I had never heard of this show, so I didn't expect much. It came up in my recommendations and damn, I was surprised at how good it was. The preview really doesn't do it any justice. I thought the preview was kinda cringe, because you don't know any of the characters I guess? I got really into this, and I'm very sad to hear that Netflix cancelled it all together, because it didn't blow up. I think if they would have spend a bit on marketing that this could've been about as big as family guy.

I was expecting something cringy like big mouth, but it's really touching Rick and Morty levels of funniness.

There are definitely a bunch of unnecessary cheesy scenes that are on the verge of cringe. It definitely got better throughout the whole series.

The cheesy flat characters that are bullies, the cheesy pretty girl that is a geek and bullied. And a bunch of other things: You'll know it when you watch it. Aside from that, most of the actors are pretty decent. Maybe the mean bully girl was a bit too on the nose and boring.

Would've liked seeing an actual really funky looking model, since they do exist. That would've made up for the cheesiness. Overall it's got a nice message and some of the characters really develop. Some unfortunately stay exactly the same.

Very interesting to see some sort of cult like group, that work incredibly hard to fight for a spot in a cheerleading team. Most of them dedicate their talent to God and Jesus instead of them working incredibly hard.

It's interesting to see American cheerleading culture to its finest. You have to look a certain way, act a certain way and put on (fake) smiles to be able to join this elite group, where you purposely injure your hips, back, feet, etc. They do this to please the coaches/judges, because they can be thrown out of the group whenever the coaches think it's time. Sometimes they don't even give a reason, but just because they like someone else a little bit more.

I respect their hard work and dedication, but it saddens me that these girls are ruining their body and self esteem for validation and (hopefully getting) minimum wage, sometimes less. They are being judged on everything, including: losing or gaining weight, feeling sad or less energetic, nervous or not limber enough.

It is filmed well and is an emotional rollercoaster.
