms, gives 97 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: a little bit of a speech to Abby. I guess 98 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: now the problem is here. That's not true, and that's 99 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: something that makes me very upset. Is everyone right now 100 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: is saying, oh, we tried to reach out to Abby, 101 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 1: we tried to get Abby to be involved. 102 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 2: That's not true. 103 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 1: And it's not my position to speak on Abby's behalf, 104 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:03,039 Speaker 1: but I do you know that Glow and Abby were friends, 105 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 1: and then Glow went completely behind Abby's back while doing 106 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: this project, and it was definitely a stab in the 107 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: back to Abby, especially when there was a lot of 108 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 1: different studios that were approached to do this show, and 109 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: all of them, you know, reached out for advice and 110 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 1: to see if it was a good idea, and Abby 111 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 1: did give them advice and said, hey, you should try 112 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 1: to have these be your filming hours. That way you 113 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 1: can still run your studio business after and she she 114 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: did give some good advice to We were talking about 115 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 1: it the other day and unfortunately glow fully just a 116 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 1: bit aborted her relationship with Abby. 117 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 2: And I believe they and I might. 118 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: Be wrong on this, so don't quote me on it, 119 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 1: as every thing press article on America is going to 120 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 1: quote me on this. But they asked Abby to judge 121 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: the last competition episode and that was the only thing 122 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 1: that they asked her to be a part of. And 123 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: what's shady about that is they essentially, I guess, just 124 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 1: wanted her face to be a part of it, and 125 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: she I think Abby deserves a little bit more credit 126 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: than she gets for Dance Moms and creating Dance Moms. 127 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: Obviously she's not the creator of the show, but it 128 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: would it would not be Dance Moms without her, you 129 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: know what I mean, especially in the beginning. So I 130 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: gotta say I appreciate a little bit of attention that 131 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: they drew to it. 132 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 2: In the first episode. 133 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 1: You know, GLO was saying, you all are gonna be 134 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 1: compared to the ALDC and now you're Studio Blue. But 135 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 1: people are gonna hear Junior Leaite team and see a 136 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: pyramid and they're gonna think Abby Lee Dance Company. 137 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 2: And I appreciate that. 138 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: I think that that instead of avoiding it, like it's 139 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 1: an elephant in the room, you know what I mean. 140 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: And they're talking about the pyramid, and they're like, you 141 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: get to do this. We are the second studio that 142 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,359 Speaker 1: gets to compete every weekend, instead of being like I 143 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 1: have a junius idea, let's compete every weekend. Like nah, bitch, 144 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: you didn't come up with that idea, you know what 145 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: I mean. And so I like that they give their 146 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: little bit of paid dues, but hm, I just wish 147 00:06:55,960 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: it was fully truthful their paid dues. I want to 148 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: talk about the kids. The kids are insanely talented. That's 149 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 1: my second thought. They're amazing little nuggets. They are tiny tats, 150 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: They are very young, and they have a lot of 151 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 1: talent in those little bodies, and I am excited for them. 152 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: I'm excited that they get this platform. I'm excited that 153 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: they get to grow their dance careers while being seen 154 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: by the world. 155 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 2: You know. 156 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: I hope that if some of them don't like the spotlight, 157 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 1: they learn how to run as fast as they possibly 158 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: can away from it. But I think they all seem 159 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: pretty good, and I do enjoy watching them dance because 160 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: they are talented little kiddos that I think are going 161 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: to be very successful in life. Now, my third thought 162 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: is also about the kids, and this is a little 163 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: hard to talk about, but these kids, some of them, 164 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: need to be nicer to their moms. They don't see 165 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: how much their moms are doing for them, and it 166 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: really it isn't cute to see. And this is just 167 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: for kids all over the world to take a look at. 168 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: It's not cool to be mean to your mom. It's 169 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: not funny to be mean. 170 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 2: To your mom. You don't look cooler because you're mean 171 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 2: to your mom. 172 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: You look bad and you look not nice your mom, 173 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: or your dad, or your guardian, whoever might be the 174 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: one raising you. I guess this is what I should say, 175 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: whoever's raising you, that person has your best interest, and 176 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:34,559 Speaker 1: especially if they are giving up. 177 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 2: Their life to be on a TV show with you. 178 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 2: And I think that. 179 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: A lot of times that's taken for granted at a 180 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: young age. And I think that some of these kids 181 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 1: need to sit back and be like, wait, wow, my 182 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: mom's actually being really helpful, being really good. And yes, 183 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 1: everyone's mom annoys them at times, and trusts me, kids, 184 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: you annoy your mom's way more often than they annoy you, 185 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: and that's okay. 186 00:08:58,200 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 2: That's how it's supposed to be. 187 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: It's a mother daughter of relationship, it's a father daughter 188 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: relationship with father's son. Human to human, it's natural. As 189 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: long as there's two people in the world, there's gonna 190 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 1: be a little bit of annoyance. And so I think 191 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: that these kids need to grow up, get some maturity, 192 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 1: even though they're very young, they need to mature up, 193 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,319 Speaker 1: and they need to be like, hey, you know what, 194 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: maybe I should be a little kinder to my mom, 195 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: because I think that that's very important. And you won't 196 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: go far in life if you're not a nice person. 197 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: And I think that's a very very important lesson in 198 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: whatever field you choose, whether that's the dance world, whether 199 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: that's being a neuroscientist, whether that's being a golfer, whatever, 200 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 1: whatever you might want to do in this life, you 201 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: gotta be kind of those around you. 202 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 2: Now. My fourth thing that I want. 203 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: To talk about the freaking creative department. The creative department 204 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: on this production team is freaking eating music is eating. 205 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 1: Costumes are eating props are eating themes. The themes are crazy. 206 00:09:58,120 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 2: This season. 207 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: I I'm like entertained, like it gets to the dance 208 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: and I'm like, yeah, the dances go, but then you 209 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:05,839 Speaker 1: see the prop and you see the costume and the 210 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: hair and the makeup, and it's like, dang, they're really 211 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 1: really doing their biggest on this show. 212 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 2: And I don't know. 213 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 1: I don't know who that necessarily is. I don't know 214 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 1: if it's the producers. I don't know if it's Glow 215 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: fighting for certain things. I don't know if Kayley's coming in, 216 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: who is Glow's daughter being like, hey, I have ideas, 217 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 1: but I think that the creative team, when it comes 218 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 1: to the actual numbers, is just doing such a great 219 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 1: job on those dance numbers and those creative numbers. I'm 220 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: very I'm personally, very very entertained. Okay, the last thing 221 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: that I'm here to talk about this this is a 222 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 1: soft spot. It irks me and I talked about it 223 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: a little bit in the beginning, but now I'll go into 224 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 1: some more details. Dance Moms has a very famous quote 225 00:10:55,840 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: said by Abby, and that quote is everyone's replaceable. There 226 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 1: is one human who is not replaceable, and that is 227 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 1: the creator of that quote, Abby Lee Miller. 228 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 2: She's not replaceable. 229 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: And it goes back to my beginning point of they're 230 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: doing a good job of giving their flowers, but not 231 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 1: exactly nothing about the Dance Moms girls, the Dance Mom's cast, 232 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: the originals, I mean, go back to the original original Maddie, Kenzie, 233 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: Nia brook Page, and Chloe. Go back to them and 234 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: their moms Kelly, Christy, Melissa, Holly. I'm gonna Chuck, Jill 235 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 1: and Kendall in there as well. They're not replaceable, they 236 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: never have been and they never ever will be. And 237 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: then you know, add in those who came later, Colonie 238 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: and Kira, my mom and myself, Brinn and Ashley. The 239 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 1: mini is, Yeah, that's something that's never gonna be able 240 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: to be redone. Now you can do a new thing 241 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 1: for sure, but be redone, you're always gonna be compared 242 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,359 Speaker 1: to something that was at the peak of iconicness. 243 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 2: It's never. 244 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 1: It's never gonna match up, you know what I mean. 245 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:08,959 Speaker 1: And so I think that's something that while watching the show, 246 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, it's it's I'm not gonna lie like I'm 247 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: watching I'm tuned in. 248 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 2: I turn it on at night. I want to know 249 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 2: what's happening next. 250 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: I want to know if foot's actually broken like I'm 251 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: really in but I'm like, hmm, You're not Abby, you 252 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: are not Melissa, you are not Maddie, you are not Jojo. 253 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: And I think that that's that's kind of a hard 254 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: thing to watch from somebody who was really in the 255 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 1: Dance Salms world. Is they tried to picture perfect recreate everybody, 256 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: and you're never gonna do that. It's not gonna happen. 257 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think that those are my like top 258 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: five things that I wanted to talk about with this 259 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,839 Speaker 1: new show. I've got a couple more episodes left in 260 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: the season. I'm excited for the finale. I've seen little 261 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: like trailers and clips from the finale and it seems 262 00:12:55,960 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: really good. I will say it was episode three when 263 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: the Medium came in and the conversation. If you if 264 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: you haven't watched it, I would recommend to just get 265 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: to this part. And also the Sabrina Carpenter fight is 266 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: the funniest shit I've ever seen before. It's one of 267 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: the girls just not being very kind to her mom, 268 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: and her mom was like with Sabrina Carpenter, act like 269 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 1: this to her mom, and the girl just goes off, 270 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 1: and like the medium comes in and this is all 271 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: on TV, so you can go watch it for yourself. 272 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 2: But she comes in and she sits. 273 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: Down, and if you haven't seen it yet and you 274 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,679 Speaker 1: don't like spoilers, pause, go watch come back. But this 275 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: is one of my favorite stories from the show this 276 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: season so far, is the medium sits down and she's like, 277 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: right away, I'm getting a mail and a car accident, 278 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: and anybody like, does anybody relate to that? And no 279 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,559 Speaker 1: one says anything, and so then the medium was a 280 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: little thrown off, and she's like, okay, whatever, glow, there's 281 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: some oras around you, like both your parents are gone, right, 282 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 1: and they were talking and whatever. All of a sudden, 283 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: ten minutes goes by and they were talking somehow, and Mina, 284 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 1: one of the little girls, was like, yeah, I have 285 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: a brother. He died in a car accident two years ago. 286 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 2: And everyone was like what. 287 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: And she started to cry because she's this little, tiny peanut, 288 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 1: and of course anybody talking about that would shed it tear. 289 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: And it was just such a shock because no one 290 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: said anything while they were in the medium circle. But 291 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: the medium picked up right away, and I mean, it 292 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: blew everybody's mind. And it turns out that the mom 293 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: just didn't want to talk about it because she couldn't. 294 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 2: You can't, she couldn't. And the brother was only thirteen when. 295 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: He passed, and it just like that was like a 296 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: jaw dropper on set and on the show, and I 297 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: can only imagine the producers and the cameraman being like, 298 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: no way, like. 299 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 2: There's no like, that's you can't make that up. That's 300 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 2: I will say. That is one of my favorite. 301 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: Things about Dance Moms back in the day when I 302 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: was on the show, even now on the day, like 303 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: you can't make it up.

I will say, I'm entertained. 307 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: I'm interested to know, number wise, how the show actually did. 308 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go google that asap. I hope for their 309 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 1: saga did well. I think it'd be fun if they 310 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: did a new studio every single season. I think it 311 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: was fun to get to know these girls. But I 312 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: don't know if I'd be as interested in the drama 313 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: next season. 314 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,359 Speaker 2: But I would be interested. 315 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: In another studio, you know, if it was kind of like, hey, 316 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: this is our formula and we almost want to see, 317 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: like how this studio attacks, the challenge of Dance Moms, 318 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: the challenges, the pyramid rivalries.
