Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

SoftInloveRox Horrible, fascist and poorly acted

filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

troywhigham A documentary disguised as a reality show, this program follows select candidates as they wind their way through the audition, selection, and weeding-out process leading up to the first football game for the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, the most famous pro cheerleading team in America (the Raiderettes a close second, followed by the Laker Girls).The first thing that will strike you about the show is how open the girls are about their fears and concerns, and how critical the coaches and selection committee are in determining which candidates survive each round of cuts. When a dancer is called into the office for her evaluation, you will be right there with her, sweating it out as Lisa and Judy critique her performance and tell her what to focus on for next time, if there is a next time for her. There's a reason why the DCC are the best in the business, and this show tells you why.Granted, its not like watching football try-outs or practices, but then it's not supposed to be. Its closer to watching auditions for a chorus line in a major Broadway production. DCC has a "look", just like the Rockettes, and every girl on the squad has to match that "look". Too tall, too big, too thin, too small and she's out. Only 5 years of dance training? She's out. A girl has minutes to learn a complete routine. If she forgets a step, she's out. Criteria are high and the chance for failure is abundant.It's what being a pro-level dancer is all about.

mrbodyboarder I think this show is really great and not sexist at all. It's about making the cheer team for the Dallas Cowboys cheer leading team which is known for having beautiful cheerleaders that are excellent dancers and one of the best organized teams.So what if she didn't make the team for not meeting the requirements? It should not matter the reason; it just means that they have a highly competitive cheer leading tryout. They have been doing this system for a long time so leave the decision to them.I really recommend this show to everyone that is open minded. It is probably best for young adults. If you are a cheerleader/dancer/enthusiast/athlete, then you will definitely love this show! The reason I watch it is because my girlfriend is a cheerleader and she also watches it, we love watching it together!

John Oliver These episodes are packed with beauty and drama. The cheerleaders are obviously beautiful. The unfolding stories of how real the women overcoming obstacles to make it on the team provides engaging drama. Watching these has given me a much greater appreciation for what goes into the making of such a world class performer. There is a long and complex process from open auditions to the first football game. That includes many related parts that spans many weeks. The director did a great job of weaving together dozens of tiny clips in appealing ways. I watched all the episodes of season 3 and 4. Three quarters of the way my attention shifted from the candidates to the leaders. I came to deeply appreciate the difficult and delicate work they do. It was insightful to notice how the different factors go into making the complete package of a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader. You will need to see several episodes to understand what that means. It was amusing to me as a man how the female leaders sometimes called the female candidates by three different terms: girls, women and ladies. This varied widely depending on the person and context. These videos would be recommended for any female considering becoming a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader as well as their family, friends and coaches. It is amazing how unprepared many candidates were. Those who aspire to this job need to witness how hard the weeks of preparations are. Then maybe many will not even try out. And those who do try out will have previously gotten the needed instructions in dance, cheer leading and the other topics that are covered. A coach of any sport could pick up insights into how to draw out the potential from an athlete. Students and practitioners of sports psychology could gain much wisdom and many insights. Cheerleaders and dancers have much to gain in terms of general inspiration and specific tips.

Your Mom I saw bits and pieces of one episode, like 10-15 minutes total, and that was all it took for me to see how sexist the show is and how offensive it is to women all over the world.I did not bother to remember names, but I saw one of the girls cut. The reasoning was that she could never make it because she was overweight. Thing is, this girl was not overweight in the least, she was tall and a little buff, no more than a healthy 150. Not anywhere close to overweight in even the slightest. Furthermore, she was absolutely gorgeous, curves where they should be, no excess fat at all, toned and athletic body. She was hot! Yet they cut her for being overweight.Sorry, but this show needs to get taken off the air. While obesity is a huge problem, for them to spread such falsehoods like 150 and athletic being overweight is completely ignorant, reckless, and offensive.I can say for fact that this is the worst show ever!
