User Reviews

I want Monica to be proud of me

When I started watching this show I had absolutely no interest in cheerleading whatsoever but someone I trusted had suggested that I give it a go.

In 6 short hours I went from disinterested to a total nervous wreck given to fits of ugly crying and loving everything that years of American cinema had taught me to despise.

What happened to Sherbs' basket? Will Jerry ever make mat? When will Morgan point her toes on a full out? Can anyone save Gabi from her own parents?

Can Navarro triumph at Daytona?

Maybe it's slightly overlong but investment in the first three episodes truly pays off in the last three....

....and that last episode.......

......I seem to have something in my eye again ......
