Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for anyone who loves a strong character drama. If you loved Friday Night Lights, start here.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
1 season: a few weeks of evenings, episodes of about 41 minutes, about 15 hours in all.
What might put you off
  • Rated TV-PG. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
  • It was cancelled, so the story may not get a proper ending.

Pre-law student Marti Perkins' world is flipped upside down when she loses her scholarship, and realizes the only way she can stay in school is by reigniting her dormant teen gymnastic skills to win a place on Lancer University's legendary cheerleading team.
