About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an addictive teen series mixing dance training with relationships and real-life issues, similar to High School Musical: The Musical: The Series; not for you if you want minimal romance drama or only nonstop performances.
Pros: inspiring coming-of-age energy; strong dance focus; heartfelt friendships and romance | Cons: lots of teen drama; some repetitive story beats; lead can annoy
