Season 2 Review:
Season 2 of the documentary series “America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders,” on Netflix, is a bit less rah-rah than Season 1 — still full of tears, high kicks and sisterhood but also more attuned to the pain of it all, the sorrow and struggle of cobbling together one’s self-worth.

Season 1 Review:
Stripped of its branding obligations, Sweethearts is a compelling portrait of talented young people devoting themselves wholly to their craft. I may not enjoy the jingoistic aggression of the sport surrounding them, nor the hetero gaze glaring down so hard upon these dancers. But one does grow to love, or at least empathize deeply with, the women trying to assert themselves amidst that storm of money and manliness and manners.

Season 1 Review:
I still found myself caring about a number of the cheerleaders and even investing in things like the precarious “Thunderstruck” jump-splits. But when the seventh episode concluded with several participants symbolically removing their thick layers of makeup and eyelashes with the camera as a mirror, I was very aware that the series hadn’t, in fact, actually taken us beneath any surfaces at all.
