Episodes
"The List"
Much like "The Pyramid" in the original Dance Moms, "the List" is used to show the moms and the dancers who both Angel and Victor feel did the best and who needs to improve. The list changes every week. While Abby Lee Miller graded her dancers based on the titles they had previously won at competitions and the moms' attitudes, Angel Armas states the grading system at Stars Dance Studio is strictly based on the dancers' overall attitudes and performances regardless of awards and placing. Like with Dance Moms, the grading system was suggested to the dance instructors by the show producers in order to create more drama on the show. Lucas Triana is the dancer who has been 1st on the list the most often.
