Christi & Kelly Rewatch The Creepiest Dance Moms Group Dance | Back To The Barre REWIND

Welcome back to our REWIND series! Christi and Kelly are going back through the archive, re-editing, and re-uploading our old episodes — in order, from the very beginning of Dance Moms. This week, they’re revisiting season 1, episode 6 (“Dying to Dance”), where the ALDC takes on one of its creepiest and most memorable early group dances: “Where Have All The Children Gone?” The routine was dark from the start: missing children, milk carton imagery, white costumes, a swing set, and choreography that left even the girls trying to figure out exactly what message they were supposed to be sending. Christi and Kelly look back on why the dance felt so heavy, how the moms reacted to the subject matter, and why the number still stands out as one of the most unforgettable group routines from the early seasons of Dance Moms. They also get into everything else happening around the episode: Christi’s 40th birthday Botox trip, the infamous birthday party gifts, Broadway Baby’s cameo, Christi getting emotional news about her grandmother, and Kelly’s blowup with Cathy after Brooke’s costume situation spirals right before she goes on stage. Episode 6 has a little bit of everything — creepy choreography, Cathy chaos, Botox, lobster, sickled feet, and one group dance the girls somehow pulled off beautifully. We originally aired this episode back in 2022, but it's been re-edited specifically for YouTube! Grab your tickets to our LIVE TOUR here: x1entertainment.com/bttb See you in 2026!!

The Moms Go Behind Abby’s Back… And She ABSOLUTELY LOSES IT

Christi and Kelly recap Dance Moms season 5, episode 25 — “Abby vs. Kira,” where the moms have FINALLY had it waiting for Abby to give their girls real training. The ALDC is in Los Angeles, the studio still is not finished, the girls are not getting consistent classes... and yet Abby keeps blaming them for losing. So the moms decide to do something about it: they bring in Sondra, an outside teacher and choreographer, to lend an extra hand. But this is Dance Moms, so of course it ESCALATES in a hurry. Abby acts like the moms have betrayed her, shuts down the whole thing, and goes into full meltdown mode. Then the fight gets even more personal when Abby rejects Kalani, and Kira, at last, snaps at her. Bring on the fireworks!

How Reality TV Reunions Are COMPLETELY RIGGED | Back To The Barre Reality Exposed

Christi and Kelly are back with another BTTB Reality Exposed, breaking down the Real Housewives of Rhode Island reunion and why these “sit-down and talk it out” specials are NEVER as they appear. From where people sit on the couch to which cast members suddenly come in ready to fight, Christi and Kelly explain how producers set the stage for reunion chaos before anyone even says a word. The RHORI reunion brings them right back to their own Dance Moms experience, where seating mattered, cameras kept rolling, and every reaction could be turned into a storyline. In this reunion episode, they get into Rulla coming in guns blazing, the cast questioning why she was seated so close to Andy, Liz apologizing after public backlash, Rosie and Kelsey’s feud, and the cheating video drama STILL hanging over the show. Plus, Christi breaks down why Love Island producers might be some of the most diabolical in all of reality TV right now.

The Moms Are Forced To Dance… And It’s A TOTAL DISASTER | Back To The Barre REWIND

Welcome back to our REWIND series! Christi and Kelly are going back through the archive, re-editing, and re-uploading our old episodes — in order, from the very beginning of Dance Moms. This week, they’re revisiting season 1, episode 5 (“When Stars Collide”), where the girls are getting ready for the ALDC showcase, a Broadway agent is coming to watch… and somehow, the moms end up being forced to perform too. Christi and Kelly look back on the absolute nightmare of learning a dance from Cathy, wearing those costumes on national television, and realizing they were about to be humiliated in front of their kids, the audience, and every person who would ever watch the episode later. Plus, the two revisit the fallout from Christi’s fight with Abby and Melissa from the previous episode. There are some apologies, but not before Abby tries to get Christi to sign an outrageous contract. Also covered in the episode is Mackenzie refusing to sing, Chloe getting called out over a hair tie on her birthday, and the early signs that Dance Moms was becoming much bigger than anyone originally thought! We originally aired this episode back in 2022, but it's been re-edited specifically for YouTube! Grab your tickets to our LIVE TOUR here: x1entertainment.com/bttb See you in 2026!!

The ALDC vs. MDP Rivalry Gets PERSONAL | Back To The Barre

Christi and Kelly recap Dance Moms season 5, episode 24 — “West Coast Strikes Back,” where the ALDC’s rivalry with MDP starts feeling a lot less like friendly competition and a lot more like a real threat. This week, Abby is back in Los Angeles, MDP is at the same competition, and Erin Babbs knows exactly how to get under her skin. Between the “monster” routine, the American Girl doll made to look like Abby, and the backstage tension, Christi and Kelly watch as the West Coast rivalry turns into one of the few matchups that actually seems to rattle Abby. But the biggest drama is still happening inside the ALDC. After Mackenzie beats Maddie, Abby gives her the lead in the group dance — only to take it away and hand it right back to Maddie. Christi and Kelly break down how predictable the switch felt, why the dance suddenly looked like a Maddie solo with backup dancers, and why the moms were so frustrated that Melissa did not fight harder for Mackenzie. They also react to JoJo dancing a tribute solo for her grandmother, Kendall competing “Just an Illusion,” Jill’s truly terrible pep talk, Jess’s giant bow hat, Abby’s carpet-like outfit, and the now-iconic “my mom’s dead” moment.
