#tns heath

my thoughts on the next step 9a

clude leaving is so bittersweet... i'm so sad we've lost such a sweet couple and great wlw representation but they left happy and stronger than ever!!!!!!!

the colour symbolism with kenzie's signature colour going from yellow from to blue is a subtle but effective character choice imo. the yellow in s8 felt more youthful joyful and vibrant for when she was new to being dance captain, whereas now kenzie's blue wardrobe in s9 shows that she's maturing and gaining wisdom as dance captain, but is also going through some tough times too. blue is also tns' signature colour so it also shows that she's an important part of the studio!!!

i love heath in this season... his energy, his attitude, his relationships, carter's acting, everything 💯

grace's reasoning for wanting revenge is so silly because she legit made herself an outcast and when kenzie tried to talk with her she just dipped

i'm still upset and bitter and frustrated with daisy leaving........ i just hate seeing great potential dropped like that. melody was such a good addition to the cast!! also where was her goodbye scene with izzy???????? she wasn't just close with heath; she was close to izzy too!!!!!!

my heart broke for pete multiple times and i'm glad that we had a storyline tackling grief and (briefly) men's mental health. i wish it had more of a focus and lasted for longer but it was still effective.

thalia and eldon are still together!!!!!!!! yesssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!

JACQUIE MENTION YESSSSSSSSSS I'VE WAITED FOR TIMES LIKE THIS

kenzie basically being both the dance captain and studio head by herself because what does nick even do retroactively makes riley look even worse at being studio head.......... yeah season 4's treatment of riley is still annoying me in the year 2024

idk if it's just me but does anyone else feel like it's not internationals???? the vibe feels much more like regionals or nationals. the scale doesn't quite feel grand enough

i wasn't sure that heath was "the heart of the team" but after watching all of 9a, not only is he the heart of the team he's also the team therapist and cheerleader... i love to see it

i love that anthony is still a ball of stress/anxiety and is also in a really important leader position as group choreographer. so often you see anxious people just depicted as introverts and not as leaders, so it's nice to see someone who's anxious but also a very capable leader

olive is the definition of a precious cinnamon roll. she's sounds like a disney princess every time she talks. she reminds me of amy in s4 too!! she really is just the 🥺 emoji

random point but i love that adele's signature colour being emerald green. it reminds me of ariel's tail in the little mermaid and now i'm thinking of an au where adele is ariel and anthony is prince eric

i know i'm probably in the minority here but i am totally on board with anthony x adele (should their ship name be anthele/adelthony/adelony??). anthony really had one conversation with her alone and just fell for her instantly. some fans probably think it's dumb and realistic but i think it's really sweet and they have potential for 9b

i do also lowkey ship adele x olive because they're so cute together (and they remind me of pamy a little.) when adele didn't want to work with ariana but was unable to resist olive's puppy dog eyes...... they're so cute!!!

kenzie and pete are really just the sweetest couple ever and they have such a natural, easy chemistry... they're definitely one of the best couples tns has had in years 😘👌

IS HEATH'S DAD DEAD???????????????

ethan showing character development by being much more of a team player, we love to see it!!! he's still competitive but he's ready to share his ambitions with others

kenzie holding hands with heath was such a sweet, underrated moment... i love seeing strong, supportive and affectionate platonic male/female relationships

ebby naming her pet snail snaiyoncé is iconic

izzy calling heath "heathcliff" and heath calling izzy "isadora"....... the best friendism of it all

eldon mentioning west's iconic bangers and mash solo!!!!!! yes, thank you!!!!!! west is one of the most iconic dancers this show has ever had!!!!!!!!!

kenzie is allergic to flowers, noted!

heath is penzie's no. 1 shipper

ariana putting jett front row centre in her trio........ i know what you are................

ethan's loyalty to izzy is so sweet

WHO IS GETTING CUT??????????????

grace is definitely turning on ariana in 9b... i have a feeling she's going to out her as a traitor and a troupe might kick her off the team for a few episodes

remi is totally going to break ebby's heart, isn't he???

i have a feeling that presley might return to talk to her sister and say something like "chill ariana i'm fine living life and there was no need for getting revenge"

is ethan getting a boyfriend in 9b??????

can't wait for chekhov's bo staff to make its grand return in 9b

also how many enemies to lovers / rivals to lovers style relationships is heath going to have???? ozzy, daisy, pascale....... heath is immune to not having some sort of conflict in his relationships

this is a long shot but i'm really hoping to see more previous cast members returning. yeah i know it's not necessary, but i still want to know what our old faves all doing with their lives

given season 9's marketing has been pretty terrible it really does make me doubt that there will be a season 10. i would like a last series to tie the whole show together and maybe have a few reunions so the show has a great send-off, but feels unlikely now that they really dropped the ball when promoting this series

bring on 9b!!!!!!!!!

this is really jumbled and i've probably missed out so many things but i'm very unorganised so there you go

IZZY and HEATH in THE NEXT STEP

[darlingdivasworld]

male and female friendships in tns>>>>

[joah-of-art]

please tell me I’m not the only one that thinks Heath gives off sm oversized-sweater energy?

[darcyslesbean]

i can't deal with this im rewatching tns s8 and HEATH AND DAISY IM OBSESSED AAAAH

like im on 8x21 and the part where daisy sees heath talking to lucien and grace is just ???????? THE EMOTIONS I LOVE ITTTTTT

i was team lesbian daisy and besties heath and daisy but now im team sapphic daisy bc im shipping her with heath way too much to hc her as a lesbian

[rarepxirs]

I’m actually so glad that the fandom collectively agrees that season 8B is terrible, cause I cannot stand watching through it and seeing the writers try to convince us that Heath likes girls

[wandacallsbucky-james]

tns when I catch you!!!! the withdrawals I'm having are something serious😭

[partiallypearl]

[louiisaa]

episode 18 and 19 of tns were insane like what do you mean TEAM FRANCE AND GRACE ARE WORKING TOGETHER?? and my poor baby pascal had to cut off HEATH THE SWEETEST LITTLE GUY EVER like i'm getting season 2 flashbacks but worse bc i didn't like hunter. and ETHAN AS ALTERNATE?? i get kenzie she didn't even try but ETHAN. nono he is way too good and if he doesn't get that french boyfriend and the paris dance thing i'm gonna cry.

[livebloggingkidshows]

Okay that did Not go in the direction I was expecting. Mostly because the picture the TNS instagram shared from Internationals has Heath but not Anthony. So I have no clue where this is going. I'm so confused. Also glad that picture didn't spoil this particular episode

he  relinquishes  his  phone  to  her  without  a  second  thought,  parts  from  it  like  it  was  never  his,  like  it’s  natural.  can’t  be  bothered  to  pay  much  attention  while  she’s  flicking  through  it  either,  finds  other  things  to  be  distracted  by.  for  all  he  knows  she  could  be  transferring  all  of  his  money  into  some  offshore  account,  he  wouldn’t  really  care  if  she  did  anyways,  figures  it  would  build  character.  he’s  tethered  to  her  by  the  cord  of  his  headphones  but  his  attention  is  on  closing  his  book  so  he  doesn’t  lose  his  page,  on  the  way  curls  bounce  as  she  listens  for  the  song,  on  the  people  moving  through  the  courtyard,  on  his  untied  shoelace.  “  public  ?  ”  an  eyebrow  raises.  nothing  about  heath  was  very  public  except  well,  his  constant  need  to  perform  intellectual  discontent  for  an  audience.  “  thanks  though,  your  style  is  sort  of  peculiar  too.  ”  what  should  he  say  to  meet  her  on  her  wavelength  ?  i  dig  it  ?  peculiar  is  enough  of  a  compliment  as  far  as  he’s  concerned.  “  i  hate  karaoke,  ”  nose  wrinkling.  truly,  there  was  perhaps  no  nightmare  more  extreme  for  him  than  being  forced  to  sit  through  karaoke  night  at  the  pub.  it’s  a  sort  of  impolitely  honest  thing  to  say  to  a  stranger  but  he’s  not  so  bothered  by  that.  “  an  accountant  with  hobbies  ?  god,  you  make  me  sound  so  tragic.  if  that  were  true  you’d  just  put  me  out  of  my  misery  wouldn’t  you  ?  ”  being  an  account  with  a  love  for  literature  would  probably  be  a  far  better  life  than  whatever  this  thing  he’s  got  going  is,  and  yet  he’s  dedicated  so  much  of  his  identity  to  pretenses  that  the  alternative  can  only  invoke  fear  in  his  heart.  “  but  yeah,  literature  you  got  me.  am  i  really  so  predictable  ?  ”  eyes  track  up  and  down,  from  the  funky  boots  to  the  tattoos  peeking  out  to  the  hair  pinned  up  with  pens.  he’s  looking  for  hints,  yet  he  can’t  place  anything.  “  and  what  about  you  then.  if  you  aren’t  a  musician.  ”
