Back to my roots!! It's been YEARS since one of these videos 🥲
Yay I’m so excited I love this content, thank you so much for putting in the time to do this!!
Welcome back! xx
Loll
yess i love binge watching ur tier list vids
Tns is fr the best tho 😅
I love Beth. Just that moment when she finally let James go... It actually makes me emotional. 😂
It's pure PRIDE
Beth is iconic she’s so funny, her singing audition scene is one of my faves from the show!
I feel bad for Beth I thought that they did her character dirty in season 3.
yeah even tho i thought she was annoying and really dumb, that ONE moment made me sad.😢
Ye W hunter
Alfie in Legends is a crime 💀💀💀
The man broke up the greatest relationship of the whole show, he is LEGENDARY haha and he did it with no regrets 😭👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 iconic, I love
@@mockingariana3 crazyy thoooo
@@mockingariana3but over ozzy😓
I am so real even though I don't like him he is a legend
He is so legendary he made the entire fandom hate him
Tbf west is my fav because he is so funny, gets in no unnecessary drama (except from maybe seeds?) And he is just such a good dancer
12:34 I’m so glad you talked about this possession thing. Even as a kid watching it I hated it so much, the way they act like Michelle is a prize you can just handover and not an actual real person who can choose for herself who she likes
The best missing characters are Margie and Chuck Anderson
Fr my fav characters ever 😂😂😂
Margie never existed😳
And Zoltan and Minnow
@@greyrain16 ahaaa yess
We love Margie for life!
I missed these
But low-key you did hunter dirty 😭 he’s not just all Michelle eldon your forgetting about the most iconic friend group in all of tns hunter James eldon west he was basically the missing puzzle and his relationship with Emilie
Him and Emily yes but I don't think James, Eldon and West needed him! Especially as in s4 Em never mentioned him (or in s7 with the admirer thing) and Bangers and Mashups essentially being like 'let's solidify this trio again'. For me he felt a pointless addition just to fuel Emily and Michelle's rivalry
@@mockingariana3 fair enough it could have been such a cool plot if hunter came in s7 because Emily in s7 was where it kind went downhill so that could of helped her character she was just kinda there and didn’t get a proper exit
stop this was so nostalgic for me, it took me straight back to lockdown days in the spring with the sirens, and watching these whilst being off school, and now I'm in uni, time has actually flown by omg 😭
i really appreciate your reasonings especially the deserved better section because characters like miss Angela who literally fell victim to terrible writing was so annoying for us fans, because we had zero update on her or other characters that were in similar positions which just showed a lack of continuity imo and just laziness from the writers. I would personally put hunter in okay or great, because him and Emily's relationship was problematic of course 😭, but i really wanted them to get back together after Amanda got exposed. but also he was part of like the bros and the boys national small group was so iconic too. but then again after he left in season 3, we didn't hear about him, but it would have been good to see him in the bangers & mash ups competition in season 4.
i think margie is immediately iconic for her glittery exit, which literally was a cultural reset let's be honest 🤭
oh and let's not forget uncle Arthur and aunt Cathy 😭😭
I'm here for Winnie to actually own the show in season 9, because again why was there no explanation for her exit after she was cut, and then she just randomly appeared during a troupes goodbye episode in 8A 😭, like that was just random, so yes a whole storyline for her too is needed.
alishea's comeback is giving what Winnie so desperately needs let's be reall, so I'm manifesting this 😭🤞🏼
I loved max because he’s a lot like me. Hes more closed off and finds enjoyment in his own company rather than the company of others. Characters like that aren’t shown much on shows like this that are all about bringing the drama. I also just think he was funny at times without trying too hard to be. I know this ranking isn’t based on dancing but overall even with his small role on the show, his dancing alone stood out so much. His routine with Richelle is one of the most memorable ones on the show.
Alfie in Legend is crazy
frrr
fr i hated him in season 4
He is
@@GemDorome two
He ruined jiley
That was the tier list I made!!!! So glad you used it! And when I made the tier list it automatically orders the photos alphabetically.
Aha! Makes sense! Thank you for creating it ❤
Omd! U did such a good job! We need ma girlie Zara on there tho! Xx
Great video! The season 5 newbies (Lola, Josh, Zara etc) deserved a second season their characters deserved so much more when other characters who were boring were on the team for multiple seasons
My favourite characters are Michelle, Daniel, Stephanie. Out of the new troupe I loved Lola and Josh and from the current troupe I really like Heath, Ebby, and Xander!
Forever mad at how they did Lola’s character dirty that season :(
@@carsforever4002 frfr she is so underrated!!
i think of all the s5 characters i would've liked to see lola in s6
Loves to see Lola and Zara in S6 not Josh reason is his character just winds me up, his reason for auditioning I like dancing in the breaks around the hockey rink that's the reason you have come to audition for a competitive troupe
OMG!!! I'm so happy!! I love hearing your opinions about these characters, When you post today it made my whole day. So happy to have you back. ❤❤ I’m glad we have a new ranking video!
The one that surprised me the most was Chloe! In my opinion she’s higher than that…and in the old video I think you said she was one of your favourites!
Chloe is good but I feel like they could've added way more to her character
So excited to see what you think about each character! I already know that some popular characters won't be in the top, but I'm curious to see who will be where!
Edit after watching: honestly, I agree with your justifications. Of course I don't feel the same about the characters, but the way you explained why you ranked them in this row, the reason you gave, where enough for me to agree. You judged the characters by their writing, by what they added to the show, by why you like them or not, and I think that the reasons were valid.
So why I wouldn't have done the same (which is normal because it's subjective), I can't find myself to disagree with your ranking.
So, sooo happy ur doing this! Watched ur GRWM vid and loved it sm, need more content from u girlie bc ur deffo top 3 fave ytbers (and I watch loadsss of yt lol)!! Xx
It’s giving lockdown vibes 💕
It's giving sorry for the sirens vibes!!
Oh my god I’m so happy!! I love hearing your opinions about these characters I’m glad we have a new ranking video!
You know what this is a pretty fair tier list. For your reasons Alfie is definitely legendary (though I hate to admit it lmao), but going off personality alone Alfie would go in Trash for me.
Hope you're doing well Alishea!
This is amazing! I’m so happy you did one again. Honestly, I’m a little biased towards Huntmily so I would put hunter in okay. This list is great though and I love your opinions. Thanks for bringing this back and I really hope you’ll continue these! 🤍🤍
Presley should be on A-Troupe! Hopfully she's comes back for season 9 if not, excited to see her sister in the next season !
I love Emily and no one can take that from me cuz yes she was crazy in season one but after that she was bearable and sweet and she was a good sister and a good person overall I just love her character they ate with That.
Omg Alishea_ Great ranking video idea tbf. I'm feeling so stoked and glad that you're already bringing back the old day videos. So proud of you. Even stoked. 😁😁👏
I’m so happy you’re posting more often! You’re one of my favourite TH-camrs! I literally watch your videos all the time!
That was a welldone ranking of 68 rolecharacters in about a half hour.
Makes me feel old, dont recognize half of the characterw😂😅
I think the only one I disagree with is Chloe… I think she should be in great because she was one of the only characters who got a real professional job that was her dream ( the first one ), her plot in season 1 really showed the audience that it’s always best to be kind and help eachother out. her exit in season 3 I think really touched everyone… probably the most sad exit I’ve seen. When she comes back for guest appearances it really shows her character development and maturity she gained. I also disagree that Riley is below west… Riley had heaps of plots herself and west dosent have one that sticks out for me besides him throwing up before internationals…
If west wasn’t in the show, it wouldn’t change anything besides his friendship with James and Eldon… if Riley wasn’t in the show “ this changes everything” ( pun intended) because Jiley wouldn’t exist… the fire piper wouldn’t exist… therefore the whole drama between Riley James and Alfie wouldn’t exist
But I love this vid and list! ❤
Amanda had really good character development
Alishea, your hair looks AMAZING!
That hairstyle really suits you!
I don't think you quite understand The Next Step if you put Michelle as A legend and then proceed to think that MS KATE was WHAT A SHAME
I love how you criticise your own self as a character
She really said Alfie was more legendary then Riley
Hi Alishea, Video idea, rank the season 8B A-troupers based on dance ability lots of love. so glad u are bringing back the old day vids🥰
I would definitely put you in great because you did what you did and you were iconic in the off season, with the way you delivered your lines, and the whole fandom agrees you were iconic, you definitely fuelled the main plot of 8A. But I would say I would've loved if she figured some things out for herself instead having Heath constantly mole for her or she could be at the studio and fish to Maria that Nationals is a main focus for the studio that could be how she got the idea of forming Ultra Elite. I think she could've figured some things out for herself, that'swhat stopping her from being in legends.
❤❤
Literally justice for West 😭
WHERE IS WEST BRO IS MOST ICONIC CHARACTER AND HES NOT THERE (btw loved the vid they must have just forgotten him )
This is the earliest I've ever been on a video!!
Most of your opinions I agree with and the ones I didn't you gave reasonable explanations. Keep up the good work ❤.
putting hunter in meh is crazy he’s defo a legend
frrr and remove alfie from legend
Aha my girl, it is so good to see you post again. And I am still here, watching your content since day 1, haha, love your work, keep it up!
Literally since day 1!! Appreciate you so much
Great video girl!! Am I tripping or was west not on the list tho😭
s9 grace is crazy revenge always and giselle is iconic for the laugh
I just realized that all of Amy’s friends future boyfriends Amy dated before them
This is the comeback I was waiting for in 2024
Love this video 💗
A suggestion- maybe you can do a video placing characters in lines (front, middle and back row) based on their dance ability seasons 1-8 (all the A Troupes). I hope you’ll do it sometime 🫶🫶
The series started a few hours before Michelle auditioned for A-Troupe and was in every season
I love how objective this was
Finally 😂 we are ready
24:38 no totally agree they did Riley so dirty in season 4 fr
HUNTER IS IN MEH!!!??? N FINN N HENRY OKAYY!!??? I'M OUTTA HERE
JUST REALISED THAT MOST IF NOT ALL CHARACTER OF COLOUR IN TNS WHERE EITHER BACKGROUND OR HAD STORYLINES WHICH WERE FUNNY OR JUST "DIFFERENT/STRANGE" PERSONALITY TYPES COULD YOU COVER THIS IN A VIDEO IF POSSIBLE
TOO REAL
@@jimensaa I mean not really considering the show itself has kinda gotten really silly these last 2-3 seasons which is where a lot more reprisentation is but for the entire show
we had characters like Henry West Thalia and Mckenzie in the later seasons which had one of the few interesting story lines.
I know lost and found was forever ago but I'd love to watch you rank the songs in lost and found
love watching your vidss ❤
one my all time fav youtubers!!
missed these videoss
you should do a video of iconic tns quotes from each season and can you also do a video about if you think season 9 will be the final ever season of tns cos i think it is cos if they win or loose internationals it just makes sense and i dont want it to drag out and tns 8b was a flop in my opinion
So happy to see this type of video again & for your TH-cam return!
(PS. I love the thumbnail, it looks really good!!)
Chad was forgotten
Heather is so forgettable this next step nerd that has watched all episodes at least 3 times forgot her lol
NOT THE OZZY SLANDER!!
I remember your previous video when you were just ranking the earlier seasons. Now it’s the whole cast!!! 😮❤😊
Poor Amy
Ok, we all hate Kate because she sucks but Daniel did audition against Eldon and he lose. He ask for a rematch she asked him what would happen if Eldon win again and he said that he would abandon the studio. That's the only thing that wasn't her fault
Where would you rank Zara if she was on this list in your opinion. I prefer Jones over Elliot since Jones was more nice to Richelle than Elliot. Season 8 was the first time Ozzy didn't get involved with a Dance Battle every 30 seconds he gets an argument with someone to solve the problem, Ozzy was only in the Dance Battle for Season 8 against Izzy for a spot on the National Teams after The Challenge was changed in Episode 4. How would you rate Cassidy? I enjoy Cassidy as a character, I would put her as great since she's different from Maria like Cassidy didn't sabotage Richelle, while Maria sabotage Richelle to bring The Next Step down. How would you rate Moxie and Shad? Love your TNS Character Ranking Video.
The nostalgia is real
RIP Zara
She didn’t die Wdym
I just meant that the character was not featured in this video
@@Harriet_C💀💀💀
@@mosps0 She was trash anyway
I love Jett she is my favourite idk why but she’s my favourite
I actually really did not like Jackie at all in season 5 but loved her friendship/rivalry with Richelle in season 6
The entire video, I was like, trying to guess what you were going to say and then either agreeing or yelling cuz I didn't agree LMAOOOO 🤣🤣🤣 The fact that you gave Alfie legend status and not Riley, OMG DEAD 😂😂😂 And Piper and Amy and even Henry...my heart bleeds. I know sometimes they didn't have great storylines, but Gen 2 would not be Gen 2 without Piper and Amy and Henry...AND MAX. Max is actually hilarious, I love how funny he is. I actually thought they didn't write Jacquie as well as they could have, cuz she was written in as Noah's love interest and that was that. The same with Alfie and Beth. They were all just there for drama and the second it was over or the "main" character was gone/moved on, it was like, poof! I dunno. 😂😂😂
Personally I wouldn't call Daniel "legend" he's definitely known in the show, but he bothered me with his constant victim mentality. Everything that doesn't go his way he brings down to bring some sort of victim. His ankle injury too... If he didn't hide it and took like a week's rest it would've healed up, the only reason it got so bad is because he was so focused on himself. The closer they got to regionals and the worse his ankle got the more it screwed over the team. He cared more about himself than the good of the team, he didn't even look for the good for himself either he almost caused himself an injury that could prevent him from continuing his dance career. He caused problems for his team and himself when a week or twos rest probably would've had him healed before the injury got worse.
His ego really got in the way too in I think season 2 when they were choosing the soloists, duets, etc for nationals. He believed so bad that he was better when the simple thing is for the solo, Eldon was one of the best dancers in the studio at the time. Daniel only cared that he wanted these parts when the people who actually got the solo, duet, small group wanted it as well and they worked hard for it too. He only cared about himself and his ego whereas others are also focused on the good of the team (like Giselle and Thalia with the James/Riley duet situation knowing it was James and Riley who could win with THEIR duet). His ego gets in the way and his constant victim mentality in the first seasons annoyed me so bad.
I feel like if you marked Riley down for S4, West could be marked down for S2 and 3. Did he even get his own plot? Enjoyed the video!
Love these vids Alishea! ❤
I've watched ALL your Ranking Videos and they're AMAZING!!!
Please do more!
STEPHANIE?? OKAY???? legend babe.
I would give Piper her own category all to herself 100 meters below the trash section. Least favourite character, wish she never existed.
😭🤣 I adore piper
Great video, loved watching it! So great to have you back lovely ❤❤
alfie in legends is INSANE
grace is about to change
Good ranking... And now we know how u feel about Zara😭
in my opinion,In regionals season 4 cassie shouldnt of been in the dance,amanda should since cassie was the alternate
I’ve never seen season 7 or 8 but I’m intrigued
RIP Zara 🪦
Whos zara
piper’s way too high lmaoo idk why everyone loves her💀
She did mention early in the video she would be ranking based on relevance and according to the christmas special piper had a huge impact on tns 😊
Alfie on legends but riley on great is crazy 😭 the only reason why alfie character is even noticeable is because of the riley plot line and it’s not even based on him but based on who riley loves more which is why i dont even feel like he is great because he’s so dependent on that story line other than riley he doesn’t have much to offer for himself as a character the only thing we know i guess is that he’s a prince or whatever😭
You should re rank the seasons since you haven’t really ranked season 7 or 8
okey, i think that Max and Henry should've been a rank higher than what you placed them but overall i like your comments and rankings:)
When I saw this I was so happy! I missed these videos!! 🎉
Would love it if you gave each tns character a Taylor Swift album/song! Love your videos by the way and I’m so happy to see that your active again 😊
For me I watched season 6 first cuz it was the only season on Netflix so ozzy and Kingston and Jackie and the rest of a troop were like og’s to me so when I restarted I didn’t really feel like the a troop was a s special as season 6 a troop
Hiii, I just wanna say I agree with a lot of things however they forgot West and he wasn't forgettable i would have put him in legend. Btw I haven't watched all seasons just bc I was too attach to season 1 2 3
giiirl not you putting alfie and richelle in legends but not riley lol.. loved the video though! (for me richelle had 0 character development and was just annoying) and i think if you compare riley to the others in the same category, like giselle who's also an og, i don't think they're even comparable tbh.
and for alfie i feel like his only purpose was to mess with jiley and that's it
and west, who you put in legends, had 0 story lines and didn't really bring that much to the story plot wise
damn not my inner riley stan jumping out
It isn't who I like, it's how iconic their characters are (I don't like richelle haha)
@@mockingariana3 yeah but to be fair i think riley is pretty iconic, if not one of the most iconic (;
This is such a nostalgia trip
i wish there was a good category so people like amy could be in it
Ozzy is legend
OMGGG you're treating us this yearrrr
jones was also on season 7 on one of the competitive teams for regionals
Unpopular opinion : the characters started going downhill in S6. S8 characters weren’t really that good compared to S1.
Omg yes I love your vids!!!
Was lily on the tier list? Lily is my fave character from the whole show and i would’ve liked to see where alesha would’ve put her
Same she's on of my favs
U r not okay.Ur on great bc ur just a different version of Ella and the biggest part of ep 1-13
Alfie in legend is ILLEGAL!!!
I saw this got excited
Hot take: *Daniel is a better dancer than Eldon*
carry on with the tier lists
Alfie in legends?!? Uh-uh! No!. Eldon was the first person in legends I agreed with, Daniel yes is remembered but is not really remembered as a legend so I’d put him in great or ok. Riley deserves to be a legend
