Dance Moms

It's that time again for the girls of Dance Moms get together - without their moms and Abby - to dish the all of the dirt from behind the scenes. They'll cover everything from their moms to their feelings about Abby's crazy behavior last season, and also discuss Maddie's new movie career. We'll also see a brand new dance that the girls choreographed themselves!

It's the ALDC's first week of the competition season and Abby starts it off with a bang - a big announcement that will change the future of the team. Maddie's star is glowing brightly as she shoots her first movie and her new substitute on the team is a slap in the face to Jill and Kendall. Meanwhile, Jeanette and her BDA team, the reigning National champs, are back.

The moms are shocked to learn that Abby is forming a new team, but they're even more surprised when news breaks that Abby could be facing jail time. When Mackenzie receives the brunt of Abby's rage, Melissa vows not to play nice anymore.

Abby's new mini team arrives at the ALDC L.A. and tensions are high. Distracted by new moms, new dancers and her continuing legal troubles, Abby is hanging on by a thread, and everyone knows it. Meanwhile, Ashlee and Brynn are caught in Jill's crosshairs as Kendall's position on the Junior Competition team is threatened.

It's a full house at the ALDC and the minis are set to compete with their first group dance. Maddie is back and books a prestigious photo shoot with two other ALDC girls. Meanwhile, Maddie and Brynn compete head to head with solo routines. With Maddie's busy schedule, Ashlee sees this as the opportunity for Brynn to steal the title of Abby's #1 dancer.

After resigning the previous week, Abby locks the team out of her LA studio. Debbie Allen extends an invitation to the ALDC to work with her, proving that everyone is replaceable including Abby. Special guest choreographer Nakul includes the minis in a difficult Bollywood routine.

Abby is back but her focus is only on the minis. With only four girls on the unofficial mini team, a new mini and her mother show up to audition and they rub Melissa the wrong way. With the original junior team only competing in one routine, the moms complain when "Maddie's replacement" Brynn is chosen to dance the lead role.

With the stress of Abby's legal woes looming overhead, she reaches her limit and kicks the girls out of her studio. The moms contact Debbie Allen, who graciously offers her studio so the girls can rehearse for their upcoming Arizona competition. Kira is finally back with the team and Ashlee is ready for a fight.

Maddie has returned from shooting her movie and is back on the team for good, but to everyone's surprise, Abby doesn't seem happy to see her #1 dancer. The moms question if Abby is jealous of Maddie's fame and Ashlee uses this to her advantage in hopes that Abby will spend more time grooming Brynn to be the next big star.

It's a week of duets for the ALDC junior elite team with Brynn and Maddie going up against Kalani and Kendall. But when Kalani's back injury starts to act up and Kira is not there to help, Melissa and the other moms have to step in and do what's right for her.

The ALDC travels to Northern California and Abby's routines are darker than ever. The moms decide to pull a prank but it backfires horribly. Meanwhile, Maddie, Brynn and Kendall compete with solos and Ashlee will do anything to give Brynn an advantage, even if that means becoming Abby's employee.

Maddie is nominated for a People's Choice Award and the media is abuzz with rumors that she is leaving the ALDC. The moms are furious when Abby invites an unexpected guest as her date to the People's Choice and the biggest moment of Maddie's professional career. The minis are back, along with a new mom whose daughter's attitude causes a dance catastrophe.

Abby brings in Todrick Hall to direct the girls in a big musical commercial inspired by The Wiz in an attempt to get new customers to sign up at the ALDC. Maddie and Brynn captain trio teams of their choosing that compete head to head. The pressure is on for Brynn as she will finally become an official member of the ALDC if her trio wins. Can she beat Maddie or will she be sent packing?

Abby has prepared several show stopping numbers this week - including an unusual David Bowie tribute - and the ALDC is heading to Las Vegas. Ashlee and Brynn are now official members of the team but the infighting hits its peak when Kendall stands up to Ashlee for the first time. The moms are concerned that the girls are becoming too involved in the drama.

Abby welcomes back ALDC Pittsburgh veteran, Sarah, to dance with the team. Tempers flare when her mother, Christy, calls Jess' loyalty into question. After Abby pulls Kendall and Maddie's duet, Kendall has an emotional meltdown and Melissa seriously questions whether to keep Maddie on the team at all.

Abby's whole world is shattered when Melissa shares shocking news that will change the face of the ALDC forever. But with the ALDC competing three trios and an epic group number inspired by the new blockbuster film, The Huntsman: Winter's War, there is little time to spend mending Abby's broken heart.

It's Hip Hop Week but not everyone is invited. Abby decides to give Brynn and JoJo hip hop solos but gives Mackenzie a safe acrobatic routine. With only two more weeks left on the team, Mackenzie fights for what she wants. Abby doesn't approve of Mackenzie's determination to dance hip hop and flees the studio when the girls need her the most.

Maddie and Brynn have solos this week and the moms are not happy when Abby assigns Brynn a dance inspired by an old Maddie routine. To add fuel to the fire, the mini team is back! The two teams rival for Abby's attention, causing their relationship to take a drastic turn for the worst.

It's one of the saddest weeks in ALDC history as Maddie and Mackenzie participate in their final competition with the team. The two sisters both have solos, but when Abby pits Mackenzie up against a new mini, Ari, it's clear that Abby is more concerned about her future than her past. The moms encourage Melissa to reason with Abby, since this is her last week.

Jai Rodriguez hosts a Dance Moms reunion, following Melissa, Maddie and Mackenzie's last performance with the team. The dramatic events of the latest season will be rehashed and the moms will get to speak their minds. We'll also hear from the mini moms on the future of the ALDC.

Jai Rodriguez hosts a very special episode of Dance Moms where the girls from the ALDC say goodbye to Maddie and Mackenzie. They'll play outrageous games and answer questions from die hard fans. Later, Todrick Hall makes a special guest appearance to perform with the girls. We will witness the girls' heartfelt goodbyes to the Zieglers and watch them dance together for the very last time.

For the first time ever, Maddie and Mackenzie sit down with Abby and give an exclusive take on their Dance Moms journey before they say their final farewell. We'll relive their triumphs and heartbreaks and finally get answers to the questions we're all dying to know, plus we'll hear the scoop on what's to come for the Ziegler sisters after Dance Moms.

To kick off season 6B of Dance Moms, Jai Rodriguez and the girls of the ALDC are back to give the latest on Abby and the team and debut some brand new dances. Some super fans get up close and personal with the girls, the newest member of the Mini Team is introduced. The Dads of Dance Moms finally make an appearance to spill their daughters' deepest secrets and show off their own moves.

The season begins with a newly motivated Abby Lee promising to no longer overlook her remaining dancers now that her star, Maddie, is gone. Abby assigns Brynn and Kendall head-to-head duets with boy partners and Brynn struggles with the pressure. When Jess calls out Abby's favoritism for Brynn, Ashlee hits her boiling point.
