TLDR

It’s a mythical world as long as the lights are on.

What it's about

This documentary series follows the 2023 auditions and subsequent hardships that come with being Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders.

The take

These women put on a mask, are tasked to make people happy, and aren’t doing it for the money because of how little it pays. It’s a striking resemblance to the life of an independent wrestler or a circus freak. And the latter is pretty much how these women are seen by cold and callous higher-ups who seem to only see a bunch of boxes to tick, with admittedly not a lot of specifics to their recruitment process. The insights from talking heads reveal some character from both what’s said and unsaid, and prep time and dance performances get their fair share of the spotlight. So, we can’t say there is no journey to follow—it's a frustrating one—but it’s tough to maintain an extended interest given the ceiling of substance here.

What stands out

“There was a little bit more weight in her face.”
