Hello and welcome to Watch What Crappens. A podcast about all that crap on Bravo that we just love to talk about. I'm Ben Mandelker and joining me today is the one. The only, the wonderful Ronnie Karam, except he's not really joining me here. He's joining me in the past, but the past will be here in a moment. What I'm trying to say is that to

we are recapping the season premiere of Dancing Queens, but this is actually something we recapped when it premiered on our Patreon bonus episode. This was a bonus episode. There were like a million shows on at the same time. We put this on our bonus episode exclusive to our Patreon peeps, but we really enjoyed Dancing Queens and the season just wrapped up. So we didn't get to recap the whole season, but we did a recap of the premiere.

We also did a recap of the finale, which will be posted on the Crappens feed shortly after this episode is getting posted. So what you're about to listen to here is our recap that was on the bonus episode. It also gives you a little bit of a flavor of maybe something you might find on the bonus episodes. If you are interested in supporting on Patreon, you can support on Patreon. We have a bunch of different tiers.

The most basic tier is the bonus episode. And then after that, there's also the crap is on demand where you get early access to our videos, etc. But we have so much fun with our bonus episodes. Sometimes we just are just gabbling. Sometimes we're recapping shows. Sometimes we're in an airport just talking about the things that we see.

So anyway, enough about that. Let's talk Dancing Queens. This aired again, this recap aired in May on on Patreon. So obviously so much has happened. We hope you enjoy this. And again, stay tuned for our recap of the finale. We do have, by the way, on Patreon, there was one other bonus episode where we kind of talked generally about the show, but it wasn't like a full specific recap. But anyway, I should stop talking.

And here is the recap. Hi everybody. Welcome to the watch what crap is bonus episode. I'm Ronnie. That's been over there. Hello, bin. Hi Ronnie. How are you doing my sweet little munchkin? Oh my god, I'm doing so well. How are you doing? So well as well. Everybody welcome to the show. This is our Dancing Queens bonus. Now there are a lot of shows on Bravo right now.

Literally eight or nine or something that we want to cover. And obviously we can't do that. Sal Dancing Queens is the newest. I mean, look, I've, this is a rough one for us because I've been saying over and over. We have to find a way to make this a main feed show and recap every single episode of it. But unfortunately, we just don't have time.

So we're going to bonus it up this week to just give everybody a taste of what this show is because I did love the show. What did you think, Ben? What were your macro thoughts on this sucker?

I liked it. I liked it. I felt like I feel like it has a lot of potential to be great. I felt I thought the pilot was like, you know, we met some interesting characters and stuff, which was really funny. I was definitely chocolate.

But it kind of felt like a big sizzle reel. It felt like I was watching the thing that they used to sell this show to the network. And I kind of wanted to get into like the meat of the show more. So but I feel like in the second episode, we're going to get into it more.

Because I was sort of like little surprise that they didn't actually have a dance and competition in the first episode. I mean, I guess they're just like it was the cliffhanger. Maybe they just couldn't fit it all in in that first episode. But, but I feel like it has a lot of upside. Like I feel good about it.

I do too. I mean, I was cracking up during this whole thing. And it's funny because it's kind of like what my nieces go through, you know, because they do. Yeah.

volleyball and cheer. And especially with the cheer stuff, because you pay all this money, you have to go to all these classes, you have to have special coaches, you have to have special outfits, you have to have hair and makeup.

And you have to fly to all these different places like at least every month, you know, and then just the money spent and how serious everybody gets and how serious all the moms get.

But this is like ladies are age doing it. And it is really funny. It's like it's a life I've never really seen before and had no idea existed. I didn't know this was a thing.

And I like the casting. I like that we have like the rich one, but the rich, the rich stern one, then we have like the bossy one, who's like very self involved. And then we have like the nice one. And then we have the one who's sort of like the underdog, you know, which in the ones that that would be Leoni and Sabrina and Collette and Donnie.

That's what I was talking about there with that. So I think like the casting is like really good. And then there's another woman we haven't even met yet. Well, I guess I'll come in episode two.

But yeah, I think it's like it's got a lot of potential. You know, I love these sort of these scrappy shows about that kind of go under the radar with Bravo. Like some of them are just like so fun. But like you've said many times, like I've said, this definitely has one season wonder in all over it.

Yeah, I don't see this getting picked up. I don't see this being something that people jump on. But I so far I have high hopes that it will and that it'll go great. But let's see, let's just get into it. Let's see, maybe it will.

So the episode opens up. We see kind of like a trailer for the season. I'm not going to get into that. But one thing that I thought was really funny was that towards the end of the trailer, they're like every weekend is a different competition and a different city and it says New Orleans.

Stanford Atlanta Dallas and I'm like, how did Stanford Connecticut and the next day are like Stanford Connecticut where there's like a Benagons and the World Wrestling Federation, you know, it just was like very funny to me that they just like put up Stanford a big letters like it was a metropolis.
