If you enjoy great choreography and great dancers, this show is very entertaining. The show is not for people who want to see nice nice nice... Abbey can be very harsh in her way of handling both the moms and the kids and does not like to be told any opinions other than those that seam to match her own point of view. The moms can get out of hand at times as well. The best part of the show is watching the kids dance. There is a lot of unnecessary yelling through out the program, but that's Abbeys style, she wants perfection all of the time and wont settle for less. Sadly, there can only be one winner so even if her kids end up in first and second, the kid who comes in second didn't do a good enough job. Abbey wants her kids to be stars, she wants them to excel and maybe that's the only way she has ever tried to achieve that goal. For the kids, they are under constant pressure and stress so many people think its over the top. I think much of the audience would enjoy seeing the kids more, the dancing more and the interactions between Abbey and the kids during training. Abbey seams to have more going on this year when the cameras aren't rolling. She seams to get upset easier and angry easier. I hope that she will read her reviews and realize her audience respects what she has done with the kids and would like to see more of the kids, the dancing and their interactions, more than the BS with the moms. I would rate this higher, but the yelling and disrespect lowered my score
