Oh yay!!! We have really enjoyed this series.

I must mention that it was from watching "Breaking Pointe" that my husband really realized what dedicated athletes dancers are. He now supports our daughter 100% with her ambitions.

I and my DD 10 have been home sick with the flu this week and we were able to finally watch this show on Hulu.
My favorite was watching the dancing and reahearsals. It is interesting to watch the 'fashion' of what they wear in rehearsals. The relationship stuff was a little much for my 10 DD and she would just play on the ipad during those scenes.
I would love to have a conversation with the mother of Rex since she has 5 dancing children, including 3 boys. Congratulations to her.
Maybe in the next season they will talk about the journey these dancers have been on- before arriving at Ballet West.
It would be great to see old recital clips/competition clips. I know you can watch youtube for YAGP/Beckanne, but weaving it into the story would be fun to see, and maybe them talking about their SI's etc.
Overall I can't wait for the next season.

CW has announced their summer schedule - the second season of Breaking Pointe will premiere on Monday, July 9th at 9pm EDT. I'm looking forward to it! I wonder if they will feature the same dancers.
