Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making the Team

The Journey Begins (9x1)

:

Begin the journey to see who will survive the most demanding dance audition in professional sports. Five hundred ladies will put their dreams on the line as they try to become a famed Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader for the 2014-2015 season. Kelli Finglass, the DCC director, has a mandate to have a squad of 36 -- making this a super competitive year. New to the mix are two celebrity judges -- former DCC and Dancing With the Stars winner Melissa Rycroft and platinum-selling country music recording artist Neal McCoy. Quickly, it becomes clear to all the judges that the level of talent is very high as they witness jaw-dropping dance moves. This means tough choices must be made to whittle the number down to 110 girls, who will then move on to the semifinals. After they learn a DCC routine, feel the unfiltered excitement of making the cut and the agony of crushed dreams as 55 girls are chosen for finals.
