DCC, no, not the Dems...Cheerleaders!


I just discovered my favorite show is back on CMT! It's kind of ridiculous, and I'm probably the only woman actually watching this show, but the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making the Team is amazing! Yes it might be about "grown up" women trying out for a cheerleading squad. Yes, they run around in skimpy outfits and have a can of hairspray duck taped to their hands. Yes, its flashy and trashy and all things superficial but I LOVE it!


I used to watch this show in college with my roommate and we did not miss an episode. The women are well...let's go with a little airheaded until proven otherwise. It's also an excellent showcasing of Texas style--big hair and big attitude. I love Texas, especially Dallas, and it holds a special place in my heart. My BF lived there for the first year we were dating, I was in VA and he in Dallas. We flew back and forth for months and months but I had the chance to spend a lot of time in Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio--places I would never have visited otherwise. Whenever the show has clips of Dallas sights I can remember flying into the city late on a Friday night and seeing the green building all lit up and the Dallas skyline. I actually grew to love Texas during the course of the year, though it's certainly a state with lots of personality. I always thought it was funny that I was considered a "northerner" from "up there" in Virginia.

  3. No, you're not the only one. I really love this show and have watched every season, but didn't know it had come back on. I'm definitely going to have to set my DVR to CMT for this! I just can't get enough of the head lady (Kelly?). She's just so serious about everything - I love it.
