Thanks for aproving! I'll try to update the OP although I'm not really good at it! The show is AMAZING. Everyone should check it out. It's really nice to have a "gym" scenario, instead of a typical High School. The actresses are great, the families are well-developed... Plus, Gymnastics is the best sport ever. Although it's fiction and can't be 100% accurate, it really portrays what competitive athletes go through.

Yay! I'm glad other people are interested in the show.

I REALLY like all the 4 lead girls, which is weird because normally I have a fav.

Payson is probably my favorite if I had to chose one though.

Lauren will probably be interesting to watch as we'll see her character develop on the show. Kaylie is really sweet and real... Emily reminds me SO much of Alexis Bledel...

I really like everyone's family too.

yay I am soo glad there is a thread for this show. I love the three main girls (kaylie, payson, lauren)
Lauren is probably my favorite but I actually can prolly relate to Payson just as much. Kaylie is just too adorable for words

Its not that I dislike emily but they try too hard to make her an underdog and it irks me, plus the fact that she just doesnt look like a gymnast at all, lol

She's my favorite too. She's so fierce! Payson/Kayle/Emily are my OT3. I love Leo too.

Lauren is my least favorite character. She's practically irredeemable for me.

Payson is SO pretty too. And her little sister, adorable!!!

I think Emily is not your typical underdog you know?? I hope she doesn't become the stereotypical Mary Sue because her character can be better than that...

I think Razor is hotter than Leo... but Kaylie and Leo are adorable as bro/sis!!

The characters are very well-developed for only 3 episodes.

see to me Emily already is too much of a mary sue, its weird bc part of me DOES like her and want to root for her but I am just like COME ON show, I honestly dont dislike her though

I see Lauren as the true underdog tbh, which is why she intrigues me so much. Back when I did sports I was prolly a combo of Lauren and Payson (mostly payson). I think thats why I like the show so much, I did used to do gymnastics but any show that has to do with sports is fun for me to watch bc people deal with athletic pressure in different ways and I def see faucets of ex teammates and myself in the shows characters.

I think I will end up loving this show bc there is really no character I dislike ( a vanessa from GG if you will )

As a gymnast, I was definetly like Kaylie. I love the sport and miss it everyday but I def had other priorities like friends, parties, boys...

Payson is just...inspiring. I love her and I envy her dedication.

I love shows/movies about sports but it's even better when it's gymnastics because that sport is just the hardest, most stressful ever. It's SUCH a tough sport and you have to be very tough...

I like Lauren too but I think they went a bit too far already with her. She was REALLY horrible to Kaylie.

lol I was watching with my sister (who also did gynastics) but she is a D1 swimmer right now and she was/is such a kaylie when it comes to sports/her attitude.

Payson is awesome and soo me (and Im not saying that in an I am awesome way, I just like her on the show), I LOVED how she wore her sweatsuit to the kegger, thats soo me! I also can totally relate to her using her sport as a way to define herself.

IA that Lauren can go a little too far but I think the actress and the connection I feel to her character feeling threatened is too close to home for me not to sympathize with.

I actually didnt mind what she did to kaylie, like it obviously wasnt good but I was more offended with her almsot ratting kaylie out in the pilot.
