[marvelascarletta]

Way more entertaining than I originally expected, I will be coming back for the rest. Good to see original TV shows nowadays.

[Pickleseal_]

It is really cool to see people my age dive into their skills like this. I was in a CTE program in highschool, and it is things like this that allow students to develop their skills and gain hands on learning experience. This competition is truly unique, can’t wait to see more from this series!

[noorraniahamid]

Its so inspirational seeing people live out their dreams to perform as someone who loves singing and dancing but is too shy to express it.
