Dance moms rewatch: Night of the Living Dancers (s2/e15)

Place: Energy Dance Competition in Chicago

• Abby said the girls are sluggish and boring....so we're starting off great 😬

• pyramid!

Chloe

Nia, Brooke

Paige, Mackenzie, Maddie

Reasons: Maddie because she didn't dance. Mackenzie because she got 10th. Paige because she forgot a step. Brooke because she gives Abby 🤏 "this much". Nia because she showed responsibility, she quit fooling around and she didn't have to hear her mouth all day long. Chloe because she did her solo...but Abby wants more

• Mackenzie and Nia have a duet

Paige has a solo

Brooke has a solo

Chloe has a solo (called Unchained)

Group routine (called Glam) is about zombies , because the girls are "lazy and lifeless"...WELL OK ABBY WHAT ARE YOU?

• Melissa is complaining that Maddie is on the bottom of the pyramid and that "she didn't deserve to be there. Because she said she wasn't doing a dance and she wasn't prepared"....then why was she still rehearsing her dance Melissa? She was prepared

• Paige is doing Tongue Twister, it's acrobatic. She did that routine a year ago and it was never finished

Brookes solo is called Paint the Picture and it's acrobatic lyrical. She's supposed to make pictures with her body

Abby tells Kelly to take Paige's chair home tonight to get what she can done with to it. It needs rubber stoppers. She also wants Brooke to take voice lessons from the woman who works there

• Melissa is kissing butt again. "All the other kids is running out when it's ready to leave and I have to drag my daughter out by her hair" and now she wants her to have a little time with Abby and have a private. Because "she was better than everyone else in the group". EXCUSE ME?

• Mackenzie and Nia's duet is called Circus Circus and is acrobatic. Mackenzie will be a lion and Nia will be the lion tamer

• Brooke is taking lessons and....please do not tell this child TO SING THROUGH HER NOSE

• awwwww the moms helping Holly with the group costumes

• Kelly forgot about the prop and didn't get stoppers

Abby is freaking out over stoppers and threw the chair. Kelly said "fuck you abby" and now Abby is all like "Paige doesn't that embarrass you", she does not care

Kelly fights tooth and nail for her girls, I wouldn't care about the language either

Kelly got a point too. If Abby came to her, she could explain why she didn't have stoppers at the moment. Because she's doing Abby's job and making the costumes

• the iconic STOP EATING, THATS WHY YOU'RE FAT!

• Brooke and Paige are going to walk in with Holly and Nia

Melissa said Clara and Mackenzie would have fun on the grass outside the studio...as if she didn't know there was grass behind the studio

• Chloe's solo is called unchained and it's a lyrical

• Melissa is bawling because "Maddie loves Abby so much". Maddie walked out because that's embarrassing. Melissa is now throwing the kids under the bus. "Well Chloe rolls her eyes all the time. Chloe leaves class early all the time". Now she's snitching on Kelly because apparently she called her saying Christi was taking Chloe out of school early to go to the doctors and is taking her to the movies. But all the moms are jealous! All of them!!!!

Funny how it's "they're all jealous of Maddie" when it sounds like Melissa is real jealous of Chloe

• Melissa said "my daughter is 9, not 18 so she can't make her own decisions" and now she's in the restroom coursing Maddie to be bubbly like Paige and say how she "wants to do the solo and show how great it is". Blah blah, she doesn't have a solo Melissa. FUCKING STOP

MELISSA GO AWAYYYYYY....well Maddie is dancing. NO SURPRISE

Kelly has arrived and is confused as to why Maddie has a solo. SAME HERE!!!!!

• Paige and Brooke didn't do their solos. I don't blame them. If Abby paid attention to their solos more, they would've been ready

• Chloe's solo (Unchained) is up. The costume is and the hair...it goes with the theme

She did amazing. She didn't second guess herself and went out with confidence. She did wonderfully

• Maddie's solo (In My Heart) is up next. Costume is cute, still

The music skipped. OH YEAH, it was intentional. But you know, let's pretend we didn't know and OH WHAT A PROFESSIONAL!!! 🙄 wish I could judge it with the solo music just fine. But no, they wanted her to win and made it look like she "didn't know it was happening". I'm sick of the games.....and then everyone clapped 🙄🙄🙄

• solo awards!

Chloe: third

Maddie: second

• Mackenzie and Nia's duet (Circus Circus) costumes, THEY'RE ADORABLE OMG

Please, they're just so cute!!!! I agree with Holly, they did fantastic. I'm so proud of them!

• group dance (Glam) is up next. They look fabulous!

They did amazing. I just realized Chloe's feet, GIRLLLLL FANTASTIC!

• petite duet awards!

Mackenzie and Nia: first

Small group!

Group: first

• ah shit, is it going for go down? Why is Abby yelling? Also why is she bringing up that she was in the hospital when her husband ran over her kids foot? Which kid and how old?

[psycho-dancemoms]

Dance moms rewatch: The Battle Begins (s2/e14)

Place: NexStar competition in Los Angela's, CA

• Abby is late to pyramid, by "a good 30 minutes or so", according to Melissa

She congratulated Chloe on her win, but sounds depressed

Abby admitted to leaving and being upset because Maddie forgot her dance

Kenzie is plugging her ears and Abby yelled "some people are just special"

• pyramid:

Chloe

Mackenzie, Maddie

Brooke, Nia, Paige

Reasons for placement:

Paige because of the prop "got away from her" on stage. Nia because she wore a biketard to rehearsal and had to pull it down a few times. Brooke because she didn't wear pointe shoes....but I didn't see anyone else wearing them as she claims they were. Maddie because she ran off stage and "you should be on the bottom of the pyramid but you're the responsible one for everyone"...WHAT? Mackenzie because of her charisma and her face that "moves the audience". Chloe because she won

• solos!!!!

Chloe

Mackenzie

She entered a solo for Maddie, but "she can't do it. She needs to get her head on straight"

Trio!!!!!

Chloe, Brooke and Paige

Group!!!!!

It's called "I want it now" and will feature Chloe

....in Abby's words, it's pretty much about a rich brat that says "I want that, I want that, I want that" and that's what she's going for

• dang, Chloe didn't get her arms right once in rehearsal and now Abby is "scared Chloe can't lead" and "wishes Maddie had her head back in the game".....BUT SHES NOT PLAYING FAVORITES 🥴

• BROOKE AND CHLOE MATCH!!!!!

• the moms talking about "I never seen someone so happy about 9th place. WHOOP, WHOOP"

• Taylor is back at the candy apples. Yay, but I don't care. I guess they're going to stall then to LA too?

• Chloe's solo is a lyrical contemporary dance called "Keep Burnin'"

She looks so precious rehearsing 🥺

"Let's hope she doesn't forget it", shut up Abby

"You can't go on stage and forget the dance if you want to be a professional", why not say that to Maddie too?

• Melissa threw the moms under the bus when they said if Abby made you upset, tell her. So all the moms confront Abby and she said to Gianna "dial 911". What a big ol baby

• Mackenzie's solo is called "Perfect Fit"

It has a ton of tricks and Mackenzie loves it. She's so cute!!!

• the trio is modern jazz and is called "Girls In The House"

I was wondering why Maddie is in the room. Of course it's to "demonstrate" how to do the moves "properly" and now she's having Maddie count Chloe's steps and "watch her" because she's "watching Paige" 🙄

"It's really hard watching Chloe be on top of the pyramid. I'm really happy for Chloe, but it just, like, feels weird to me, 'cause I don't have a solo"....ok Maddie so it's hard to see Chloe be on the pyramid because you don't have a solo? Make it make sense

• Abby has Paige, Nia and Maddie sit in the room to watch Chloe's solo rehearsal and critique her

....Maddie looks bored

Nia said she doesn't feel right by judging Chloe because she's her friend and if her friends had to do that to her she would be very uncomfortable. AWWWW 🥺

• Chloe's hip started hurting her when she was rehearsing the group dance. Christi went down there to give her some ice and a little pep talk on if something hurts, don't be afraid to open her mouth and say something

• Maddie is rehearsing her solo from last week, why? I'm not sure. Since she doesn't have a solo this week. Of course watching her "makes her want to see it on stage", OF COURSE ABBY. She also wants her to "be ready for anytime, anywhere". How about when she gets her solos back and not throw her in this week, like I feel she might

OH CONVENIENTLY MADDIE STILL HAS A SOLO IN THE PROGRAM. I KNEW IT 🙄

Maddie wants to do it next week, Abby keeps pressuring her to do it. JUST SCRATCH IT

• trio is up first (Girls In The House). Why is Brooke and Paige wearing the tops that Brooke and Chloe wore in rehearsal? The outfits don't look like much thought was given to them

I really liked the dance. They did great. Even Maddie was in the audience smiling while watching them. Abby on the other hand was t watching, she had her hand over her face. Aww Paige forgot a kick. THEY DID SO GOOD THOUGH

• little Mackenzie is up next. Her costume (If The Shoe Fits) is so cute

She looked so adorable. Sadly she slipped on her sleeve and then forgot her dance. What's up with the kids forgetting this season? It tumbled down quick. Maybe, just maybe, if they had more time than 4 days to learn multiple dances...I'm just saying

Poor Kenzie she's crying and had to run off because she ended up hurting her leg. Of course Abby is coddling her, like she did Maddie. She's just not crying too

Annnd back to "Maddie you're doing your solo!". But Maddie isn't comfortable and sounded like she was going to cry when she turned it down. If any other kid said "I'm not doing my solo", all hell would break loose

• Maddie was called on stage. She tried getting up and running up there, but now she's sobbing in the crowd

• Chloe's solo (Keep Burnin') costume is absolutely beautiful

She looked so beautiful. The dance was just, ugh, I don't know even know how to describe it. It was really amazing, she did amazing

• group dance up next. She's yelling at the girls and Melissa interview is hilarious. "I think she knows it's...watered down". Hahaha

Of course, she tells Maddie to be the leader and that she's "not a top ten dancer, she's a top three dancer and if she did her solo, her name would be up there". I mean, way to only have confidence in one kid.....

• group dance (I Want It Now) costume is just, adorable!

They were so cute, of course they were! It was entertaining to watch. I really liked it

• solo awards!

Mackenzie: tenth

Chloe: fifth

Duo/trio awards!

Brooke, Paige, Chloe: third

Group awards!

I Want It Now: fifth

• Abby is complaining and said that Mackenzie is the only student to receive an overall first place award....for what????

Christi trying to get the girls out the room is precious. Protecting the girls

Abby got called stale, which in comparison to the other dancers....yeah. That's kinda why she uses the same moves in every dance and can't teach the girls anything else except "what they're good at"

[psycho-dancemoms]

Dance moms rewatch: Abbygeddon (s2/e13)

Place(s): New York, NY/Starbound Competition in Paramus, New Jersey

• pyramid:

Maddie

Brooke, Nia

Chloe, Mackenzie, Paige

The reasons are: Paige was on her phone, Mackenzie's shimmeys were "making the other two look like idiots, because you didn't tel them beforehand", Chloe forgot a piece of her solo, Nia danced through her foot pain, Brooke...abby wants more and Brooke said in her interview she wants to give her more but she spends all her time with the other girls, Maddie "picks up quickly so she's up top"

• Abby wants them to look like ballerina and to "not embarrass her". On top of the audition in New York, they'll be doing a dance at Starbound in New Jersey

• Abby explaining the group dance will be about each girl in jail, they're gonna be jailbirds

• Chloe and Maddie are doing solos

• ah fuck, Cathy "found out" about the open auditions and will also be going to Starbound

I honestly forgot Kendall was there, whoops

• "I hope their mothers keep their mouths closed"

Ooohhhh Abby, do I have news for you. They aren't the issue 😬

• Chloe's solo is contemporary, she's going to be the red queen and she's so exited! It's called the Queen of Hearts

• Maddie's solo is a lyrical dance, called In My Heart and she loves the dance and song

• ughhhhhhh, Cathy. "We have every right to be in the exact same places as Abby". Gosh Cathy, obsessed with Abby much? 🙄

• Joffrey solo auditions!

Paige: why does Abby have her doing acro for a ballet audition?

Brooke: more acro......

Nia: MORE TRICKS?! She did the death drop, ADORABLE

Mackenzie: MORE FUCKING ACRO

"Tell whoever told you to shake your bum-bum like that, that they are a dumb-dumb"

"Hey, Abby taught me to shake my bum-bum; and I shake it pretty well"

Cathy's kids: meh. But they're right, did she really need that much makeup for a ballet audition?

Kendall: just like the rest of the candy apples...meh

Chloe: she has the ballerina look. Her turns are beautiful. "Your natural, god given ability is fantastic. It's wonderful. You really have something special". I couldn't agree more judge! "Just please get into more ballet classes"....I really wish she did, but Abby would never 😔

Maddie: I'm sorry, I was not mesmerized. Leg up on the floor, I thought she was doing her cry solo for a moment. Arms and swirl, arms and swirl, running backwards, bland. Abby did not give her good stuff to impress them. "You could have been on broadway. But...you have to be a dancer", big oof. "Throughout the whole piece, I kept wanting there to be a pause. I wanted there to be time where you let your body finish and move all the way through something before jumping into the next movement" she has a point. Maddie rushes through it, ballerinas don't. She was so wobbly on her relevé, Abby HELP HER, YOU'RE HER TEACHER

• Cathy, can you shut the fuck up? "I know Kendall trained elsewhere, but we worked out all her as habits. What have you don Abby?". Like, they're just sitting there, helping their girls out, TF YOU WANT CATHY? Now she's talking shit about Brooke....WORRY ABOUT YOUR OWN STUDENTS. Close your mouth and worry about your damn self. Abby didn't scream Cathy, she asked politely (which is shocking, I know) to tone it down, you're at Joffrey...yet Cathy still goes on. Of course they have to tell them to be quiet and Cathy "oh don't only talk to me", BUT ITS ONLY YOU. I don't miss you being in the show Cathy, go touch some grass or something

• pleaseeeeee, they look so cute! (Hurt Them First)

• I loved it! They were so cute

• CATHY PLEASE FUCK OFF WITHBA SIDE OF GORILLA GLUE YOUR MOUTH SHUT. Stop laughing at their routine, don't call their outfits raunchy. Worry about your own human prop

• ew Cathy's group (Almost Heaven). The costumes remind me of a mix between Chloe's angry bird and Maddie's angel costume. I hate the feather looking things across the top. ViVi's costume (without the feather crap) was what everyone's should've looked like. ViVi on stage looking the best

• ViVi just standing there for half the dance. Oh now she's laying annnnd she got picked up. Eh. I'm sorry but I didn't like it. ViVi deserved better that being treated as a human prop. Give her some dancing!

• group awards:

Hurt Them First (ALDC): tenth

Almost Heaven (CADC): ninth

Only one stupid point

• Abby crying, she's "humiliated". Ugh

• Christi got a call from Joffrey. They want to offer Chloe a scholarship, she was at the top of their list! (I wish she actually got to take it too) I hate that Paige looked disgusted

I hope by the costume

Annnnnnd Maddie looks disgusted too

• Kendall's copy cat solo (Red Queen) is up first. Costume is eh. Loved that the skirt can't forward at the end though

• Maddie's solo (In My Heart) is up next. Costume is absolutely beautiful

First turn she wobbled. Oh, she cried and ran off stage. Will she get the same treatment Chloe and Nia did? (Let's be real, absolutely not. Abby will somehow make it seem like she was a professional by running off stage or something)

"Abby's going to freak out on me", "Abby's going to hate me". It's so sad that a kid is terrified of a dance teacher. I wonder what goes on behind the scenes for her to freak out this much

"It's not fair, they just threw you out there", Melissa that's what dance competitions do. She wasn't thrown out there, they called her number and she came out herself

• Chloe's solo (Red Queen) is up. Pleaseeeeee, I love her costume

Abby is watching Chloe...ish. She's sobbing in the crowd over Maddie. Anyways this is about Chloe. Her turn was sharp and gorgeous. Her leaps were amazing. I loved it

• waterworks for Abby. Melissa said "tell her how it feels Chloe", like....maybe not dig the wound deeper? She forgot the last episode. It probably still stings. "Dance isn't that important", when why do you keep pushing her???

• Chloe sitting there watching Maddie sob and cry into Abby's arms, while Abby holds her, telling her it's ok. That broke my heart, you could see how it broke her a little too

• I love the moms calling out Abby. She was SILENT. Oh, waterworks again 🙄

• solo awards:

Kendall, Queen of Hearts: seventh

Maddie, In my Heart: didn't place

Chloe, Red Queen: first

• Abby didn't watch awards and didn't congratulate Chloe on her win. Nope, she's walking out like a little bitch. She's going home, the dancers suddenly "fine without her"

[psycho-dancemoms]

Dance moms rewatch: Waiting For Joffrey (s2/e12)

Place: Energy Dance Competition. Highland, MI

• Abby is already starting with the comments. "I thought the group was great", little people talk to Maddie that she can't let her nerves get to her, because she "beat the boys" and then we get to Nia. Anything nice? Eh. "You were a beat behind in the trio. It's the difficult technical things you need to work on"

....ok Abby

• PYRAMID!!!!

Maddie

Brooke, Mackenzie

Paige, Nia, Chloe

• "Paige, I need more", "Brooke, watch your chin stands", "Mackenzie, we need to not focus on just your acro"......so encouraging, I guess

• group dance is called: Nip and Tuck

The message of the dance is about body image, it's a message about people that do have work done. It's kind of eerie, it's kind of dark

A scout from Joffrey will be there

• there will be two trios!

Trio #1: Mackenzie, Paige and Nia

- will be a high energy jazz routine, incorporating gymnastic tumbling

Trio #2: Brooke, Maddie and Chloe

- will be a contemporary lyrical routine

"Chloe, it's about it the trio".....why she gotta say shit to Chloe? Like damn, she's just standing there!

• Maddie and Chloe have solos

• Christi says she thought Chloe should be in the second row, not on the bottom of the pyramid. Melissa chimes in that she "doesn't know why Mackenzie is in the second row". Cut to the interview of Christi saying "jeez Melissa, I wonder why Mackenzie was on the second row. Maybe because you're best friends with Abby"

I chuckled

• "I keep hearing the moms talk about work they want done, to retain their youth"

Abby, them being around you sucked the youth right out of them. So I don't blame them

• "my girls totally know what liposuction is, 'cause I always talk about it"

Yes, Melissa. That's healthy body talk in front of your 9 and 6 year old

Kelly wants her boobs done, because she lost them nursing her kids

Christi says that people want her to get her nose done, but she wears it like a badge of honor (I honestly love that)

• Nia twisted her ankle

She's now at the foot doctor. She has a stress fracture. She can dance, but cannot do her tricks

• Maddie's solo is a contemporary dance, called Quiet Voices

"It's darker than usual"....like Abby hasn't given her dark stuff before

• Chloe's solo is a lyrical dance

•....Abby sent Chloe out and decided to run Maddie's solo in front of the senior team

Christi is right. Way to put all her eggs in one basket

Melissa is running from the truth like a little bitch and said to Maddie that she "doesn't want to dance here anymore", because the moms "only talk about Melissa and her".....if you ran your mouth to Abby like you do to your own kid, maybe you wouldn't have those problems anymore. Stop letting Abby alienate Maddie from the other girls

• Maddie, Chloe and Brooke's trio is called "Somebody Told Me"

Finally Abby, FINALLY! "Sickle feet, Maddie!"

"Ugh, sloppy girls. I have no idea what's going on with Maddie. It's just a mess. You're marking the side area, you're sloppy out of every turn" and yet she never corrects the turns and Maddie continues to fall out of them

• I love bus driver Jim! He refuses to stop at Abby's house to pick up her dog

• first will be Maddie's solo. Then the two Trio's. Then Chloe's solo

• Maddie loves the song, but said she's very tired

Abby said Maddie is frantically going around the room, when she's usually "cool as a cucumber" and she needs to calm down so "she can do what Maddie does best: win"

Melissa poked Maddie with a pin

• Maddie's costume is very pretty (Quiet Voices)

• little Mackenzie smiling while watching her sister dance. I canttttt, she has my whole heart. LOOK AT HER!!!

• Maddie did great. But gosh, I can't stand that she travels when she turns!

• first trio costumes were cute. Because of course (Somebody Told Me)

• I think they did really well

• second trio costumes are cute and matchy (girl fun)

• to be honest, I loved this dance over the other trio. It was upbeat, it was fun, they did a great job

• Chloe's solo costume is very pretty, I just hate how it looks baggy on her

• she danced beautifully, but sadly she forgot a part. Christ was right, if she gave Chloe the same attention the other girls (I assume she's meaning mainly Maddie), she wouldn't have forgotten her dance

There's absolutely no reason for Abby to bring Nia into this. "Did you learn something? That's what you do. You keep going and don't run off stage"....Abby, they're CHILDREN! They'll forgot. Don't make them feel bad about it and bring it up several weeks later to take another jab

• not gonna lie, these costumes remind me of the "fantastic" dance. The nude costumes with rhinestones on them

• Nip and Tuck was beautifully preformed

• solo awards!

Maddie: first

Chloe: didn't place

• duo/trio awards!

Maddie/Brooke/Chloe: first

Mackenzie/Nia/Paige: didn't place

• group awards:

Group: didn't place

• "if these girls don't learn how to dance together, then they'll never place overall"....BUT THEY DID

" you are never going to win the overall group doing a group routine that's not together", who wants to bet that it's because of dance itself and not the girls

• Joffrey dude came in and invited them to the audition, for the summer program

• Mackenzie looks scared

[psycho-dancemoms]

I haven't had the chance to really sit down, watch dance moms and do my rewatch commentary. But I finally have the time to! Let the binge begin

[psycho-dancemoms]

Dance moms rewatch: Melissa pleads the 5th (S2/E11)

Place: Company Dance, Chicago, IL

• Holly is at work, and NIA is at the bottom. TF?!

• pyramid

Maddie

Paige Chloe

Brooke Mackenzie Nia

• there's a group dance about a homeless child

Solo: Maddie

Trio: Chloe, Maddie and Paige

• "I will not be losing to Cathy, Jill or Kendall"

Ok Abby, stop obsessing

• "I have nothing negative to say about this dance"

Well yeah. Only Maddie is homeless. They aren't topless or prostitots!

• Nia tells Holly she's in a trio. Holly is ecstatic!

• I guess this was when they really knew this would be long term. Holly took a leave of absence from her job for the next school year. To be at the studio more

• ew Cathy

Justice is doing a solo he knows

Their group is about "dark clowns"

• keep it classy Cathy, don't bully another person in front of the children

• Justice is going head to head with Maddie.......mmm, Cathy

• Gia wants to pull the trio, because they don't think Nia can do it. Ok, but so what? She's having fun, dance is supposed to be FUN

• Abby and Gia gossiping about the moms and then said the moms are in junior high. Well so are you two!

• Melissa went to meet Jill. Snake

• of course Jill is "Cathy is so great, Kendall got to preform at the globetrotters all by herself", then Melissa "it's the same old stuff, when I get married I'll tell everyone!"

• Holly is exited, but knows Nia is already the weakest link. Then Melissa, ROLLING HER FUCKING EYES AND ACTING SMUG. Bitch

• so Melissa is being a whiney bitch, not wearing her ring, WAITING for someone to be concerned. Then when they are and ask of her if Greg feels bad that she isn't wearing her ring, she pops off "it's just how we're doing it"

BUT THEN when they're talking about it, trying to make it light hearted saying things like "once you get an engagement ring, just flash it off", "haha let me try it so when I get mine redone, I'll know if that's the style I want! Haha", and of course Holly "I don't think I ever took mine off"

But now Melissa is storming off LIKE A FUCKING BITCH. NO ONE IS JEALOUS OF YOU

• Melissa is screaming at Maddie they're leaving, now she's sending Maddie with Abby, and NOW she's calling Greg, to contact the attorney, because "these bitches are doing it again"

NO BITCH they didn't do a thing to you. YOU miss "I have to be the fucking victim ALWAYS, boohoo poor pitiful me" are the one always bringing everything up, then when they are concerned you twist it. YOU TWISTED IT. I hate Melissa with a burning passion

• "we all have melt downs, but we don't run to Abby"

Because you're grownups. Melissa is a child

• "maybe when you get home tonight or when you have a private moment with your mothers, tell them to keep their mouths shut and stay away from Melissa"

Sorry your snake slithered on home, but the other moms didn't do A THING to Melissa. Sorry she's not a grownup and can't handle things all by herself

• "there's two things you don't talk about. Weddings and divorce"

Abby, YOU wanted them to talk about the weddings when you found out Melissa was engaged

• ABBY JUST FINGER GUNNED HER TEMPLE, WTF

• yes Holly, they're fabricating!

• ugh Melissa, "I came back for my girls", yeah no. You came back to kiss her ass to keep getting Maddie ahead

• Melissa came back talking like it's nothing. "I went to lunch with Jill". So you can say you're a backstabbed, but can't talk about your engagement to the guy you had an affair with? OK THEN

• enough of the drama. Maddie's solo is called reflection. It's lyrical acrobatic

• "don't throw your head up, you don't want to look like Kendall"

I- ok, I'll let that slide. It's a true fact and she didn't say it rudely

• I don't care about the dressing room stuff

But the person said "I need number 3, beautiful"

Then on stage call they said "Please welcome act number 3, reflection"

MAKE IT MAKE SENSE

• anyways, Maddie's solo, love her costume

Beautiful? But things we've seen before

Dang, I would win every time too, if my dance teacher gave me the same exact steps every single time

• Justice has a solo. His split jump was beautiful, but he's boring

• trio!!!! CUTE

It was entertaining. Melissa and Abby don't need to be in the audience "I didn't like it", fuck off

• solo awards

Maddie placed 1st in petite

Trio didn't place

• moms went to lunch, Melissa was a no show

• all the moms for a letter from an attorney, GUESS THAT'S WHY SHE DIDN'T SHOW!

And if they do, she threatens to sue them. What a BITCH

• speak of the sneaky bitch, Melissa showed up

"We need to speak of the letter"

"What letter? Oh....that was from his attorney, not me"

MELISSA YOU CALLED AND SAID DO THAT, YOU DID SEND IT. Stop playing stupid, we know how sneaky you are

• group dance!

Such cute, simple costumes

It was beautiful. Sometimes not together, but they're kids, they didn't have time be in sync

I think Abby saw something different, it wasn't flawless, there were errors and that's ok

• Candy Apples dance "Ode to Clown" or "Ode to the Clown", I can't remember. It's meh

• Cathy boasted about Taylor earlier in the episode and now Taylor is a beat behind

• oh no, Taylor's ankle. How to get out of a crap dance, purposely hurt yourself. She didn't "fall"

• "Taylor looks really hurt and she's my teammate now, I hope she's ok"

The most blandest, fakest "sincere" thing Kendall has said so far

• bye Taylor!

As soon as she's wheeled out Cathy says "well, Kendall, you're going to have to replace Taylor"

Of course Jill is ecstatic

• group dance awards

Group placed 3rd

• just caught something. The person in the dressing room called the dance Homeless and the judge called it Trapped

LIFETIME YOUR EDITING SUCKS

• Taylor broke her ankle, oh, well oops. But Cathy, she didn't dance the whole dance, she didn't dance until the end. She hobbled off mid dance

• Cathy brings a present for Melissa, Melissa said "speak to my lawyer"

• ok, overall, this episode aggravated me to my core. Melissa is being over dramatic with everything, of course. But OHMAGAWD this episode just, I hate it. I hate Melissa

[psycho-dancemoms]

Dance moms rewatch: Miami Heat Wave (S2/E10)

Place: Miami FL

• starting off the episode with Abby bitching about how they didn't place because "you weren't in unison!"

....Abby they didn't place because they were TOPLESS children

• pyramid:

Maddie

Brooke Chloe

Nia Paige Mackenzie

• bitching that Chloe needs to dance like 12 year olds at 10, when Abby you never EVER encourage her. Just break her down

• group is called "reputation"

• "miss Abby stars talking about Annette Funicelli and the Beach Bingo. I have no idea what she's talking about"

Me either Paige...me either

• oh god. Abby is talking wanting to see them in "little itsy-bitsy '60s bikinis

• solos!

Maddie

Chloe

Nia

• trios!

Maddie, Chloe and Paige

• "it would be nice if Nia could be considered for the trio"

Well Holly, understandable. But Nia doesn't grasp it like Maddie and Chloe does, which is why they get multiple dances. Paige didn't even get a solo, so....

• Paige is getting her warts removed the day after pyramid. Abby claims she doesn't want to put her in the trio and have her physically dance in pain when she's learning it

....the same Abby that made Paige dance in her boot with a broken foot

• ughhhhhh CATHY. I forgot Kendall was over at candy apples

• "I want to take the girls back to an error of innocence"

But last week you wanted them to be topless 😂

• moms are talking about Paige's surgery, laughing and saying Nia is practically volunteering herself. For once, Christi sounded sincere when she told Holly to talk to Abby about that

• ok, but Holly could've waited

• "I was already planning on Nia being the swing for Paige in the trio"

Well that's actually considerate...for once!

"But Holly can't even give me 3 seconds to let me tell her this. No. She has to come in, interrupt my rehearsal again..."

• "Paige might not be able to do if, Nia's it"

"Why didn't you just say that"

So actually, rewatching it. I'm seeing that Holly was actually in the wrong

• I don't know what went on behind the scenes. But after Paige said something about her warts getting removed, they immediately went to group rehearsals. So she should've given her to the end of the dance day to bring it up

• "I am never setting foot in this studio again"

Mhm, and then you'll show up within the next few day "but Nia wants to dance with her friends!". I already see it happening, it happens when every mom claims they'll never come back

• Nia didn't come back

• oh shocker, only Christi and Kelly are at rehearsals. Where's Melissa?!

• Paige's wart removed was fast. She was walking out right after

• ok, so from Maddie and Chloe in rehersal:

Maddie: lyrical solo called All My Life

Maddie: contemporary lyrical called Send Down Your Love

• Cathy got Kendall the half time spot for the Harlem globetrotters

• the trio rehearsals are up. The dance is called Les Divas

• Paige is really trying. She had her warts removed the day before. The doctor said she could dance as long as she doesn't blister

• Abby said to Paige "ima have to pull you from the number"

• OH MY GOSH!!!!! I was right, Holly's back!

• "she definitely wants to come back. Nia wants to be here"

THEY ALWAYS USE THE KIDS TO COME BACK

• "I decided to come back to the studio"

SEE, SEE! Claims her kid wants to come back and now it's "I want to come back"

• oh, even Melissa is there

• back to "Nia really wanted to come"

No, YOU had to come back 🤪

• "maybe you can practice in Florida"

Well, at least she's still going to Florida

• oh, Nia is doing her solo. It's an acrobatic jazz solo

• FREE TIME! The girls have free time!!!!!

• THE ICONIC LINE!

"I could've gotten lost at sea"

She was literally on the shore, that's what makes it even more iconic!

• Kendall's preforming at the halftime show

She looked cute

• competition time! Trio is first

LOOK HOW PRECIOUS THEY LOOK

They did such a great job. Even injured Paige

• group is next!

Very entertaining

• awards! .....wait a minute

Left: Maddie when it shows "awards" on the screen

Right: Maddie after Christi spoke, the sash is gone. Then came back when they were announced

So many jump cuts of her with and without the sash

• anyways, AWARDS!

Group placed 3rd in junior group

Trio placed 2nd in junior duet/trio

• solos are next

• so Maddie's solo is up first

Costume is cute!

The choreo is something we've seen a thousand times before from her. But yeah, entertaining

• Chloe's solo is next!

AHH CUTE COSTUME

So beautiful. Even Maddie was in the stands, smiling while watching her dance. Honestly, her emotions look so raw, no offense Maddie. But oh my goodness a split turn! She wobbled, it was something new, she did great for her first try of that in a dance

• Nia's solo is last

COSTUME!!!!!

NIA FROZE!

Awwwww, Chloe and Maddie ran to comfort her

• Nia will be dancing again, so round 2!

• Abby needs to give her more credit. She's so entertaining

CHLOE AND MADDIE WERE RIGHT THERE WAITING, MY HEART

• solo awards:

Nia placed 3rd

Chloe placed 2nd

Maddie placed 1st

• overall, I'm happy Abby didn't scream at Nia for forgetting. I know she was disappointed, but she didn't scream at her and Nia placed! She learned the dance what, a day prior? And kids such a great job!

Dance moms rewatch: Topless Showgirls (S2/E9)

*disclaimer: lifetime took the full episodes down from practically everywhere. So this is just my opinions on the clips. This will be all over the place, so I apologize*

Place: fire and ice

• pyramid!

Maddie

Nia Chloe

Mackenzie Paige Brooke

• "you're going to be show girls! The audience should think you are nude"

Uh, ok. Well they're a bunch of kids. No wonder the episode was pulled forever!

• "there is no dance in the world that should feature a child naked"

YES KELLY

• "the moms are always upset with the costumes"

UH YEAH

"I want my girls to be classy and elegant on stage"

How, THEY'RE NAKED?!

• group is called "fantastic"

• solos:

Chloe is doing contemporary, it's called The Raven

Maddie is doing contemporary lyrical, it's called I'm Already There

Brooke (not shown) did an acrobatic dance called Unknown

• "and people wonder why we drink"

Well anyone dealing with Abby would drink

• Abby nicely corrected Chloe. IM SHOOK

• "because one day one of them will be a show girl"

EXCUSE ME?!

• "those are not tops, those are bandaids"

Ha Holly!

• "how is this going to fit me?"

"My outfit was tiny"

"I could fit this on my American doll"

Baby Kenzie coming in hot with those questions. Care to explain Abby?

• "I have never seen anything that skimpy"

Uh Holly.....the electricity dance

• "Paige. If I could wear those, I would be wearing them to the mall"

EW ABBY NO

• THIS IS THE BEEF JERKY COMMERCIAL EPISODE!!!!!!

She really REALLY hates her life

• "you look fabulous! GIRLS. You might want to keep your distance, you stink a little"

Really Cathy, really? Even your dancers hate what you're doing to poor Chloe

• Cathy just "kiss kissed" at Chloe

•the commercial was horrendous

• anyways, costume try on.....

• "stop saying they look naked!"

BUT THEY DO

• ok so group......

YIKES

• moms reactions?

Of course Melissa is fine with it

• judges?

Oh they look like they loved it Abby....REALLY 🥴

• "that's a little naked for my taste"

Yep, me too

• Maddie's solo, I'm Already There. Their wiki said contemporary lyrical, but the show only put lyrical

• costume is CUTE!

• "Maddie's my biggest competition. Maddie and I are always competing and she inspires me to become a better dancer"

That was precious Chloe

• honestly, the dance was precious. This was before Abby shoved the "Maddie face" in every dance

• Chloe's solo, The Raven. Wiki said its lyrical, but the show said it's musical theatre

• costume is cute! Hate the bullseye

• wow, FANTASTIC! Chloe does dark roles so perfectly

• Brooke's unaired solo. Can't find it, but found her costume

• awards:

Group: didn't place (no brainer)

Solos:

Chloe- 2nd in Junior Solo

Maddie- 1st in mini solo (break the ice winner)

Brooke- unaired, but placed 1st in teen solo

•all in all, this was all over the place. I'm glad they took that episode down, but I'm sad about it because I wanted to watch it through

[psycho-dancemoms]

I have never seen these photos, but wow. Little babies 🥺

[psycho-dancemoms]

Dance moms rewatch: (S2/E8) The Runaway Mom

Place: Fire and Ice, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

• pyramid time!

Nia

Maddie Chloe

Mackenzie Brooke Paige Kendall

• Kendall is back on probation, LMFAO 💀

• "you should be on probation"

OH MAN, PREDICTING THE FUTURE?!

• bye Jill, bye Kendall

• YES NIA!!!!! TOP OF THE PYRAMID!!!!!

• group is called "Head Over Heels"

• ohhhh, this is the engagement episode. Alrighty.......

• Nia has a solo called "I'll Do Anything For You"

Abby's voice is shockingly sweet. "Push" instead of barking "PUSH YOU IDIOT!!!!!"

• Jill claims she's going back to her old studio.....then walks into Candy Apples 😂

• "I need to be sure all your ties are severed from the Abby Lee Dance Company"

You know Cathy, I think they are. Which is why you let Kendall do a solo she learned from Abby and use the costume she got from Abby's....right? 🥴

• Abby: "I heard about the engagement! So are you going to be in the wedding? Do you think I'm going to be in the wedding?"

Maddie in confessions: "My mom is engaged, but I'm not supposed to talk about it"

..............

Abby: "Can't believe you're not more exited about the wedding. What do you think about the ring?"

Maddie: "Beautiful"

Chloe: "I love the story"

...........

Abby: "Mackenzie, tell me the story"

Kenzie: "I don't know what story"

Kenzie in confessions: "We're not supposed to tell Abby anything. She's a blabber mouth"

BABY KENZ SPITTING OUT ICONIC QUOTES

• "I'm not wearing any underwear"

KELLY WHY ARW YOU IN THE DRESS THEN!?

• "are you looking to join the company?"

"I'm looking for a studio and a group of kids she can dance with"

Mmmmmmmmmm, Jill....

• "we walk in and Cathy gives Kendall a solo right off the bat. She sees my daughters talent..."

Well she got a solo because she wants to stir shit up with Abby. Not because of "Kendall's undeniable talent!" 🥴

• Kenzie talking about marrying Justin Bieber. So cute!

• "is Melissa going to bring the dad or the sugar dad...dy?"

Christi 😂😂😂

• "you should've kept your wedding dress. The kids probably would've wanted it. Even if they don't wear it, but as a keepsake"

I would understand a happy marriage, you keep it. But, whatever happened between Melissa and Kurt, she clearly doesn't want anything to remember being married to him. Kinda makes sense she tossed it

• oh they're serving sparkling apple cider at candy apples? Seems a bit........made up for the show

• "I think Nia is at the top of the pyramid"

BECAUSE YOU ALREADY KNEW SHE WAS!

• ewwwwww, personal things about Melissa being said 🤢

• BROADWAY BABY!!!!!!!!!!!

• STOP WITH THE RHINESTONES!!!!

• Abby is shook that Kendall is with candy apples. Cathy is talking shit about Broadway Baby in a stroller. I see one thing wrong with this moment. SHUT THE FUCK UP CATHY! Don't you dare say anything about that sweet pup!

• "everyone said I was crazy when I wanted to look into Jill's background. But here she is with Cathy, of all people"

Christi is the only person that called it. Traitor Jill in the house

"You're leaving Freddy for Jason"

ICONIC 💀

• Holly being a bit sad about Kendall going up against Nia. Because who the hell wants to go up against a teammate that became a traitor

• Nia's solo is up first. Honestly, I see so much potential with Nia. She did such a beautiful job with lyrical. I'm so proud of her! Her costume is quite stunning too

She looks so beautiful!

• Kendall's solo is up next. She did a great job.....but Cathy didn't teach her anything. Abby's choreo with Abby's costume. Still, she did a beautiful job!

Her costume looks great on her!

• Holly seems upset. Which, I completely understand why. Jill is a whole ass snake. But it was so cute seeing how Chloe kept telling Nia how well she did 🥺

• "you're making me sad"

" it doesn't matter about the dance. It matters about me. I'm emotional"

Ok, prior to her little iconic quotes, Melissa threw the bouquet. ONLY Chloe and Paige were the ones that were in the area to catch it and play fought about it. Kenzie was standing the furthest away with her own. So why is she "so emotional?". I don't think it's about "catching the bouquet", since she was happy watching the other girls play fight about it. Why she went from happy to sad in a scene, idk

• group is up! It's cute! Although Maddie was a bit behind on the turn that was supposed to be in sync. Kenzie wished her dad was there to watch her dance, oh my heart. They did a great job though!

Cute costumes too!

• candy apples is up next. While they did a great job, Justice and ViVi just ran around. As always. STOP USING CHILDREN AS HUMAN PROPS FOR THE TEENS TO BRING THE AGE DOWN

Costumes look nice. Not really something for a funeral though

• ironic how Abby's dance is about being a bride and the costumes are all white. While Cathy's dance is about a funeral and their costumes are all black

• awards time!!!!

Group: first overall

Nia: didn't place

Kendall: first

• Nia is crying. Her parents are over there comforting her. Her dad telling her she did a beautiful job. The Frazier family is so holesome 🥺

• "I see one kid crying, one kid pouting and one kid sitting on their dads lap"

Ok so Nia is on her dads lap crying. Who's the other two? Abby made it out as if 3 kids are crying

• Jill got a "candy apples dance mom jacket". Ew

• Holly is upset and they're leaving. Abby is shockingly understanding about it. I just feel so sad for Nia. She deserved the win

[psycho-dancemoms]

Dance moms rewatch: (S2/E7) Bullets and Ballet

Place: Hollywood Vibe, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

• "no coming late, no leaving early"

Abby, you can't dictate that. Stuff like family energies happen

• "we're in our backyard. You have a target on your back"

I am uncomfortable with this statement.....

• group is called "private eyes"

• "you're going to be using guns"

Aaaaand that's why I was uncomfortable with the "target on your back" statement

"I want you to kill it"

Though the kids are nodding and smiling, the moms, especially Christi, is clearly uncomfortable with that too

• pyramid time (finally):

Paige

Brooke Chloe

Maddie Kendall Nia Mackenzie

• "you went from first to worst"

She's 6 abby, 6!!!!

• "it's not what you wear, it's your technique"

Oh just wait abby, you forget all about that in the future episodes

• Maddie is on bottom because her falling on her butt and how she "could've been seriously injured"

I'm glad abby never knew me. I constantly fell from high places without breaking anything 😂

• "wipe the pout off your face. You know that you made your mistake. That's what you get"

WOW ABBY, keeping it real for once and looking over the fact that she's your favorite

• "I don't feel like Maddie should be at the bottom of the pyramid this week. I think it's ridiculous. She fell. Things happen"

Melissa. First off, your OTHER daughter is also on the bottom. Second off, SHE FELL! She messed up her routine, she didn't win. Every other girl on that floor has made smaller mistakes and got pushed on the bottom. Hell, Nia did a great job and Abby still put her on the bottom. Shut the fuck up

• Paige on top is just amazing. But it looks like she doesn't care. Then again, if I had to stand in the same spot for 3 hours, I'd be over it too

• Kenzie isn't dancing in the group (no brainer. A 6 year old with a gun, no thanks)

• Chloe, Maddie and Paige are in a trio

Kendall and Jill are acting fucking mad about it? KENDALL, YOU ARE NOT IN THE ORIGIONAL TRIO. STOP WITH THE FACE

• "Kendall and I decide to stick this out. We want to make this work. We are team players. So we come back, we're part of the team, and this is how Abby repays us. By taking Kendall out of the trio"

Jill, you had a whole ass tantrum over a costume. Knowing that Abby said MAKE ONE. Team player? Never. Abby owes you nothing and again KENDALL IS NOT APART OF THE ORIGIONAL TRIO!

• Chloe and Maddie both have solos

• Abby: "you're dismissed, thank you"

The girls: "thank you" and start heading to the door

Abby: "no. You guys spread apart"

I CAN'T 😂

• everyone BUT Jill is against the girls dancing with guns. Because of course

• "so I'm glad Paige is back in the trio"

Me too Melissa. Jill, wipe the fucking look off your face

• "Jill's mad Kendall isn't in the trio. But when Kendall was in it and Paige wasn't. Jill couldn't understand why Kelly was mad"

Because Jill is a lil bitch

• "Nia has been here since she was 3 and never had a trio"

"Holly, maybe if you were here more often..."

Jill, Holly has a JOB. Something you could use. But instead you're piggybacking off your child 🙃

• "you guys always want to jump down my throat"

Because you don't shut your fucking mouth Jill. JUST SHUT UP

• Jill bringing a damn bench......

• bench: *to Abby Lee*

Jill: "it's not for Abby!"

• "you're a conniving bitch"

YES CHRISTI, TELL JILL!

• "don't you feel like you...want to turn this way?"

NO, NO I DO NOT!!!!

• Nia got 10 push-ups for a "bent knee" (even though the camera doesn't show her doing that). So Kendall bends her knee and what does she get? 20 push-ups 😂

• trio is called "Over and Over"

• yelling at Paige, because she didn't get a part right? Correct her, not belittle her and make her cry. CORRECT THE PROBLEM

• "stupid is as stupid does"

Honestly, thank the good lord NO ONE reproduced with that bully bitch

• "you're bigger than her. Not by size"

OOF

• "DING DONG LOOK"

Abby, stop bullying a fucking 10 year old. So she forgot it. Yes it's because she's a KID. Kids forget things. They aren't pros

• "they need to go home before somebody gets hurt"

Is....is that a threat Abby?

• "every kid makes mistakes" says Abby. Even though she was just yelling at them and calling them stupid for making a mistake a scene ago

• "what's with the tears, I don't understand"

"You don't understand? It's because you're screaming in little kids faces"

*abby mimicking Christi* "little kids, meh meh"

Then yells at Paige "GROW UP!"

Someone needs to deck that bitch

• "my mother would've came in and beat my butt if I couldn't count to 8"

....and didn't your mother also never want you in her studio? Yeah, I can see why

• "miss Abby said that for our group dance, "Private Eyes," we were going to use plastic guns and then she said we were going to blow the competetion away. And I don't... I... I really hope she doesn't mean literally, 'cause we could get disqualified"

First of all, CHLOE IS SO CUTE! That whole statement is adorable. Second of all, you can tell dance is her number 1 priority from that statement as well

• Chloe's dance is called "Please". Though it's rehearsals, I like it so far

• Maddie solo is called "Every Little Step". It looks cool so far

• Kendall is doing the music. Jill says it's "unfortunate". She's not rehearsing, she's fine. She could be stretching while she's doing music

• Jill storms out the studio with Kendall. Because that worked so well for the other moms.......

• Chloe's up first. Her solo was beautiful, as well as her costume!

Absolutely stunning!

• Maddie's solo is up next. Her solo is so pretty, but it looks like she stumbled. Maybe it was made into the dance? Beautiful job though, as well as her costume!

So pretty!

• the trio is up! Spacing is off some, but they didn't do a horrible job. Not as bad as Abby was making it out to be. Now COSTUMES!

LOVE!

• Solo awards:

Chloe: 2nd

Maddie: 1st

Duo/Trio awards:

Trio: 2nd

• of course. "2nd is the first to lose!" Yeah yeah. How about encourage them to do better and place higher, but also celebrate their placement

• "obviously your kid didn't love the dance, she forgot it"

Abby.....they learn red dances every week, they work their butts off for days. So they forgot, that's ok! It's not like they learned and have been practicing the dance for a whole year

• GROUP TIME!!!! Maddie fell out her turn....because of course. It's a reoccurring theme with her, since Abby won't correct her. I'm shocked Kendall turned better than Maddie. She didn't fall out! Now costumes!

It loooed so great in the blue light

• Group awards:

Group: 1st

• the group didn't win overall, but they still won 1st. Yet abby looks so damn defeted over it?

• Jill trying to tell Abby what she should've done to "win". NO HUNNY

• I'm ready for next weeks train wreck

[psycho-dancemoms]

Goodness, I haven't gotten the chance to watch Dance Moms in a while or been able to get on here, due to personal reasons. But I will be finishing what I started. Get ready for the rest of season 2 rewatch opinions!

[psycho-dancemoms]

Dance moms rewatch: (S2/E6) Jill on a rampage

Place: dance exploration, Secaucus, New Jersey *cancelled*

New place: M.A. dance, Clute, Texas

• Jill in her damn shoes on the dance floor

• pyramid:

Mackenzie

Chloe Maddie

Paige Brooke Nia Kendall

• Kendall on the bottom because Jill is so needy

• Mackenzie won in New Jersey and New York. So she's on top

• NO GROUP

Everyone gets a solo

• the moms have to bring a custume. No recycled costume and no costume that Abby has seen before

• solo names and styles:

Mackenzie: acro jazz called Shoulda, Coulda, Woulda

Maddie: Spanish Jazz called Maestro Man

Kendall: lyrical called Sweet Little Lies

Nia: acro lyrical called I'm Gonna Survive

Chloe: ballet called In For The Thrill

Paige: acro jazz called Make Some Noise

Brooke: acro lyrical called Who Am I

• Jill wants to use one of Kendall's costumes she's worn before. The moms are trying to talk her out of it because they're supposed to "make them", even though they aren't supposed to recycle costumes

• Christi talks about the contracts. She states that it says "'cause your child won a title, if we left, that it would cost us $100,000 in cash within seven days, or she would blackball us in the world of dance"

Kelly states in the contract that "basically says that she owns you for a year"

• EW CATHY AGAIN

• Cathy's "pyramid" (line):

?

ViVi Sarah Kerisa Taylor Erika Justice

• the ? is for whoever new will be joining from her open call

• Abby did the "ahh" at Maddie

• Jill won't shut up

• Payton showed up to Cathy's open call. Because of course

• Cathy chose Payton. BECAUSE OF COURSE

• Payton said she has to think about it because "it's a long way from where I live"

Girl, so is the ALDC. 2 and a half hour drive to be exact

• Cathy claimed to be positive and then told Payton she wasted her time because she didn't know if she's 100% ready to compete

So "positive"

• Leslie still searching for a studio and claiming if she has to crawl back to Abby, "then so be it"

That would be terrifying and hilarious to see Leslie literally crawl to Abby

• "I don't sew, I'm not a designer"

That's because you focus on education and honestly go Holly for getting them degrees!

• "I have a chicken"

CRYING

• "I got like sunbursts. Kind of cheery, little bit bright"

"Sweet little lies. Black, white, red"

"Like an orange?"

"No"

"Black red or pink?"

"Even white!"

Jill what part of "black, white or red" do you not get? No orange, NO PINK

• everyone has actual costumes, Christi left the tutu to dry at the house and of course Abby bitches

• "here's the bra that I'm dying the same color"

"You're putting your child in a bra?"

Abby, you put them in bras all the time. Why you bitching?

• Dance Explosion has been cancelled

• I'm a little shocked at Melissa's reply to be I told the competetion is cancelled

"Learning that the competetion was cancelled is awful. I mean, my daughters really want to dance. Mackenzie's finally at the top of the pyramid, and I'm really upset about it"

SHE REMEMBERED SHE HAD TWO DAUGHTERS. SHOOKITH

• Kelly had the idea to call around and see if there's some competetions open

• also shookith they have 7 completed solos

• "yee-haw! They say don't mess with Texas , but the Abby Lee Dance Company is on its way"

Don't ever say "yee-haw" again Abby....EVER

"Look out, cowboys. Here we come"

I guess to her Texas is just so "country" 🤦🏼‍♀️

• oh my, a gymnasium floor? It's actually not that hard to dance on a gym floor

• "I hope you were guiding your mothers when they made these costumes, yes? ...........hope nobody has to dance naked, ladies"

• Brooke is up first, love her costume

So entertaining too!

• Mackenzie is next, little cutie

She did such a great job

• Jill's costume is cute. But she claims she "borrowed it"

• Jill being so damn dramatic over a costume she borrowed. She should've just made a simple ass custume

• "it's so hard to take her serious in that hat"

Why she gotta wear hat though? 💀

• "I'm really shocked That Jill flipped out at Abby the way she did"

Are you really Melissa? She got called out for something all the moms warned her against

• "when you're older, you'll understand that you need to stand up for what you think is right"

But Jill, it's not right to pull her dance because you couldn't follow the rules. You're teaching her to be a hypocrite

• Poor Nia having back and hip pain

• "there's a big difference between being sore and being injured. Injured, you should not dance. Sore, you have to work through the pain"

But when Brooke was injured she was forced to dance. When Paige broke her foot, she still danced

• Nia is having a panic attack over the gym floor, it might be slippery

• Maddie worried about Nia, asking if she's ok. THAT'S PRECIOUS!

• Nia is up next, looking so cute

Even though she had a panic attack, she still did such a great job

• Jill is fucking PETTY

• Kendall is next

This solo was good, but it looks like she missed some steps/was late and forgot for a second

• ballerina Chloe is up next

She's definitely the ballerina of the group. She danced beautifully

• Maddie is next!

Very entertaining until she fell and they made it seem like she couldn't continue

• "when I saw this gentleman carrying my daughter off, my heart sunk to my stomach....I thought she broke a bone"

Look at her being a concerned mommy, but falling on your butt won't break a bone. It'll bruise the area, but not break it. She's too close to the ground anyways and it's just a gym floor

• Abby carried Maddie. While cute, she wouldn't have carried any of the other girls that were hurt

• now onto Paige

She looks so pretty, her costume was beautiful and she rocked her dance!

• Maddie's walking around the dressing room. Guess that bruise feels better

• awards:

Brooke placed 3rd

Chloe placed 2nd

Paige placed 1st! SHE WON!!!!!!

• Abby hugged Paige and gave her a kiss on her head. HOW CUTE AND HEARTWARMING

• "we came, we saw, we kicked some Texas butt"

It was a little competetion, most the kids might not even be from there. But ok Abby, if you say so

• ending it off with Abby asking Jill if they're going to stay, be a team player, etc. with Jill replying "well, that's something Kendall and I will discuss"

Of course Jill, of course. See you next episode

[psycho-dancemoms]

Dance moms rewatch: (S2/E5) Brooke's back

Place: Starbound, Long Island, New York

• awwww Brooke invited Abby out to ask her if she could come back to dance

• Abby is disappointed that she didn't speak up. Which I can understand. But at least she tried something new and figured out she didn't like it

• "I think she was born to dance"

It's a shame that she doesn't dance anymore. I would've loved to see her follow her dream

• Kendall is OFF probation

• Leslie thinks Payton will be apart of the team too. Even though she's so COCKY

• "I'm not nervous because I know I can be as good as them"

YES LITTLE KENZIE, SPILL THAT CONFIDENCE

• pyramid:

BROOKE

Chloe Maddie

Kendall Paige Nia Mackenzie

• lmao Payton thinks she's on top. I'M ABOUT TO CRY IN LAUGHTER

• PAYTON DIDN'T MAKE THE PYRAMID AND IS CRYING. FUCKING DEAD 💀

• "now, my little Kendall fits right in perfectly"

ICONIC!!!!!!!

• Brooke is on top and has a solo

• "we have been so loyal to you"

Leslie, Payton only started dancing there when she was 11. Ooh 3 whole years. School is longer than that

• "you can keep your Kendall"

Well she hand picked her, soooo

• Brooke has a solo (that she MUST win)

Mackenzie has a solo

Group number is high energy

• group is called Avalanche

• Kelly and Christi both felt bad for Payton, because she's a kid and it was taken away from her. Jill could care less, lmao

• "there is no way Brooke should've been on top of the pyramid. It should've been Maddie"

Mmmmmmm, Brooke deserved the top spot because she spoke up to come back and she missed her chance last time for cheer tryouts

• "I'm disappointed Kendall doesn't have a special part"

Well Jill, you're going to be mad often

• oooooooooomg Maddie was told she did something wrong? Just for a split second? WHATTTTTT!!!!!

• "there's a hierarchy. There's the top of the pyramid, there's the bottom. There are different levels of dancers"

But Kendall shouldn't be on the middle or top. She should stay on the bottom because at this moment, Nia and Paige are better than her

• lmao, now they're seeing why Jill was ran out all the other studios

• Brooke's solo is an acrobatic solo called Starry Night

• Mackenzie's solo is also acrobatic and it's called The Party Starts Right Now

• "I want Mackenzie to be where Maddie was at 7"

She's literally the youngest keeping up with the older girls. So I'd say she's a bit more advanced. BUT if you wanted her to be "where Maddie was", how about you train her like Maddie. Give her lyrical and contemporary, not just acro

• the group dance is a "play on cheerleading". Guess she won't let that go

• Paige has a special part. She will be the only one on stage in the beginning

• "you gotta work your way up from a background dancer"

"I thought I did"

Jill, it's your child. Not you. Kendall has been there for what? A month? Be present, everyone else danced there since they were 2-5

• "Kendall can do everything their kids can do"

She can't, but go off Jill

• "I can't stand seeing her stand in the back"

She says as she's right next to Maddie up front

• OH FUCKING JILL. Complaining that Maddie, Chloe and Paige have a special part. She chose every other person, chill

• Kelly invited everyone over to celebrate Brooke coming back

• "I said how come everyone except Nia and Kendall have a special part"

NO YOU DIDN'T

• arguments started when Jill came

• "you know what Jill, you're just like her" *points to Melissa*

FUCKING OOF

• Melissa is leaving and said "come on ViVi"

VIVI?!

• "we're not willing to sell our soul to the devil"

Lmaoooooo

• Kenzie wished to be in the group dance, but loves her solo

• Abby is crying over Mackenzie nailing her routine

• lmao, JIll has a "surprise". It's personal massages

• "Kendall came up with the idea"

BITCH SHE DIDN'T

• "Chloe is second"

And Kendall is dead ass LAST. Fuck off Jill

• Abby yelling at the driver who knows what he's doing. I bet he hates his life

• "I could do a better job driving them"

Then do it Abby

• Kelly told Jill to shut up and now she's mad. "You don't tell people to shut up". THEN STOP COMPLAINING

• Kenzie looks SO CUTE

Look at her costume. Adorable!!!!!

• Kenzie's solo is so entertaining. Such a talented little bean

• Brooke's costume, I LOVE

It's better than the other ones she's gotten so far

• Brooke did great for being gone for 2 weeks

• Kenzie for 1st place in Top Junior Petite

• Brooke placed 3rd in Teen Division

• Abby wasn't mad at Brooke. She still thought she could've won the whole thing if she given it 100%

• "so now Jill is going to be Abby's official makeup fixer, and it's gonna be like putting lipstick on a pig"

Bruh 💀

• "now who's kissing whos butt"

Still you Melissa. Except now you have competetion

• Jill finally admitted Christi kicked her out and she didn't "storm out" like she claimed

No one was fighting with you though, only Jill

• ooohhhhh, Avalanche costumes look CUTE

• Maddie is happy Brooke is back, awwww

• the group is so entertaining. They did a great job

• group placed 2nd

• JILL IS ON PROBATION!

Dance moms rewatch: (S2/E4) no one likes a bully

Place: Hollywood vibe

• of course, stating off with corrections

• pyramid:

Chloe

Maddie Kenzie

Kendall Nia Paige

• MY HEART, CHLOE FINALLY ON TOP

• Chloe and Maddie have a solo

Chloe, Maddie and Kendall have a trio

• it's weird seeing Paige on the sideline and and not in the trio

• the group routine is about bullying

• OH HELL NO. "Nia you're going to be the bully". SHES SO FUCKING SWEET TO HER BONE

• they brought in Payton. Jill thinks Payton is going to steal Kendall's spot. NOT EVERYTHING IS ABOUT KENDALL, JILL

• Maddie, Chloe and Paige have been in that trio since Paige was 4. That means Chloe would've been 3 and Maddie 2...but didn't Maddie join when she was 4?

• Nia has to push Maddie. I'm uncomfortable for her

• Payton is now the bully. Holly sounds sick though, like she's losing her voice

• every week abby says she wants Chloe to have confidence

Now she tells her "I don't know why your mom says you don't have confidence. You are the cockiest kid I've ever worked with"

WHO FUCKING SAYS THAT

• "she just doesn't have a brain in her head"

BITCH YOU DONT HAVE A BRAIN IN YOUR HEAD

• Brooke made the cheer team, so Kelly invited the girls over to celebrate

• "I really want to beat Chloe and get back to the top of the pyramid"

Talk about COCKY

• "my name is Leslie"

Fuck off

• "Kendall fits right in"

Yes, she's short like the rest. But she's not as good

• Abby making Paige run the music is heartbreaking

Then saying "I think she would've been better as an actress, she just doesn't comprehend...."

An actress/actor has to have a decent memory to remember their lines. But yes, Paige would've made a great actress if she chose that route

• Leslie asking why they want to be at the studio. Because their daughters want to dance with their friends. Why the fuck do you want to be on the dance team Leslie? To get your irrelevant kid famous. You decided to come After the show took off

• "no ones holding a gun to your head"

They have a contract. That's basically holding a gun to her head. They can't leave or they get sued

• "this is like prostitots: the sequel"

YEP

• "Payton, she's older. She would be like the trashy, mean, bad girl that's up to no good at catholic school"

I-

• Jill is all snooty, thinking she's above everyone else

• Jill bribed Kendall with $20

• the trio costumes are cute. But poor Chloe. There was a microphone where she was supposed to sit

Damn Abby, you should've known. Don't blame Chloe for not sitting on that. Maddie should've moved in closer to Kendall, so Chloe could sit next to them. Even Kendall had room to a move over. But of course, it's Chloe's fault! 🙄

• Maddie solo is cute. But you can clearly see her traveling

• "I thought Maddie looked like a professional"

She traveled! Pros don't travel

• Chloe's costume is so cute here too!

• they're all so precious. I hate Abby constantly pins each other against each other

• "Chloe's solo, I saw a few things she did wrong"

MADDIE LITERALLY FUCKING TRAVELS

• Payton is cocky too

• "she destroys you"

No Abby, YOU destroy Chloe

• "if you don't know yet, you're never going to know it"

She's not used to the fast pace, jeez

• Leslie refusing to let the girls run the number. Holly telling her let them run it so they don't get on stage and look like fools

Now people understand why Queen Holly is a Queen and Leslie is garbage

• Abby, you should've had Maddie's hair in space buns. You knew pigtails were a problem since day one, don't act like that shit is new and no, only YOU watched to see if the sign stays on Maddie. Because that's your excuse to creep on Maddie

• Leslie blaming Melissa and saying that Payton was "better than Kendall". Sure, she is. But don't fucking say it in front of her

• "I thought I was better than most people"

"You thought you were better than most people in this group?....that's cocky"

"Well that's how I feel"

And this is why we say HOP THE FUCK OFF PAYTON

• but all in all, the group wasn't horrendous

• Chloe didn't place

Maddie got first

But what do we expect, they rig comps anyways

• trio did not place, or got third

I'm confused on that one

• group did not place

Can't say I'm surprised

• of course abby had to say more shit to Chloe. It's pretty clear why she lost her passion

• Payton crying because she got called out on her shit

[psycho-dancemoms]

Dance moms rewatch: (S2/E3) Brooke's turning point

Place: starbound, New Jersey

• pyramid:

Brooke

Chloe Maddie

Kenzie Paige Kendall Nia

• Kenzie has a solo

• Maddie had the highest score in the competetion. Yet they didn't show she had a solo

• "Maddie why aren't you on top?"

"I actually want someone else to be on the top, because I want someone else to see what that feels like, and be really happy, and getting the star of the group dance"

Mmmmmm I don't think that's the reason you aren't on top Maddie

• "maddie should've been on top because she won"

How, when no solo was shown. Brooke won, she deserves to be up top

• Chloe is above Maddie for the first time!

• "Abby wants me to be a role model for the other girls a d I don't know if I really want to be a role model for them"

Same Brooke

• Kenzie's solo is called "my parade"

Maddie solo is called "lights, camera, action"

Chloe's solo is called "don't catch me"

• "things will be a bit different this time. Maddie and Chloe will go head to head"

When do they not go head to head though? Abby always puts them head to head

• group is called "born to dance"

• "it's provocative, yet beautiful and wonderous"

They're a bunch of kids, they shouldn't be dancing provocativly

• "it's not fair that Maddie wasn't at the top, but I want to give another kid a chance"

Melissa you are not Maddie. You are not Abby. None of the pyramid placement is about you, but your child

• "I think the pyramid sucks"

But when Maddie is on top it's the best thing, right Melissa? Hypocrite

• cheer tryouts are the same day as the competetion

• I wonder if Abby is going to have some ptsd flashbacks of when Kelly quit dance to join cheer

• "Mackenzie, did you know that last year you were a little baby"

What do you mean? She still is a little baby

• "if Maddie came to me and said she wanted to Perdue something else besides dance, I wouldn't allow her to do it in the middle of any seasons"

I think what Melissa meant was "my precious Maddie better always do dance or I'll kill myself". Get it? Because dramatic mother makes a dramatic daughter

• Chloe is so polite. My heart 🥺

• Abby just realized Brooke wasn't there. How doesn't she know

• "Maddie, turn the leg out!"

Second time she actually yelled at Maddie

• Abby decided that there's no group number. Calling Christi an asshole because she supports Brooke's decision. She just keeps pushing that line

• Maddie feels "bad" she's doing Brooke's part. Oh hunny, if you want us to believe it, don't say it smiling

• guess they are going to competetion

• "Kelly's not here? You really know who the important person in your house is"

Abby why would you tell a CHILD that

• BUS DRIVER JIM!!!!!!

• Cathy is going to New Jersey, because of course she is

• "remember Brooke never existed"

Lord she's really against Brooke for being like her mother

• little Kenzie is precious

Her solo was so entertaining too 🥺

• Cathy saying she "reserved" a row. Woman it's a competetion, there's no reservations

• Chloe's solo and costume are so beautiful

My literal heart 🥺🥺🥺

• Maddie was entertaining. But I just can't get over Chloe's solo

Such a cute costume

• of course Gia is only there when Maddie gets off and walks with her

• Brooke made cheer!

• Kenzie's solo "bigger isn't better" won......

BUT WAIT this weeks dance is called "my parade". THEY CALLED A WHOLE ASS DIFFERENT DANCE NAME

• Maddie placed third

Chloe won first

My whole ass heart, CHLOE DESERVED FIRST. She was beautiful, FLAWLESS

• "I really don't care that Chloe beat Maddie"

Meanwhile a minute before "Maddie was flawless, the judges must be dumb"

• "Abby said the reason Maddie didn't win was because she looked professional"

No, the reason she didn't win was because Chloe danced better at this competetion

• "Maddie was amazing, Chloe screwed up"

Fuck off abby, CHLOE WAS FLAWLESS BITCH

• "you have to prove Brooke is worthless and doesn't mean anything"

Real mature flabby Abby

• vivi was on for a split second and then the 15 year olds danced while she ran on and off around them

• I love the costumes for this group

Look how beautiful!

• Maddie was a count late. But Abby won't yell at her for that

They all have their legs straight and Maddie was late 🤷🏼‍♀️

• still a beautiful group dance. Such a shame Brooke wasn't in it

• OOF candy apples got EIGHTH

ALDC won first. Of course they did, the dance was beautiful, mostly clean and they didn't use a human prop

• Cathy looks shook

• "the ugly bee costume"

It wasn't THAT ugly

• Cathy constantly insulting Christi, but gets mad when she says "bitch"

• "Cathy wrapped her icy, cold, boney, little hand around me. It was like the grim reaper was holding onto my wrist"

I'm convinced Cathy died and came back

[psycho-dancemoms]

Dance moms rewatch: (S2/E2) return of the candy apples

Place: Columbus Ohio

• wait a minute. They played a clip of the sassy girl group and it said "I'm a sexy girl" on the captions

LIFETIME THEY ARE CHILDREN

• "Cathy, she's like a cold sore that keeps coming back"

Christi!!!!

• pyramid:

Maddie

Chloe Nia

Paige Brooke Kenzie Kendall

• "I'm really sad I'm at the bottom of the pyramid"

Did you think mediocre needs to be placed higher? You didn't even place

• Kenzie is at the bottom because she "can't keep up with the older girls"

She just turned 7, she's doing the best she can!

• Brooke is on the bottom because she cried from being yelled at

• Paige is at the bottom for being told to sit down on the bus "32 times!" When all the other girls were playing too

• group dance is called "bad apples"

• "I'm not putting a rat in my hair. And a snood? What's a snood?"

I had no clue what that was until the episode aired. So I fee you Kenzie

• Brooke is doing a solo

• "I didn't think she *kendall* would be on the bottom"

Jill......she's where she needed to be

• oh no Jill complaining about Kendall learning the solo in 3 days and her music switching the night before. As if every mother and child on the competition team hasn't experienced at least one of those things

• "basically Maddie, Nia or Chloe have to be bumped down for it to be okay"

"Well....sort of, yeah"

Fuck off jill, KENDALL IS WHERE SHE NEEDS TO BE

• Jill thinks Kendall is better than Nia. Kendall fucking SUCKS

• Christi suggesting that Jill to talk to Abby. SAVAGE

• "I liked watching Abby shut Jill down"

Same Kelly, same

• Cathy wanting to show their "technique"...what she meant was use 14 year olds and throw ViVi and Justice in there as props to bring the age down

• Christi pulling out the competition book because Jill conviently forgot that Kendall was beaten by both Maddie and Chloe

• Brooke's solo is called "the garden of eden"

• "you got to dance like you want a puppy. You got to earn your puppy"

• THE ICONIC "I cut my finger on my moms wing *ring* I hope I can still dance"

ICONIC 👏🏻

• "just a minor tragedy"

It's a little cut, don't be dramatic Cathy

• CHRISTI PULLING OUT THE COMPETETION BOOK 💀

• no one is intimidated by Kendall, sorry Jill

• "Maddie no more stupid mistakes up there"

WOW, Abby said something to Maddie ONCE

• Kelly brought the props and Brooke didn't know she brought a hat. Now Abby is mad because they were prepared

• "you just told Nia that her mom didn't love her"

• "is she drunk? Are you drunk?"

All she did was bring the props

• Kelly questioning basically everything and everyone is just staring at her

• Christi, Melissa and Kelly gossiping about Jill. Christi heard Jill has been kicked out of the studios

• Abby, STOP YELLING AT BUS DRIVER JIM

• of course Melissa and Jill bought Abby a gift

• Cathy invited them to a party....mmmmm Cathy stop

• the presidential sweet is horrendous

• I HATE the costumes and the "snood" and the "rat"

LORD HELP THEM

• "I design the costumes"

Then give them a full costume and accessories. Stop forcing the moms to make them and buy accessories

• the dance itself was cute, BUT THE RAT AND SNOOD

• wow Cathy, a bunch of 14/15 year olds against mostly 8-10 year olds

• of course abby just HAS to tell the girls they all sucked before awards

• candy apples placed second

ALDC placed first

• Cathy wants to see the scores because her 15 year olds didn't beat 10 year olds 🙄

• Brooke has such a beautiful costume

Just stunning!

• her solo was beautiful

• the competition is questioning Erica's age

• Erica should be in the 13-14 age division because she's 14. January 17, 1997

Brooke is in the right age division. She turned 13 after the cutoff. January 30, 1998

• Cathy got her dancer disqualified. LMAOOOOOO

• Brooke placed first. Of course she did, she did beautifully

• why is Maddie in her "Reflections" costume? It hasn't even been aired yet. They suck at cutting scenes to make it look like the same day

• Cathy tried to poach the moms and then got mad when they didn't want to and got nasty with them
