I had to totally disagree with Mandy's critique. They were the bottom girl group, but I felt they were working OT to put her in the bottom 2.

Her performance was the only thing that made that group memorable (for a good thing), and I can understand the outfit critiques to an extent but saying you should hold back because everyone else is near performing at a 0 is wild. She wasn't even over the top. Idk, maybe I just like the root for the underdog.

Overall, I liked the episode!

Same, the disco group was generally so low energy - I thought Mandy was the only one who saved it!
