I thought Michelle’s character development from s1-4 was so good tbh. Her being introduced as the best dancer whilst being so shy/modest of her dancing, to the peak of her dancing and being miss nationals soloist twice in a row and destroying the competition, to everything falling apart (and kinda going through what emily did in season 1 to where everything was taken away from her) to season 4 where she became a bit of a dick. Season 4 Michelle felt so realistic and I see people talk about how it was unrealistic for her to act like that, but fr imagine being the BEST female dancer in the COUNTRY twice in a ROW, to not even getting to dance at internationals. She was desperate to redeem herself and should’ve gotten more of a chance to. Apparently they were meant to make her miss internationals soloist before Vic injured herself irl - which would’ve changed heaps of the plot of season 3 imo and could’ve changed the trajectory of a lot of the show
Hey guys, thank you a lot for the engagement this video has garnered, it is flawed in editing however I hope the discussion was worth listening to. Thank you thank you! Be sure to subscribe! Sending positive vibes ur way...
I totally agree that Michelle deserved more Grace while she was going through her emotional struggles. I didn't love her character in season 4, because she became kind of mean spirited, and I think it could be argued that if she had been better supported in season 3, that wouldn't have happened (I know it's just a show, not real life, but I think it shows a realistic depiction of how events in our life and the way people respond to them can change us as a person). I agree that James and Riley's storyline throughout all four seasons is problematic at times, but I have some different thoughts at to why. While yes, I do think Riley was too uptight at times, I also think that she deserved someone who took things more seriously at times. I love James, but in the beginning, I don't completely feel that he "deserved" Riley. (I don't love using that wording, but I couldn't think of another way to say it.) This is why, although the Alfie story line as it's own problems, I can understand why Riley would be attracted to someone who is more mature and grounded, although I know James did a lot of maturing throughout the four seasons. I also hated Ella's character and that whole storyline.
I haven't even watched and just by the title I'm like "yes girll, super true!!!" I HAVE SO MANY THINGS TO SAY ABOUT THIS SHOW AND NO ONE TO TALK ABOUT IT
Most real take ever. They were just a cute couple in season one but that was enough for the entire fandom to get immensely obsessed with them, to the point of ignoring everything wrong with them and not even being capable of understanding why someone wouldn't like their ship
Amanda got a redemption arch in s3 and 4 and I feel so bad for her because they treated her differently all bc of what she did in s2 nobody really gave her a chance and Kate sent her to Sweden without asking especially Kate she treated her horribly
west was such an underutilised and underappreciated character!! he deserved to be a main character and get his own storylines
@@kathryn5631 glad we agree!! ☺️
TNS my favourite "reality show"
lmao! >.

Totally valid. I did not think about that with Riley and James. This is an interesting take! Ty for watching!

YESS I WOULD LOVE A S4-6 ANALYSIS
@@channeloft coming soon!🤭
I can't wait
a nearly 45 minute retrospective and analysis of the best and first 3 seasons of TNS is all I ever needed 😭😭🙏🏼🙏🏼💞💞
@@kyliew99 this makes me so happy, thank you for watching! xx
james and riley should NOT have got back together after james cheated on her with beth!!
@@kathryn5631 THANK YOU SOMEBODY SAID IT! 😭

@@jrlombardi5251 exactly!
urmmmm... you just made my day...
yes there's barely any tns analysis videos
I would love a part 2! my personal favourite season is season 6, but I also love season 9 (the most recent season)
@@kathryn5631 season 6 was quite an entertaining season! can’t wait to talk about it! I haven’t watched s9 as of yet will get to it!
Amanda got a redemption arch in s3 and 4 and I feel so bad for her because they treated her differently all bc of what she did in s2 nobody really gave her a chance and Kate sent her to Sweden without asking especially Kate she treated her horribly
I love TNS and I’m happy there are more long form videos since all we have for now are mockingariana3 and tnswaves. 99.9% of my edits are TNS related
will continue to make more!
@@rainydaylily_ 🥳 this is perfect timing as TNS’ channel started uploading and all that speculation about Season 10
@@micellaragua tns season 10 is confirmed tho
@@jrlombardi5251 I mean this is the time people are talking about it more
TNS had many plot lines I wished happened 😔😔
truly disappointing fr 😣
THE NEXT STEP MENTION 🔥🔥🔥
