Episode 3
I'm sure everyone is as excited as I am to see this episode today.  The "premiere" of the episode is in the evening on Saturday 8pm central/9pm eastern.  However the actual first airing is at 2pm central/3pm eastern on Saturday.  I'm not sure why CMT does this unless it's to accomodate other times zones across the world.  The DCC are internationally acclaimed and popular everywhere.  The sneak peek article for this episode on the DCC website makes it sound like this will be an interesting show to watch.  Tune in!!

    oh yeah, I also loved it when Judy, or was it Kelli who said Lacy just needed to break a nail or something....I just about choked laughing.

    As I said in an earlier post "somewhere", I think Judy has gained a little weight...most likely her age is beginning to show, but it certainly looks ok on her. Also, when I saw the person doing the body fat testing tell that girl she needed to gain weight, I thought Jay was going to faint....I could just "feel" him restraining himself. It has always seemed to me to be the policy of DCC to keep the girls "way below" what the good body fat size would be.

    Is it just me or was anyone else noticed how absolutely fantastic Judy looked? I always thought she looked nice, but this season she seems to have done something a little different. She glows on camera.

    I assumed the variance in the results from last year was due to the fact that it was a different type of test. It seems like each year they try a different type of test.

    If I remember correctly the girls BMI had to be no more than 15% last year. So according to some of the ones shown (if not most) they were almost double that. And the girl that was told to gaini weight was jsut perfect according to last years standards.

    Baltgirl, the bikinis were for me and Kelli was just wearing ankle weights I believe.

    You know, every year they've measured body fat they do a different method. The first season (Brooke and Tobie's rookie year) they did the bioelectric impedance analysis scale. The next year (Abigail, Ally, and Meredith's year) they used the Bod Pod, which is the giant egg they sat in. Last year they did hydrostatic weighing, which is also the dunk tank. For this year's DEXA scan, it can and usually is done in street clothes. I know it's probably ironic that I say this, but when I saw them doing the scans and consults with the doctor in their bikinis, I thought it was a bit exploitative.

    The funny thing is that when my husband caught the end of the episode with me, he looked at Kelli and said "Did she gain a few pounds this year or what?"

    I think everyone on this forum has seen the show in past years. Has Kelli ever said "you're too thin, you need to gain weight"? That's a semi rhetorical question. I have never heard her say it but I can't recall everything she has said for the last for years of MTT. DCC Rule #437, It's better to look good than to feel good. Before your keyboard starts smoking that's just a joke - sort of.

    Some of the things that Jay has said about weight have really rubbed me the wrong way. Despite what Hollywood says you can be too thin and it's not good at all when you see a woman that is. There have been a few of the DCC that I won't name that I've thought they needed to gain at least 10 pounds if not more.

    The girls with amazing finals auditions and amazing dance technique/training aren't necessarily the ones you see at the top. They all are great entertainers and sometimes cute acting and less dancing can get you more points. Girls like Justine, Michelle and Megan (who was at the bottom), and others have dance training, just like some have tumbling/cheer training with less dance. I don't know how they scored them either. It must be just what the judges liked. Sometimes judges don't know the difficulty of actual technical dance. Would be great to see their solos all on a dvd.

    DollyMix commented on the Episode 2 thread that Megan Martinez had an amazing finals audition but she is last in scoring (I couldn't see if there was anyone on her left). That really makes me wonder how they scored the ladies at finals.

    The only thing I didn't like about the newest episode was when the doctor told one girl (can't remember who it was) that she was just fine, she was lean and she wouldn't recommend she loose weight and Jay said "but, everything shows up in those tiny little uniforms so we can get you leaner" or something to that affect. Good Lord, the doctor just said she didn't need to loose weight and it apparently went over Jay's head.

    I have to also say that during auditions Jay seems so quiet and very, very shy. Even when he is asking a question he stumbles a bit, etc.

    I've known people that I'm pretty sure their brains were 100% fat.

    A couple of those women were underweight and at least one of them looked it too. I wonder what type of plan Jay has for a candidate that needs to gain weight?

    jgp3, that is funny! But most people don't know that the brain is comprised mostly of fat, about 60%. So a low fat diet, while good probably for appearing fit for the DCC uniform, not so good for the brain. I think the focus should be about being healthy as well as being fit and I was glad to see that doctor focus more on that. There is such a thing as healthy fat that our bodies need to survive. I used to be an aerobics instructor and our certifications required knowledge in nutrition as well as anatomy.
    Thanks StrawberryWine, yes, I was able to get a complete recording of Episode 3 last nite at 9pm. The rain had stopped by then.

    It was said that the DEXA can measure fat on the brain. My guess is that if you have fat on the brain the only way to get rid of it would be to think about exercise or low calorie foods.

    For me this episode was very interesting yet enjoyable. Kelli through in some new interesting twists this year, with the big one being the seating arrangements........While I was suprised that Justine did not score as well as she has in year's past, it was not shocking given that the fact that she did not appear to get many "yes" votes when polled by the judges. I did not see Kelli or Charlotte raise their hands. Not sure about Judy. In her defense though, Kelli did say (I am paraphrasing) that on the spirit of the DCC, she is an "A" plus plus performer. I am still glad she made the squad!

    I really have to agree with jgp3 on this one, Kelli and Judy looked great in this episode. And you know what, they really have a wonderful eye for the right talent needed for the DCC. IMO, I thought their critques were right on the money for the strugglers. Kelli was so funny when she said that Lacy needs to just break a nail or something (lol)! Charolotte even hit the nail on the head about Lacey early on.

    Just wish they would have shown more of the introductions, and big sister pairings. This show really should have been an hour!

    Dee, that signal could not have gone out at a worser time! Hope you were still able to record the evening show?

    Are we seeing a kinder, gentler Kelli this year? They missed a golden opportunity to educate the public on a proper BMI. I think a one hour special solely on body scans would have been very educational ;-)

    Now I remember her name...Cathleen Williams. She's pretty hot and she reminds me of my ex who stuck with me through it all. She was there when I lost jobs and lost at gambling and every time I felt ill. I was convinced that she was the source of all my bad luck.

    Oh and if I saw it right, Grace scored the highest from the training camp candidates. If I'm right, then I answered one of my own questions from another thread.
