Came across this by happy accident
tagglemac297 December 2020
I was looking for something new to watch with the girls I babysit, and stumbled across this little gem. Within the first 3 minutes of episode one, both girls (5& addicted to gymnastics, and 2) were sitting down quietly. I can't say the acting is masterful, but the storyline is cute and believable. The gymnastics are beautifully done, and the show is keeping the girls interested while not being so juvenile that an adult can't enjoy it as well. We've only watched 2 episodes, but are already hoping there will be a season 2!

Good show for conversation on girl drama
bethOT26 March 2021
My daughter (also a gymnast, 9yo) watches this. There is indeed a lot of girl drama in it... but I also think this makes for a good conversation piece about good sportsmanship, real friendship, and jealousy if a parent is willing to watch with the child. Otherwise, it's too much. It's like a toned down version of "Mean Girls" to me.

The only other comment I have is that some of the actors aren't very good. I recognize they are child actors, and I don't expect perfection. But I wonder if the pool of candidates is limited because they needed to also be good gymnasts?? Olivia in particular seems to force her lines... they don't feel convincing, even from the mean girl role.

Super dramatic

The show is meant for kids but honestly it grabbed my attention. The acting is exactly what you would expect; dramatic and tense, but at the same time it hooks you. I'm also a sucker for any gymnastics show or movie.

Family Friendly

Great family show! Keeps all on the edge of your seats. Relates to reality of competitions. Being in the school system and having kids I know how easily kids get peer pressures into being mean to one another. :( Waiting for the next seasons to come!!

Hoping Jenny is okay and they can all become a better team! Had my daughter, who is a cheerleader, hooked!!

Thank you for something family friendly and relatable.

Thank you from excited watchers! Again we are really excited and looking forward to finding out if Jenny can still compete!

9/10 just because of some acting issues but all and all great!!

Weak!
the_number-evil_d19 March 2022
My 5 year old daughter watched a few episodes and I watch with her for a while. It's a disaster. The gymnastics is the only redeeming quality, if you could call it that. Poor acting on top of a wobbly script made it almost unwatchable for me. The production value isn't horrible but also isn't good. Many actors feel miscast in their roles. The fake/forced drama was the last straw, I couldn't watch more than one episode.

Bad acting
hp_blair-5750427 May 2021
The way the grandfather reacted when they walked into the apartment when they moved in was awkward, the redhead cannot sing, why did the paramedic ask Jenny if her ankle hurt after she said ow?, She wouldn't have said ow if it didn't hurt, and why is the mother taking credit for the daughter getting friends in the first episode?, you can air a second season now, it's kind of stupid to do one season and then quit. And yes I know that Covid happened which is pretty much under control now..
