Anyone watch Dance Moms?

Chloe's mom drives me crazy. She's a good dancer, but still needs work. I like the friendly competition between her and Maddie.

It was nice to see Abbie having some fun with the girls. She seemed almost human lol.

(I watched both last week's and last night's episode back to back, so I might be confusing the episodes).

Re: Anyone watch Dance Moms?

  • I do. I haven't watched this week's episode yet.

    Maddie is so talented!

    I can't stand Kathy.

    I used to go to a similar studio..watching the show makes me miss dance so much!

  • I watch also, but this week's in onmy DVR. Maddie is very talented. It's a shame that her mom just sees her as a dancing money bag.

    I'll come back later to discuss this week's episode.

  • I have it DVR'ed and need to watch it tonight!

    I think Maddie is a snot. 

  • I can't stand Kathy, she must be throwing a ton of money at Abby so that she can stay at that studio.  I can't imagine Abby putting up with that sh!t otherwise (because her daughter isn't a stand out dancer either).  I also wonder what kind of husband puts up with her at home.  He must travel for business a lot or something.

    I think Chloe is a doll, her mom can be a little intense at times.

    I'm not sure if Maddie is stuck up or if she is just being eight years old and doesn't know the meaning of being humble yet.

  • Love this show. I think Kathy is a wack job! How can she be a dance teacher and think that Vivi is a good dancer? Im not a dance teacher and I know that kid can't dance.

    Maddie is amazing, but she knows she is and I don't like that about her. I really like Kelly and Holly- they seem to be some what in touch with reality.

    It was nice to see Abby having fun with the girls, but she needs to stop telling them bad things about thier moms- you cant bad mouth the moms to their kids.

    I wonder how these moms can just bounce from FL, to Vegas, to LA, to Tahoe- don't they have stuff going on at home, Holly works as well- how does that work?

  • Have you ever noticed how Chloe's mom never smiles while she's performing and the other mom's next to her are.

  • I do not understand why these moms pay Abby to put their children through such shiit. Abby is such a ***. There is no need to act the way she does to effectively teach. I don't think she's very good. I side eye them for putting up with it simply to argue that their children are winning and that's what it takes- Especially because they aren't winning! And why do they need to learn a new dance every week? They have gone on stage the past few weeks unprepared for a reason.

    I got a serious chuckle out of Kathy's dance studio. The moms there look pretty rough. I'd love to see a show down between the two groups of moms, ha. I think it's seriously wrong that she sent Vivi there and sat in on weeks of practices/competitions, just to go back to her studio with the intention of using the knowledge against Abby.

    And um, a little boy named Justice? Seriously? The name is bad all around, and on a little boy it's even worse.

  • I just started watching it purely for entertainment. Sometimes I want to kill some of the moms, but in the end I'm sure things are dramatized for the TV show. The main thing that worries me is the girls' development in such an hostile environment, where parents are cussing out other parents, dance coaches are complaining about their moms, etc. Each girl is very talented, though in different ways. I often see the pushy nature of moms with the gymnasts that I coach, and I find it interesting to compare the two. I do think Cathy is out to draw attention to her studio by having Vivi-Anne there.
  • Just watching last night's episode now..wow, Candy Apple's moms DO look trashy! Sheesh!

    How on earth can Kathy think that Vivi is on the "track to titles"?!? 

    Must be that mom thing..thinking her child is perfect and all while being blind :/ 

     

    What a surprise that her MOM is sending Vivi to Hollywood.

    ITA. Candy Apples looked a little run down. I feel so bad for Vivi. She doesn't like to dance and isn't very good at it, so why does Cathy keep pushing her? Bringing her to Hollywood with big time dancers will just embarass her.

    I danced until my sophomore year of college and definately miss it..

  • I feel bad for Chloe because it seems like she really isn't that hurt that Maddie does better than she does.  It must be embarrassing to be put up as her competition all the time when she just wants to dance.

  • My 11 year old competes in dance and I like watching Dance Moms. Our group isn't like the moms on DM, but I've definitely seen some that were.

    I feel bad for Vivi-Anne because I don't think she really enjoys dancing and she isn't very good at it. 

    Maddie has loads of talent and I will be interested to see what she does in the future.

  • I am confused.

    Cathy/Vivi live in Ohio? What are they doing going to Pittsburg for dance classes? What?
