Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders S2: Still The Most Toxic Series on Netflix

The highly anticipated second season of America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders has finally hit Netflix, giving viewers an inside look at the world of the iconic NFL dance troupe. However, as fans dive into the latest episodes, a darker side of the show begins to emerge.

Each year, the team undergoes a refresh with a mix of returning veterans and new rookies vying for a spot on the squad. While talent and performance skills are key factors in the selection process, the show also highlights archaic standards of beauty and body image that are concerning.

One particularly troubling aspect is the uniform fittings, where dancers are fitted into outfits with no room for adjustments throughout the year. This lack of flexibility can be problematic for dancers whose bodies naturally fluctuate due to factors like muscle mass changes or bloating.

Despite claims from Director Kelli Finglass that the show has moved away from focusing on body types, comments made during the season suggest otherwise. Remarks about a rookie’s shoulders and torso size raise questions about the emphasis placed on physical appearance.

The show also delves into the personal struggles of some dancers, with one contestant opening up about body image issues stemming from her high school years. Discussions about eating disorders and weight management shed light on the pressures faced by these performers.

Additionally, the judging panel for the final auditions includes individuals with no background in dance or styling, such as a country music singer and a meteorologist. Their comments on the dancers’ appearances come across as inappropriate and objectifying.

While the second season has been praised for a significant pay increase for the dancers, it took a collective effort from the team to make it happen. However, the persistence of body image scrutiny within the squad remains a troubling aspect of the show.

As societal trends towards thinness continue to be normalized, the focus on appearances in America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders only adds to the pressure faced by the dancers. Viewers are left to ponder the impact of such standards on mental health and self-image.

Ultimately, while the new season offers a glimpse into the world of the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders, it also raises important questions about the treatment of performers and the perpetuation of harmful beauty standards. Watch season 2 with caution, as the first few episodes may leave a sour taste in your mouth.

America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders is now available for streaming on Netflix, inviting viewers to explore the highs and lows of life as a professional cheerleader.
