Get ready to be dazzled and inspired by the latest dance show sensation, The Dolls, that premiered on Sunday, June 23rd, exclusively on Brandon TV.
The Brandon Studios original series stars the legendary Dianna Williams and her electrifying dance team, the Dancing Dolls (known as 'DD4L' for short). The fresh new take on the dance team promises far more authenticity than its predecessor.
Prior to the premiere of The Dolls, Williams starred in a series on Lifetime TV titled Bring It. The show focused on the same elite dance brand, but the location in Jackson, Mississippi, where her brand was first launched. Since the show was taken off the air, fans have missed Williams and her team. But not only has Brandon TV relaunched Williams and the DD4L brand, they have lined up a series of spin-offs starring other OGs from the former Bring It series too. Recently, Tyrus Sellers was even spotted on set of the series, at a high school in Texas.
Within the first few episodes of The Dolls, the series introduces a fresh face— Jadaia Gorman; also known as Coach Carrot. Carrot is the assistant coach for the Baby and Mini Dancing Dolls, alongisde her partner in crime. She has already ruffled some feathers with fans on social media, after calling out the head coach of the Dancing Dolls for showing favoritism toward her daughter, who is also on the team.
But Carrot isn't holding back, she stands by her transparency on the show and off of it.
After a recent filming session, a touching moment highlighted the strong bond she has with her girls. A young dancer presented her with a heartfelt apology note and a special gift, following some enforced rules the coach has to make.
Carrot shared the moment on her Instagram story.
The note the baby Dancing Doll resented read:
“Dear Coach Carrot,
I’m sorry for talking during practice when I wasn’t supposed to. I hope I can make things up with this gift.
Written with love, Kiwi.”
The series premiere of The Dolls picks up right where the 3-part reunion special, Dianna, leaves off. She is balancing her life as a mother and a coach, returning from Jackson, Mississippi where she met with former Dancing Doll Parents (DDPs), just days before the Dancing Dolls have auditions. The senior producer, Joel Parent, confirmed last month the season would be 20 episodes in length.
And Coach Carrot is a strong supporting cast member from the very beginning.
Looking at this moment from an outsider, we all know kids can undoubtedly chatty, but moments like these reveal the deeper connections and life lessons being nurtured within the DD4L family. The show goes beyond showcasing dance skills; it emphasizes the development of character, teamwork, and personal growth. Coach Carrot's openness and the young dancers' willingness to own up to their mistakes, exemplify the supportive and nurturing atmosphere that Williams champions within her Dollhouse, and exactly why Carrot is in such a leadership position. Even though she may not agree with the current head coach of the Atlanta organization.
Be sure to tune in to Brandon TV on Sundays for more episodes of The Dolls and witness the magic of DD4L. Join the ever-growing fanbase, cheering on Williams, Carrot, and all the talented dancers at the Dollhouse Dance Factory.
