That would actually be pretty amusing, like the movie about the dude who lives at an airport or the time Callie was living in the Seattle Grace basement on Grey’s. Is this guy ever at home? He must live at the Shack. Emily, who has defied her poverty and acquired a cell phone between “Where’s Kaylie?” and now (maybe Joe bought it for her?), dials Damon, who answers from Pizza Shack. Meanwhile, Emily stands off to the side glaring at all the reporters not giving a shit about her. Why do you think hardcore gym fans find it so delicious when gymnasts don’t know they’re being filmed? You get to hear Kerri Strug complaining about her beam and Carly Patterson giggling at her competitors eating mat. As long as I can remember, elite gymnasts really are pros at bullshitting to the camera. He asks Kaylie what it is and she rudely blows him off, prompting Pa Cruz to pull her aside and lecture her about not being Miss Congeniality. He digs through Kaylie’s bag and finds a water bottle, lip gloss, and Carter’s Necklace of Luv. This guy seriously reminds me of a game show host.

No longer would I put myself through that torture.“And if you guess the correct price of Kaylie’s gym bag contents, you win a new Land Rover and all-expenses-paid trip to Boulder!”Ī suit-clad guy starts interviewing Kaylie for a TV segment called “What’s in your gym bag?” In my mind I keep hearing those Capital One “What’s in your wallet?” commercials. I barely made it half way through the season before I was too disgusted to continue. Excuse me, what? That was the last straw for me. They even had a gymnast make herself puke up her breakfast because it was "too fattening". Episode after episode, they had parents allowed on the competitive floor, gymnasts conspiring against each other, girls scaring away an urban gang with cartwheels, scratched routines being performed, and a whole lot of other craziness. That's the kind of dismount I want to see. Imagine Olympic All Around gold medalist Nastia Liukin, concentrating on her dismount, taking a long, deep breath, pounding down the beam, propelling herself into the air, pulling off a 2.5 twisting back layout, sticking the landing, and making the whole thing look easy. The second I saw the "best beam routine in the country" end with a cartwheel back tuck dismount, I lost any remaining respect I had for the whole show. The pilot episode of the show, a crucial time for the viewer to judge a show on it's believability, features nationally ranked, elite gymnasts competing compulsory level skills. One huge problem I had with the show right off the bat was the content of the gymnast's competitive routines. It was immediately clear that the producers don't have a clue what real gymnastics is like. It was impossible to just sit back and enjoy the show without being constantly distracted by all the inaccuracies around the sport of gymnastics. ABC Family and the creators of Make It or Break It accomplished exactly the opposite of that. You'd think that with the show centering on the lives of four Olympic hopefuls, the producers would aim to create a program that real gymnasts could get behind and appreciate. And I haven't even gotten to the gymnastics part of the review yet. The comedic scenes are ruined by the actor's lack of timing, the joyful scenes seem fake with their plastered on smiles and school girl giggling, and the dramatic scenes are just about as believable as the surprised look on a kids face when he unwraps a brand new pair of socks for Christmas. Their actors and actresses have about the same amount of acting knowhow as I do-none. I've been forced to sit through episodes of Secret Life of the American Teenager and Pretty Little Liars, so I know ABC Family accepts nothing but the "highest" quality actors. If you're going to watch this show, expect horrendous acting. It is silly, it is inaccurate and it is above all offensive to gymnasts. Make It or Break It is just about as bad as they come.

I will never understand how even non-gymnasts could tolerate one full episode of this show, let alone get invested in the characters and the story lines as some of my friends did.
I couldn't get through the first five minutes of it without feeling offended by the mockery it makes of the sport of gymnastics. I have never been so wrong-and if you knew me you'd know just how horrible this show is if I'm admitting I was wrong about something. What could be better than a TV show that I could actually relate to? I knew this show would become an instant favorite of mine. So, when I saw the commercials for this show, I was pretty pumped. When you spend 20+ hours per week in a smelly gym, you don't have time to waste on angsty teen dramas.
