The moms and girls pack their bags with coordinating vintage floral outfits and grab their Bob Fosse chairs and head to Mohegan Sun. Nia is typecast, Holly fights for her daughter, Babcia is honored, and Cathy is somehow the voice of reason. Oh, and Maddie does another beautiful lyrical routine because, what else is new?

Lordy lordy, Kelly's forty... And she might need a little botox, but she and Randy have still got it, baby! Our girls are dancing as *checks notes* victims of bullying and child abduction, Christy faces mortality, Vivi and her swing set steal the spotlight, and Brooke has the ugliest costume of all time. This episode has EVERYTHING! Join us, won't you?

A Broadway casting agent is coming to watch all the girls! (Ahem, just Maddie.) Abby is frantic, the girls can't read, Brooke endures more bodily harm, and our two favorite day drinkers do more day drinking. Oh, yeah, and Cathy seizes her moment.

You get a solo! You get a solo! Maddie gets two solos! It's solos week at the ALDC and things are stacked in Maddie's favor. What else is new? Also, Cathy refuses to ride a bus, Melissa loses her cool, Paige stalls out, and Christi reaches her breaking point (again). Join us for Season 1, Episode 4, Stealing the Show.

Kelly might have her mansion and her man, but she's not a star... Will Brooke repeat her mistakes and settle for suburban bourgeois boredom? Or will she prevail, injuries and all? We follow the girls through the pitfalls of acrobatics and adolescence. Join us, won't you?

Inspired by the scantily clad dancers of Phoenix, Arizona, Abby decides to go edgier with costumes and a routine that leave the mothers (and the judges) scandalized. We're going on a trip through Amish country in the sleaziest little outfits you've ever seen in your life. Join us, won't you?
