Some pretty decent horses, I found it comical in the shot they were supposedly filming Marv, her horse suddenly changed to a sorrel while going around the barrel...This could be like watching a train wreck and not being able to look away... |

Location: North Dakota | Watched it. Threw up in my mouth a little. I didn't have high expectations, but this was just awful. They spent about 5 minutes on actual barrel racing and each run was so poorly edited and the slow mo made me dizzy. And I'm pretty sure when that Marv or whatever her name was ran, they had a quick clip that looked like a sorrel, not her bay in the middle of her run. And the drama. So petty. So lame. All in all, this show SUCKS. These girls may be good at barrels, but the way this show is presented, I would never know. |

That was me...I didn't mean any harm, just going off first impressions on the show. Anyone can claim to be a barrel racer, and even win money and buckles. To me though, there's a big difference between the barrel race winner at a 4-h show, an AQHA show, a local jackpot, a super show, and a rodeo. Even with rodeos the caliber of contestants are going to vary from region to region. I'm not saying any of those portrayed on the show are or aren't high or low caliber, but I certainly won't believe something just because I read it on starcasm.net, I choose to reserve judgement until I know a little more. Really though, I wasn't judging, just saying Barb and Marv appeared a little more been there done that than the others...No offense meant ladies, put the claws away... |

the starcasm article is true, that's why I said it was factual. No claws, just some of us actually know or know who these girls are and their horses. |

I don't know of any way you could make Dash run a 23. Unless he trotted. I have yet to watch the show. For some reason it's not on in Scio Oregon until later. LOL
Dash was an 18.3 in Scottsdale. Marv was an 18.1. Barb knocked. The Megan girl knocked. And the Jessica girl ran a 23 somehow. She slipped a little at the 2nd, but not enough to warrant. THAT time
And yes. I'll be saying Dash ran that time. Darcy was just along for the ride. The other girls can ride. Darcy? Not so much. She just has the money to buy the right horses. Barb & Marv put the work in on theirs. Idk enough about the other two. They both said they just bought their horses, so I'm guessing they didn't train them. But they're sure as heck doing more riding than Darcy is. She just knows how to switch hands. I can do that. So I'm not impressed. Take it how you will. I have respect for the other girls though.

I posted videos of Dash's previous owner running him but it was on a thread that got moved to the Island. |

Location: CA | I didnt think Darci did too bad for being the newbie; in fact I was impressed with how she hung in there and went for it... These other girlies have been running barrels probably their whole lives and like someone else just said she(D) started late in life. I didnt like all the fake crap and I dont care to watch it because it bores me, but I was kinda rooting for Darci on this one.

| I found it pretty commical... It is all a train wreck like Gypsy sisters and you cant look away! Lol! I wish they wouldn't of edited the runs so much. Marv looks like she can kick some butt! but the other gals ran 23's ?!?! even with tripping and hitting a barrel that clock time seemed a bit off.
As for Darcy... there are people out there in the real world just like her. heck we have a few in our area. She probably doesn't exercise the horse either and has a trainer for that and alls he probably does is hop on and runs. |

I decided to watch it once just to see if it was as bad as I expected. Honestly, it was worse. The scripting they did was so dorky. "yep, I'm a champion. I won this here buckle way back in 2012.". And all the we're gonna kick Darcy's butt on her $200,000 horse a jillion times. I'm pretty sure I know whose idea that storyline was. I admit I giggled at Darcy talking to her horse the way she did. I talk to mine too, but it's like "get up, move over, keep going, you sorry &$#%!!!". LOL Was it just me or was the video sped up to make the horses look faster? |

| The show is not going to last long. I watched it. I was not impressed and I love reality shows. Darcy wouldn't shut up throughout her run. I found that it was very boring but I did like Marv. I didn't like the riding skills of Barb when she was warming up her horse around that barrel. |

I'm pretty sure my horses learn that if I say a bad word during a run, they better run like their tail is on fire, cause mama is mad. Ha! |

| Hahaha well.... the starting of the show the one girl stated that she was 1st in the nation... I did expect her to go in and blow the doors off.. but she was a second off the winning time, Darcy couldnt ride the paint off a stick horse but im sure she could yell it off with the way she screamed going around the barrels. I think that Barbs horse was really nice. What i didnt like is how it was projected, you cant tell me that barrel racers are all going to stand there waiting for each other when they are running late? ride in on a limo to the rodeo and change in the backseat the first 6 min into the show, and a little trip on second barrel & being a 23 seconds.....I appreciate that there is a show like this, i just wish it was more accurate. |

The Resident Destroyer of Liberal Logic
Location: PNW | Did anybody notice the HORRIBLE acting/editing during the scene where Barb's grey horse gets stuck in the rope and Jessica is supposed to be "worried". You can see her look off to the side OBVIOUSLY for a cue, and then at one point she gives the phoniest "oh my gosh!" face.
I hate the way they edit the runs. Stop with the slow mo. Stop with the weird clips to the horses' feet.
Also, I choked on my eggnog when Marv said she was a top rider in the nation. Whuck? I'm not knocking her, I don't even have my card. But if you're going to put yourself on TELEVISION, you'd better have your facts straight. Especially if it is an outlandish claim like that, that any quick googling can disprove. Maybe it should have been.... "One of the top riders in the Northwest." Or "One of the top riders in the state." Or "one of the top riders in my circuit."

I didn't get to watch the entire show, but like with most movies I'm guessing they put the most "attention getting" scenes for previews. There's evident jealousy and drama between the girls, which is notorious when you have a bunch of women together! |

 I Don't Brag

| I used to yell like a wild man......My first horse would rate so much better if I would holler "Here". I went for months without being able to open my mouth and it was very frustrating. FINALLY, that "Here!" broke loose and evolved in to a loud growl. Horse worked much better. I finally realized that yelling for me was like in Judo before hitting a stack of bricks. It allowed ME to focus on just sitting down and leaving my poor horse alone, instead of constantly making minute corrections.
I am all for whatever works. Thankfully I don't growl anymore but do find myself making a running commentary....."Whoopies, my fault." or 'Somebody lost a shoe" or "That's going to leave a mark" kind of commentary. Some find it rather entertaining. I don't mean to do it, it just comes out. I DO have fun watching
Not sure if I can make myself watch this show. I DO find Call of the Wild Man strangely entertaining tho'.

Location: Oregon | Okay my opinion after seeing it was kind of dumb, kind of funny, kind of boring. Bring on the bikinis and lets get wild, I was ready for some action and instead it was just kind of ... mildly biatchy.
And I have seen Darcy run and never seen her talk to her horse like that, I think that was all edited in. Also never seen her show up in a limo and fur coat. It made all of them (even Barb and Marvel) look like crappy riders IMO with the weird editing and herky jerky sped up running thing. But all in all kind of amusing and I don't think the whole future of barrel racing is at risk from it.
And there is some realism to it, the rich biatch buying her way into the sport, the girls that have to make their own horses and thinking they are better than the ones that buy their horses, the newbies thinking they are going to make it big.

At least I have one other person in agreement with me! But my post about it being fun to watch & pretty darn accurate as far as what goes on behind the scenes got a whole mess of dislikes. Of course I also said people need to lighten up a bit & stop being so critical. It's a show. For entertainment! And it's fun to watch. |

Location: North Dakota | I flipped back and forth between the show and the NFR. My husband and I found it hilarious!!! I wanted to give it a shot but it was bad! BUT it was funny and my hubby seemed to find it really entertaining so we will be watching it again. After it was over and we were watching the NFR and it went to commercial he said "flip it back to the other show!" but I had to break it to him that it was over....hahaha!!! Most TV shows are stupid so why not watch one with barrel horses, trucks, and horse trailers in it? lol It was way too scripted, very faky, horrible editing, and I hate all the interviews with each of the girls because they all sound really dumb. Maybe those girls are really like that but to me it just seems too forced. Who waits around for their friends to go warm up when your friend is running late? Did they seriously all have to go together as a group? lol Also the editing on Marvs run that showed the legs of a sorrel horse turning the first??? WHY? I think the one girl whose horse stumbled must have blown the 3rd really bad or something because they didn't show that barrel and her time was much slower than that little stumble should have been because otherwise I thought her first looked decent and he came out of that stumble pretty well.
All in all lots of fake drama and a lot of cattiness and that Ty was annoying but we will be tuning in again. Why not? lol I'm not a Housewife watcher but I did really like Jersey Shore. lol |

Don't they mean 'hits the private jet to meet her 'barn guy' in the next town? Lol. That just tickled me to death. I know some of the top girls fly to rodeos while they're at another one, but I would say they haul themselves about 90% of the time. They only fly when they have to make it to another rodeo while another is going on.
Darcy is a trip. Flying all over. Always wearing a cowboy hat. Fake lashes. Big hair. Going on a 'date' with a guy young enough to be her own kid. And selling herself as the real deal with 'a big heart' that every one is just so mean to. Puh lease. She casted the show herself! No one is believing her for a second.
Still entertaining though.

I think Darcy pokes fun of herself pretty good. She doesn't dance around the fact that she has a ton of money, likes to flaunt it, and worries a ton about her looks. It is all right there and in your face. Her waiting on her fake lashes to dry before she got ready to run was pretty darn funny! |

Uh, I'm pretty dang sure everyone knows this.
Luckily I don't have a twitter account. FB drove me nuts, looking at the FB page of the negative commenters crowing about how they were "real rodeo people" many looked like they had never been off their 2.2 acres. They were too busy standing on the back of their grade paint "barrel horse". |

Location: North Dakota | I don't watch Jersey Shore or Housewives .... and I won't be watching Rodeo Girls anymore either.
The fakeness. I just can't stand it. I read through some of the replies, but not all of them, so I apologize if I repeat.
When Barb's grey horse "tangled himself" while she was bathing him, it was completely computer animated and not real.
Obviously, they only one who actually ran during the rodeo performance was Darcy. You can obviously see the stands are empty in the barrel turn shots behind all the other girls.
And the air horn? When has an air horn EVER signaled when the barrel racer was supposed to start their run?
And I'm sorry, but Darcy can't ride. At all. What little video shots they had of the barrel race, all she was doing was holding onto the saddle horn the entire ride.
And the girl that got a 23- something run "because her horse fell"? Well, number one, her horse tripped and did not fall. However, to get a 23- time the horse WOULD have had to fall to run that slow.
Most of the dialogue during show was forced and you could tell a lot of things were scripted. Especially at the end when Darcy just happened to be standing behind the girls while they were talking about her. It was obvious it was staged.
And those are just the things I can think of off the top of my head.
I will not be watching another episode because I can't stand it. You'd think A&E would pay attention a little bit closer .... like by saying they are running in the rodeo yet there is no one in the stands watching. Details, details, details.
IMO the show is embarrassing.

I will not be watching another episode because I can't stand it. You'd think A&E would pay attention a little bit closer .... like by saying they are running in the rodeo yet there is no one in the stands watching. Details, details, details.
IMO the show is embarrassing.
I agree with pretty much everything you said but I still found it funny enough to continue watching...lol. Just a silly guilty pleasure I guess.
As for the other girls not running in the perf I'm sure they didn't want to have to explain what slack was etc. So it makes it more exciting that they are all in the perf running against each other.
It's all for cheap entertainment. It isn't suppose to be true to life or a documentary. It is just another fictional TV show. |

Location: NC | If all you do is nit pick every aspect of it, you won't enjoy the stupid humor of it. It's like a movie. Do you nit pick every aspect of a horse movie? Or do you say 'well that's not realistic but it's just a movie so I'll enjoy it anyways'?
Non-horse people have no idea that there are slacks at rodeos. They have no idea what goes on at the trailer. They have no idea how many hours goes into just one 12-18 second run. Nor do they care to know! They pay to see the PERFORMANCE. To be ENTERTAINED.
Let it go. It's just a TV show. NOT a documentary. |

Location: PA | I really liked it! Alot of fun to watch and you guys never know their rodeo lifes may really be like that. I know a few people and groups that are just like how they acted. It was alot better than i expected and if you dont count it as a reality show then you're even better off, entertainment wise. I'll definately tune in next time just to see more arenas and such on the rodeo trail I have yet to experience.
ETA: If you look up Darcy Lapier barrel racing on youtube you'll find a lot of videos of her. I really like her bay horse, he has such a nice turning style!

OMG if I was around a pro like her iI would be completely tongue tied much less telling her to bring it LOL. I know its all for dram but still. I Do think Darcy is entertaining and the others too but don't buy into the romantic storyline at all. I wish it was more like an actual documentary. |

Well in the beginning of the show they said they were actually really good friends that go back a little ways. So all the back talk may just be some ribbing between friends |

They looked to be right out of high school to me. And trying their hand at making a living out of rodeo. The one girl said that her parents support her financially, so she's out there on their dime to try it out for awhile I guess.
Why the heck couldn't I have rich parents or a rich husband? I did this whole life thing all wrong....... |

I watched it a night or two ago while waiting for the NFR barrel racing to come on. This is tough to describe, but I found Rodeo Girls to be ---- probably the stupidest, most staged, most fake, worst acting of all time that I have ever witnessed. No reality about it - we all know it wasn't reality. The show did, however, get high marks on the most "insult to the discipline of barrel racing and women".

Yes they are supposed to be rookies just starting out. Hoping to get a check at the big show. *insert corny music here*
Like a storyline. Darcy is the rich biatch with the big checkbook who buys an expensive horse and shows up in the limo to try and beat Marvel and Barb who are old hands at the game. Megan and Jessica are two young hot girls looking to win a check at the big show and at the same time drawing the cowboys eye because they are young and hot. Not old has beens like Barb and Marvel. And expecially not Darcy, who is older than dirt. (but younger than me!!).

I don't watch Jersey Shore or Housewives .... and I won't be watching Rodeo Girls anymore either.
The fakeness. I just can't stand it. I read through some of the replies, but not all of them, so I apologize if I repeat.
When Barb's grey horse "tangled himself" while she was bathing him, it was completely computer animated and not real.
Obviously, they only one who actually ran during the rodeo performance was Darcy. You can obviously see the stands are empty in the barrel turn shots behind all the other girls.
And the air horn? When has an air horn EVER signaled when the barrel racer was supposed to start their run?
And I'm sorry, but Darcy can't ride. At all. What little video shots they had of the barrel race, all she was doing was holding onto the saddle horn the entire ride.
And the girl that got a 23- something run "because her horse fell"? Well, number one, her horse tripped and did not fall. However, to get a 23- time the horse WOULD have had to fall to run that slow.
Most of the dialogue during show was forced and you could tell a lot of things were scripted. Especially at the end when Darcy just happened to be standing behind the girls while they were talking about her. It was obvious it was staged.
And those are just the things I can think of off the top of my head.
I will not be watching another episode because I can't stand it. You'd think A&E would pay attention a little bit closer .... like by saying they are running in the rodeo yet there is no one in the stands watching. Details, details, details.
IMO the show is embarrassing.
I agree with most of what you said! Definitely a lot of it staged/scripted. Like are we really supposed to believe that with ALL of them sitting around the table (some facing Darcy's direction), that NOBODY saw her walk up right as they are talking about her? LOL. Yeah that was obviously fake.
To me I thought the gray horse getting tangled might have been real. I thought the reason they edited it in such a choppy fashion was because PETA would have an absolute field day if A&E showed the rope wrapped around the horse's leg, etc. I guess it could have been another staged thing but that was one thing I thought might have been real. |

I don't think r_beau was saying that she tangled the horse's leg on purpose, but rather that it didn't actually happen. I don't think they showed a good shot of the horse tangled up. But I agree she wouldn't hurt her horse on purpose! I was just saying I thought it really happened. |

I wish they would let Ty ad-lib, he would probably be better off. VERY scripted, but what the hell, compared to some of the other crap on TV, I was tickled to see barrel racers!
Wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be, and sure wasn't a documentary either. LOL |

I don't think a lot of people understand the term - reality tv - the horse did act like that, do you really think they can afford to computer animate a horse to throw a fit when they can barely leave California on their budget?

Every girl also had atleast one brand new looking heritage style tack set. Lol I guess that explains their recent blog post regarding the show.
I watched and it looked pretty scripted and ridiculous but oh well i doubt it will last very long. |

If I could ever get mounted on something that could take that kind of life, I would sooo do it. However I never saw real competitors drinking before a race. I remember seeing folks walking their horses at night to keep them from getting tied up because they were in the trailer so much, I saw barrel racers helping each other when one broke down on the road, I saw people building each other up, and I even saw some knock each other down. But all in all every one I met had a heart, they were competitive as hell, but they looked out for each other.
The way they were acting on that show was more like I remember High School Rodeo being. Actually it was just like that. Just my 2 cents worth.... carry on..... |

What was with the sped up runs? I wish they would talk more about the horses and such. Or the girls' real accomplishments. Instead they apparently used that time for cheesy lines that seemed very forced. I mean some of that acting was just god awful from the two younger ones. I've seen better acting at a high school play.
I was was hoping this would be more documentary style and less trash tv style. Not expecting that, but hoping. Oh well. |

I surprise they even got the footage, the camera man was probably shaking in his "boots"(probably not wearing boots ) being so close to a big scary out of control horse |

I've seen girls drink before running to take the edge off. Not a lot, but like 1 beer or a shot of something. I've seen more than a few folks drinking at the shows. Of course we're just 'those divisional riders'. So we may be a little more heathen like. Personally I don't drink. Not for any other reason than it doesn't taste good! Lol.
I see alot of people drinking beer at jackpots to. and the local shows.. I have even seen them with a beer in hand on horses..at states.  |

It sounds like I am judging, but I'm not. I just find it facinating. :)
BTW I had the money at one point to get my permit, I hit as many rodeos as i could. lol I had a 2d horse so I didn't have the horse for it all, but I wanted to see what it was like. I loved it. If I could ever get mounted on something that could take that kind of life, I would sooo do it. However I never saw real competitors drinking before a race. I remember seeing folks walking their horses at night to keep them from getting tied up because they were in the trailer so much, I saw barrel racers helping each other when one broke down on the road, I saw people building each other up, and I even saw some knock each other down. But all in all every one I met had a heart, they were competitive as hell, but they looked out for each other.

Some try to hide it in a coozie. Most just have it out there. I know a few guys make beer runs AT the shows! It's a social event on top of a barrel race. Especially big shows like state finals & the big NBHA shows. I don't know how people survive on 2 hours of sleep a night! Haha. But it's never a dull moment. And I don't care what they do as long as it doesn't get out of control or end up at my trailer. Most are respectful and keep it at their own trailers. |

My problem for tonight is that it is on the same time as big bang theory..... and I don't know how to record... oh the trauma!!!!
A&E offers most of their shows for free online. That is how I watch Duck Dynasty...I did watch Rodeo Girls today online (after duck dynasty lol. I swear I'm going to study for finals now! )
Well, it was ummm interesting. It wasn't as bad as "I" was expecting. Aside from the first 5min. they kept their cloths on and the cussing to minimum. I think I just enjoyed the horses and tack. I would even consider watching the next few episodes if they showed the girls run and not choppy clips of their runs. This is just my opinion, take it for what it's worth (nothing haha). |

Location: Oregon | Just watched it. Had to DVR it because it is on at midnight here. I will watch again but I think that they have gone for ratings pull, not a factual representation of what really happens. BUT it is TV. Would anyone really want to watch what it really takes to care and compete on a horse? I am not a pro, have never been a pro. BUT I have been around quite a few here in the NW. They were always nice/helpful as they could be. Take it for what it is, entertainment. I mean seriously, do you think all "reality" shows are actually real??? |

Location: Phoenix | I enjoyed the first episode! So it's a little scripted, and I REALLY wish they would have shown the whole barrel run. I think non-horsey people would have liked to see the entire objection/pattern. Otherwise....everything was portrayed pretty accurately and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I find myself rooting for Darcy, even though I initially didn't like her at first. I remember seeing her rig at a rodeo and the blintz I on her horse probably cost more than MY trailer and there was a goat with more bling than me....I was probably just jealous but I remember being like, "who the heck is this?!"
I sorta know Barb and Jessica....not on a personal level, but, like if they heard my name, they would know who I am, so I'm rooting for them. I feel like I should stick up for them. My dad rodeo'd with Brian West....I think it's funny that Darcy is supposed to be the main character but the show really revolves around Barb. |

AND I love the intro song. It's "Put the gun down" by ZZ Ward in case anyone is wondering!! She's got some great songs.

| I think its disrespectful to the REAL cowgirls that work their butts off. If they videoed that ppl would be bored. People who get up before the sun and work all day. I bet you Sherry Cervi and the other top cowgirls aren't sitting around in a bar stirring drama, slutting it up, and acting like air heads. It's sad in my opinion. |

Location: North Dakota | 2nd episode was so much better! The girls seemed to be more themselves and not so much forced and staged drama. I actually really enjoyed it and didn't want it to be over! The fights seemed more like real fights that I could actually see happening. I love each of the girls for different reasons. They then replayed the first episode afterwards and I caught a few of the scenes that I missed from switching back and forth between the NFR and it really didn't seem quite as bad as when I first watched it. Oh and the grey horse getting caught in the rope was not staged. That horse was tangled in his rope and Barb was obviously very upset over it. I could definitley see myself reacting the way she did afterwards knowing that you are on the road away from your husband and the reason you are on the road could have just been hurt because of a stupid mistake. She was very emotional over it. I didn't see that scene the first night.
I hope they keep getting better. I can't wait for next Thursday! |

I loved the second one more than the first. It's still cheesy. But I still love it! I can't wait until next week!!
Anyone notice that Marv didn't do the bikini race? I bet the ones who did got a nice bonus for it! lol. |

| I just watched the first episode .. DVR the second and will watch later. It was what I expected it to be .. I do have to say that it didn't present a full picture of reality, but as I said, I expected added drama. Mattress hopping at the rodeo … yep, ex-husband did that .. so that part is somewhat true! LOL
All with a grain of salt. |

I am kinda feeling sorry for Darcy.

So does the Jessica girl have a deal with JACO or does she just have SUPER expensive taste in EVERYTHING? I saw their tack, belt, a jacket.
Every girl also had atleast one brand new looking heritage style tack set. Lol I guess that explains their recent blog post regarding the show.
I watched and it looked pretty scripted and ridiculous but oh well i doubt it will last very long.
Just noticed in the 2nd episode that there is actually a Heritage Brand logo on the side of Darcy's trailer. Why in the world would she need a sponsor? Or do you think they took it as a marketing opportunity? |

On what planet does it take TWO DAYS to get to Red Bluff from ANYWHERE in Oregon. Yes, it is a long drive for sure, but two days?! Come on ladies....
I'm really mad at my old hauling partner, I'm going to give her a bad time for never taking me to a bed and breakfast on the way.
LOL I live in Elma, WA and my family and I used to go to the Red Bluff Gelding Sale every year. It only takes like 9 hours I think from where we are. We always just drove straight through, even on the years we bought horses from there and had to haul them back. |

So does the Jessica girl have a deal with JACO or does she just have SUPER expensive taste in EVERYTHING? I saw their tack, belt, a jacket.
Every girl also had atleast one brand new looking heritage style tack set. Lol I guess that explains their recent blog post regarding the show.
I watched and it looked pretty scripted and ridiculous but oh well i doubt it will last very long.
Just noticed in the 2nd episode that there is actually a Heritage Brand logo on the side of Darcy's trailer. Why in the world would she need a sponsor? Or do you think they took it as a marketing opportunity?
Maybe she's just a fan... or supporter |

And she slaps a decal on her trailer? It's the only one on there. Besides her own decals and the one for Rocky Top

It's possible because I'm pretty sure Rocky Top doesn't sponsor her. But she is really, really good friends with Viki (the owner) and they usually travel together. So I'm willing to bet the Rocky Top sticker is just a friendly support thing.
But who knows, Heritage very well could have given each of the girls a tack set or something. |

Location: NC | In the A&E meet the cast thing, it says that Darcy won more money than any other rookie in 2004. Wouldn't that have made her WPRA Rookie of the Year? Because I looked it up & she wasn't. So is that in amateur rodeo or what? Does anyone know? |

I think that is what he's saying, I've never understood it either. Because sometimes I try to explain the difference between NPRA and PRCA/WPRA and people are like "but how is NPRA an ammie association if it says professional in the name..."
And yes, she was rookie of the year for NPRA that year. Not WPRA. |

We have two associations with professional in the name. One is a pretty competitive association. The other is a joke. 25 members tops. |

You can have more than one professional association. They just aren't affiliated with one another. The WPRA/PRCA is not the only pro rodeo association it is just the largest and a national association while others are regional. |

Location: North Dakota | FAB - 2013-12-13 5:40 PM that horse getting caught in the rope was a bit fake because she reached right over and pulled the rope loose like it was loose on the knot..NOT real
The horse's leg was caught in the rope so when the horse pulled and shook it's head the blunt of the pull was on the horse's leg not on the pole where the rope was tied. Also some lead ropes do not pull as tight as others. I have colt training lead ropes that when a horse sets back hard they still are not impossible to get undone. I can't remember what they are made of or if it is just the way they are braided. |

Location: North Dakota | sodapop - 2013-12-13 6:29 PM So was Reno (I think the casino scene was there) on the way to the rodeo? You can see I'm unfamiliar with the area. Would she have really wasted most of her money gambling? I didn't understand the argument in the alleyway of the barn. Were these ladies put together or did they know each other well beforehand?
The argument in the alley of the barn was over Darcy thinking she could boss Barb's helper/friend around. I can't remember her name but Barb's friend hauls with her to help her out and in return Barb gives her lessons. Well anyways Darcy asked her to grab a bucket for her and that made Barb angry. She felt Darcy should be able to care for her own horses. |

He's a trick roper & maybe a tie down roper I think??? I think it said that on the meet the cast thing on A&E.
I just know he's a RODEO cowboy. |

So many questions because this show is so far from the reality of the rodeo world I know...unless you are talking about the hormonal teens at high school rodeos... |

Anthony is Jessica's boyfriend IRL, the rest was just part of the show. I'm sure IRL she's not going to date a 20 something cowboy. |

But Darcy is another story. I guess for not having done it long she's alright. But I think she cut a lot of corners. And she has no room to talk junk like she does, whether it's just for tv or not. Just my opinion.
I think it's hilarious to hear her talking smack threatening to kick those other girls hineys. |

| So if they refer to the two as "rookies", then what is Darcy classified as since she has less experience than they do and has she actually ever filled her permit?
From where I'm standing, the rookies have been around the rodeo world more than she has. So while they might be rookies (as in just filled their permits and are on their first year as a WPRA member), she is the bigger rookie if we look at experience running barrels. |

The first time I saw her was at the Vancouver rodeo and she showed up with her first barrel horse Tommy and won the rodeo. It's not a WPRA rodeo but it's a tough rodeo. Tommy was a really nice horse. |

Darcy has been running barrels around here for 9 years.
She's been running for THAT long?? I had no idea. She rides like she's scared or timid. |

Didn't she say somewhere she was the NPRA rookie of the year in 2004? So almost 10 years. Maybe her new horse is a little intimidating. I'd probably look scared on him too. Last run I made on my own horse scared me. LOL |

Location: ND | crapshooter - 2013-12-14 7:23 PM I'm sure she has filled her permit. You don't even have to do that at a rodeo anymore. The first time I saw her was at the Vancouver rodeo and she showed up with her first barrel horse Tommy and won the rodeo. It's not a WPRA rodeo but it's a tough rodeo. Tommy was a really nice horse.
good for her... |

We've been away from the NPRA rodeos for so long, I hardly even know anyone anymore, unless they were going back when we still were, LOL.I barely remember Tommy, as in just about don't. I know she had a sorrel DTF when I first saw her going, and since then has the buckskin mare MP Wooden Cowgirl from Tammy Fischer, Robin Baby, the black Lucy Schnabele ran for Letty, Dashing Medic, the one I saw in what little I watched of the 1st episode that she bought from Della Wright, he's a really nice horse, made our circuit finals with Della and won a go, Normie she got from Eilene Plunkett, and that's all I can think of off the top of my head. |

Dash can be a butthead at the gate, that might intimidate her. I was too young when Darcy first started NPRA to really remember her (but I do remember her running under Snodgrass) but to me, like someone else said, she runs like she's timid. She's actually not a bad rider to watch just ride, and it makes me wonder if she maybe had an accident? She's actually had Dash for about 2 or 3 years, he's not as new to her as the show makes it out to be.
I've seen her clock in the 1D at Rocky Top though...I know she can put together decent runs. Idk, in my opinion she's no different than a lot of the people on here. I would be willing to bet there are plenty of people on here who are not as good as they make themselves out to be. |

I know I'm not great. Only been riding\running since August. But I also don't go talking junk to people a whole lot more successful than I am. I'd be a whole lot further along if I could afford to buy a nice horse, get amazing lessons, leave my kids & haul off into the sunset. But I can't afford to do that.
I just was expecting more talent/skill from all the junk she talks & how she portrays herself. And having the resources she has too. Maybe I'm more critical. Idk. |

maybe she talks that way for the show.. noone knows in real life if she does..it could be for ratings.. has anyone been around her lately to actually be able to Judge her. |

There ya go, 17.2 on a standard on Dash Ta Da Moon. Maybe she's not the worlds greatest rider but the clock doesn't lie. How many here have run a 17.2 on a standard WPRA pattern?
Booyah Darcy. |

I noticed people bashing her for riding Dash one handed all the way so I pulled up some old videos of Della running him. The first one I watched was Della running a 17.1 on him at Strobels. She rode him one handed all the way. I'm thinking it's not that Darcy isn't aggressive, he's just the type of horse you ride that way. |

O Gee. She can sit in the back of a saddle and bounce around on a horse someone else trained with one hand on the reins and one of the horn the entire time. Boom.
Actually what made me the most angry about the show was an interview I heard Darcy give.
She for one talks about how great these strong, empowered, women who rodeo are, saying she wants the world to see that. Um, comments like "Rodeo is notorious for mattress hopping", "The best part of rodeo is the after party", and "Your just jealous *****es" doesn't make them look like strong empowered women.
BUT the WORST for me was when someone asked her "Are there young girls who come to the rodeos? Are you good role models for them?"
She had the nerve to say that she and the cast and the show was a good role model for kids......Oh except for the bikini part. Yeah none of the show is unless, sex, alcohol, and stabbing people in the back sets good examples now days.
VOMIT. |

Why does she even need the reins at all anyway? Very overrated. I personally just use voice commands.......... Take x number of steps, merge to the right, turn at the barrel, turn, turn, turn, go straight ........ in my navigation GPS voice. |

That's a great idea!
And as for just sitting there, IIRC Dash Ta Da Moon was a scary mofo, I would probably not even put a leg over him. |

Location: NC | While rewatching the second episode again today when it was on A&E, I saw that pretty much the entire thing is just for show. Darcy is making herself into a joke of sorts, and then of course the martyr more down the road I'm sure. All for the show.
You can see how terrible they all are as actors. Except maybe Anthony. He's pretty good. LOL. But the rest are terrible. And it's HILARIOUS. Barb is always trying hard not to crack up, even in the super "serious" apology scene. Sadie is a friggin trip & I love her. And I've done some risky stuff to make it to a show too, so I can relate to Marv being a "hot mess".
And I guess I would be out there competing on a one handed 1D/Rodeo horse if I had more money than God too. LOL. I just don't, so I have to learn to ride the hard & old fashioned way. And two handed. |

And what on the show would lead you to believe anything different than that? He hasn't hooked up with anyone, heck no one has. Not even a kiss. There's been casual drinking but nothing more than a few friends having some cocktails, nothing that most of us don't do. I was expecting some hooking up or mattress hopping by now based on the previews, but we are already 1/3 of the way through this thing and noones even smooched yet. |

Because I didn't really disagree.
However I do disagree that buying a trained horse, riding one handed and running a 17.2 on a standard is a shameful thing. :) |

Well it didn't used to be a judged event before the the internet anyway, now it's judged by a giant jury of peers apparently. :)

True. Nothing wrong with it. They make the trainers out there big money.
ACTUALLY. The show reminded me somewhat of a spoof. And in the barrel racing circles I thought it would be pretty comical. Unfortunately, it's on National television and they are claiming to be accurately representing the sport of barrel racing and rodeo.

And, maybe we would see more barrel racing, rodeo, western lifestyle shows if we supported them instead of picking them apart. This is show is no different than all of the housewives shows. They are set up, scripted and promote drama where there normally wouldn't be any. People tune in and love the housewives because they are ridiculous and catty. I would rather watch a ridiculous "housewives" show with horses than one without horses.

Location: Texas | I'm way late to this party and have only wasted one hour of my life on this drivel of a show. But to the poster who asked about the Heritage Brand logo, I know these girls solicited sponsors. I live in Stephenville and my husband knows most of the people in the show. The dirt I could tell....
Anyhow, I can't remember which one, but one of the girls came into the trailer dealership he works at several times trying to get them to sponsor a trailer (i.e. give her one). Hubby is in charge of that stuff and said he didn't want to touch this show with a 10 foot pole. As he put it, most of the people who will get sucked into the show and believe that is what rodeoing is like will not be buying a trailer. He didn't want their dealership and trailer manufacturer associated with the train wreck A&E would fabricate.
It makes more sense to me why Heritage Brand would be willing to sponsor one of them. I'm sure a lot of people watching the show may have horses. It's a lot different to shell out money for a tack set than a LQ trailer.

Don't like the way Miss Money Bags rides, what am I saying, she can't ride... I ask the family to go get him back, he is too good of a horse to be in this crazy mess. What I don't understand also, is the big up roar over the Phil Robertson interview but A&E will turn their heads to these women actions..... Lord, forgive them for they know not what they do. |

Hey, maybe Darcey need a couple of hauling buddies!! i will admit that my 19 year old son, who is TOTALLY bored w/barrel racing IS watching every episode of "Rodeo Girls", even though I had to force him to watch the first one. Yep, they have a formula that works. What is it they call it, "T & A" ?? Tattos & Attitude, yeah, right!

| I quit TV a long time ago. My girls asked if they could watch it. They are 7 and 9. I watched most of an episode an A and E's website to preview it. I didn't think it was appropriate for them, but I see no harm in it for anybody that wants to watch. The people on it are obviously acting, but to me it is an accurate representation of "some" people .---------Jealously, arrogance, and pride are all prominant in any activity you get involved with. |

All the ones i have encountered, I have formed long time friends with. I know its all a farce, I didnt get too offended by Jersey Shore, even tho im italian..however i have a few friends asked me if i had time to ride with all my tanning and partying im suppose to do. |

I agree they need more real barrel racing footage. As far as barbs truck, I am guessing she won it, but don't know for sure. However, I had an ex who put that crap all over his truck. The best part was they spelt his name wrong. I about died when he came home with it. Hence one of the reasons he is an EX! L ol |

That truck didn't come from winning the DCNFR, it is a new model and I think she won the DCNFR in 2004. I'm sure they just put the lettering on the truck for the show, I don't know anyone that keeps putting their championships on every new truck they buy. |

You people being critical of the show realize you sound as bad as they do on the show - right??
Wasn't my favorite episode last night . . . and Sadie lost a stirrup but I was surprised she came off too. In her defense, it was a borrowed horse and she did have the balls to do it on TV. Also, for those that keep dogging on Darcy's riding, you sound worse than her.
If you don't like the show, stay off the thread already. |

No.......it is a prime example of most all reality TV......Housewives of Atlanta.......New York......etc......Kardashians....Farm Kings......the Amish Mafia...........made for TV soap opera drama...

After watching bits & pieces and knowing some of the characters a bit in real life.....IT'S AWFULLY STUPID!! (but then I have that opinion of reality tv in general) |

And go rounding up WILD horses ???!!!! The pros that I know hold their own clinic's. Exactly....what the heck. What was with the GoPro action...all we saw was the horses neck and then they showed them running home..ugh!!
I was watching the rerun of the show because I wanted to see what was on Barb's truck that others were talking about on here, but I guess I came in to late to see her truck so never saw it I think. So what is on her truck? Is this a trophy truck? |

BUT, i will say that i was quite disappointed last night, when I thought they were going to the Cody Nite Rodeo...and it was a backyard jackpot in Cody. Probably a jackpot just for the show--JMO! |

From the article: "Some extras who volunteered for the show left the arena questioning reality TV.“This is not reality at all,” Vanek said."
WHAT???? That can't be true, I don't understand.

hehehe....When Sadie made the comment that she'd never live that "ride" down, my husband responded, "Not if she reads BHW." hahaha!
I need to watch the episode again. I'm not exactly sure how or why she came off. That portion should be in slow mode.
Seriously though I nearly fell off my horse the same way a couple months ago. I lost my outside stirrup coming around first and we were in a tight indoor and my mare is really really turny so all I was thinking about in my head was ride ride ride all the way to the wall and once she got to her spot she dropped in to turn and she has a move boy that always makes people comment on her 2nd barrel and how quick she is...well without that inside stirrup and my focus on being to get her by the barrel I ended up on her side and had to really really pull to get myself back in the saddle. I pulled her up so I could get back up and then figuring I completely blew it because I felt like I was hanging off her side like a monkey for an eternity we coasted home and we still clocked 3D...lol. I felt horrible for my horse. She gave me the dirtiest look and I knew just what she was thinking "I was going in there to win this darn thing and you ride me like a pile of crap!" lol |

Darcy is just the money that put this ridiculousness together. Maybe she'll find husband #5 while out on the rodeo road....She hasn't tried having a cowboy husband yet |

I'm sure they just put the lettering on the truck for the show, I don't know anyone that keeps putting their championships on every new truck they buy.
She is the 2009 DNCFR champ and yes that is a '09 model Dodge truck. |

Location: California | My husband, Jack Kaenel, watched the show today. He called me and was laughing so hard I couldn't understand him at first. He said "Who the hell put this show on T.V. Some 'rodeo girls' show that has nothing to do with rodeo and is so stupid. Big titted, bleach blondes that can't put a halter on a horse. And they ain't even good lookin. I can't believe someone put this crap on T.V. They are pathetic." So that is the review from Jack. I watched it one and one half times and can't do it anymore. Just too boring. But I had to share what Jack said.

No it's a silver 2009 model on the show. That pickup almost looks like a 2010-2012. |

Great question.
Her money?
Her boobs? Her Lips?
I mean, this person has put herself out there to be picked apart - granted - and clearly the "work" has been done a few times, but she's still a person. And I don't get all the "she can't ride" comments. There are a LOT of people that will never ride as well as the one doing the criticizing, but she's still out there, living it and having fun!
Now, having said all that, I did feel sorry for Jessica's boobies on this last espisode, looked painful. |

exactly.. pretty sad .. she put her self on tv but she isnt harming anyone. she can ride probrably better then half the ones critisizing her..
I know ALOT of barrel Racers that have fake boobs and wear low cut shirts and show them off..hell half of the FB photos have them on there.... shes not doing any differant.. so what if she has money.. at least she isnt roaming around like kardeshians.. shes barrel racing for gods sake.. and she cleans her stalls.I guess she should instead sit home and drink wine all day and whine.. No shes out there .. doing her thing enjoying life.. |

Location: Silex Missouri | I tried watching it and I couldn't. Tried twice. I don't like the rich one's attitude because she seems to flaunt her money that she didn't make/earn. I am glad for anyone that can buy a finished horse. but I can't stand someone who calles someone else a "has been" just because they aren't currently winning. It takes time to raise/train/season a horse. I am starting over again after loosing my good mare. That doesn't make someone a "has been". Regardless, I wish it had been more about girls and the work that they do to make the rodeos instead of stupid drama.

hahaha! I know! I thought they were going to burst out at any moment. I couldn't take my eyes off them! hahaha!
I think Darcy seems nice. In the show anyways she seems like she tries to give the girls fun opportunities and really puts herself out there just to be criticized constantly for it. Of course it is all blown out of proportion but I think the jealousy coming from Barb is very unbecoming. Barb is a great hand so why does she act so insecure when it comes to Darcy? Let Darcy have her fun and just cheer her on. She is a grown adult and if she wants to start up a relationship with some "wrangler" so be it. If she wants to flaunt her boobies at a barrel race...well...she paid some good money for them puppies so she better show them off! lol
Oh man what did Ty say this time?? "Oh just hanging out." or something like that....hahahaha!!
I thought Ty was completely immature in this episode. He has been in all the episodes but before it came off more like just having a good time and poking fun but this time it was just down right disrespectful and rude. Poor Darcy who invited those ungrateful people to come stay at this beautiful ranch for something different than the rodeo road. I bet she felt like an ass in front of that wrangler man (sorry I can't remember his name so that is what I am going to call him...haha!). |

I agree.....I don't care if she has money or not...whatever....but I am "offended" by her "crappy a$$" attitude (even if it is scripted)......

I agree that wasn't nice to say but Barb's attitude wasn't any better which is what led up to her saying that. I think she was just tired of Barb's sour attitude and she got defensive. We have all said things we didn't mean when put on the spot like that and we get defensive. If I was Darcy I would definitely get tired knowing that EVERYONE including my friends talk about me behind me back and say things about me not being able to win on a $200k horse, etc. I think up until that point she has been pretty civil and took their criticism very well. But to say that type of stuff in front of strangers is just plain rude on both ends! |

Agreed. It's part of the plot of "can she make a comeback". I guess she did because she made the Columbia River Circuit Finals. |

She's never bad mouthed anyone's riding.
And she was riding a borrowed horse. In her FIRST rodeo performance EVER. And on tv too. I'm sure she was really super nervous.
She got up, dusted herself off, & went about her business.
Why do people have to find reasons to bash EVERYONE they see? Geez. |

I was wondering the same thing!!! The show seems really dumb in my opinion...but I will probably watch every episode...so maybe I'm dumb too. I didn't know that when you are rodeoing hard you have that much time to go to vineyards and retreats!?!?!? |

Anthony and Jessica are still together as of now, in a serious relationship. I am almost positive anything negative in their relationship is staged for the show.

I agree it is all scripted but it is still going to be fun to watch how it all plays out. When my hubby saw that part in the preview where Anthony asks Megan what if he met her first....oh man hubby was like "Uh oh! Oh no he didn't!" lol It's fun to see how much he gets into the show. |

JagsLuck - 2014-01-03 3:54 AM Barb West got that truck winning the DNCFR.. lol Dang ya'll are super critical
That truck didn't come from winning the DCNFR, it is a new model and I think she won the DCNFR in 2004. I'm sure they just put the lettering on the truck for the show, I don't know anyone that keeps putting their championships on every new truck they buy.
Actually, she DID win the truck at the 2009 DNCFR... Look it up:) |

So is this whats on her truck, Barrel Racing Champion? I never got an answer on my question
Not sure if this has been replied to, but I noticed that it is sensored or blurred. I'm sure for legality reasons.
But there's a pic of the truck on her website with all her credentials.

Location: PA | What I love is that a lot of the stuff the people bashing them say, is exactly what the cast on Rodeo Girls say to each other's faces on screen. So the show pretty much depicts everyone's opinions of the cast yet no one seems to know because they have only watched 15 minutes of the show. I've watched every show and am one of the hooked ones... It's just fun to watch and I'm glad they get to have fun while rodeoing because I need to learn to lighten up when I'm at a barrel race I take it waayy too seriously (Lighten up a little, not quite as much as they do on the show). |

According to this article, they do http://www.chicagonow.com/hammervision/2013/12/rodeo-girls-on-ae-an...~~Today we have a guest post from David Wallach, one of the developers of Rodeo Girls on A&E. He gives a unique perspective into how a potential reality show can go from being a really good, honest idea to being, well, Rodeo Girls. I have never actually reviewed a show that I was a part of making before. It’s like reviewing your own kid, hard to do. Rodeo Girls on A&E is different. I was the person in charge of developing the show, which means that I went out to initially meet the cast of characters and shot the demo show that was pitched to sell the concept to the network. I feel far enough apart from the production of the show to be able to look at it and review it, with a little insider’s pepper. The idea for Rodeo Girls and the resulting Rodeo Girls are two completely different things, which happens, but this time it may have been for the worst. LOL....After reading the entire article, you have to admit that it is pretty bad when the "developer" of the show thinks it SUCKS!!!! Edited by NJJ 2014-01-04 10:46 AM

The last episode Ty said he has a ranch in TX with ?35 horses? he was training and all kinds of people that worked for him and he was just helping Marv because she was family (he is her cousin, you knew that, right?).
Neither scenario made much sense.

| Even though I know Rodeo Girls is incredibly stupid and unrealistic... I can't help but be addicted to it. something tells me barrel racing will see an influx of girls with daddy's money who just wanna rodeo cuz it's cool. Not sure if that's good or bad... But anything to help a sport gain popularity is somewhat good if you ask me! |

Location: Where you need a paddle... Oregon! | I just watched it for the first time yesterday. I got a giggle out of Marvel being angry at Ty for not helping her load her feed store supplies because he was chatting it up a pretty girl outside the Sno Cap in Sisters (where there's always a line outside the door for ice cream). I giggled because there isn't a feed store next to the Sno Cap.
But I have to admit, I have a secret love of stupid, reality TV so I enjoyed the show enough that I watched it again today. |

Nope, sure didn't see a feed store next to the Sno Cap when I went thru there twice last week. |

That's funny, I thought the same thing! No feed store even close! Lots of cone lickers though! |

I was jealous that our feed store doesn't have an ice cream shop attached!!
After the bikini episode, my 4yo cousin now wants to be a barrel racer because, and I quote, "I didn't know you get to barrel race in your BRA!!!" She is a trip LOL.
I know it is scripted and watch it just for entertainment and laughs. I knew one of the gals on Texas Women and now I know better than to judge someone for a "reality" show. Because if someone offered me a stupid amount of money to film a few episodes I know I'd take it. |

I'm sure 90 percent of what they show on DD is fake too. I have been watching it skeptically now. |

Flipping Vegas? Yeah, it has been on. Another reality show full of whackos, but I enjoy seeing the end product.

I really like her music.
this show is kind of boring to me now...but I'll still watch. The most I've seen of the barrel pattern is when Sadie fell off......wish they all fell off more often so I could see these horses work!!! |

Yes the horse is for real. Dashin Medic is his name. Really nice horse. If you google his name you will find video of him and his previous owner. She did very well with him. |

How come she never rides him? Only saw her run him once or twice on the show? |

Location: Oklahoma | Darcy has owned some "great ones" over the past 10 years or so. She purchased Dash Ta Da Moon back in 2003 and he was a BIG time, $150k++ kind of horse. Sharin Hall trained him and Ken Pruitt owned him during his futurity and derby years. He was freakishly fast! I loved watching Sharin run him, but he sure wasn't an amateurs type horse! I'm not sure if she still owns him or not. |

I like Darcy, but her character on the show seems very amateur, is she in real life? Has she won anything on those high dollar horses? |

| crapshooter - 2014-01-04 11:43 AM Yes I think that is going to be RG's replacement in that time slot. (the Nashville show)
Now that I know how fake everything is all reality tv is ruined for me. After the two day drive and the bed and breakfast on the way to Red Bluff it was all over.
Now I just yell at the TV: OH SURE JASE PUT A DEAD BEAVER IN CORIE'S SINK!!! OH SURE HE FILLED HER BATHTUB WITH CRAWDADS!! I DON'T THINK SO!!!

Location: Centerville, TN | I've been friends with the Pruitt Family for over thirty years. Live in the same area. I'm sure that Darcy has her people taking very good care of Dasher but I wish that she could ride so that people that haven't seen Dasher work know how good he is. Sharin can ride the hair off him. Della Wright also could bring out the best in him. There are great videos of this team.

Wow, I finally read this, this guy is a dick. What a ma-roon. Let's talk about the show that I helped put together and put it down as much as I can - is he trying to save face?
**The hard road would have been to actively go after the original cast that included a gay barrel racer who had to act straight because gays are not warmly welcomed in the rodeo. Or the mom who uses rodeo to deal with the stress of a son with cancer and the millionaire heiress to UPS who can drink, fight, and f*ck better than most of the guys in the circuit. That show will never be seen.**
Uh, what? Since when are gay guys not welcome in rodeo? Hell, they are practically running the show everywhere except the WPRA. And who the hell uses rodeo to deal with stress? It is stress and if you have a son with cancer most people I know - rodeo or not - would be helping said son, not running rodeos. I don't know who the UPS heiress is, does she exist? And if she does I'm sure she really enjoyed his description of her. He sounds like a real winner, no wonder the show could have been better, it's being run by this guy. |

You can go to A&E's website. They have free episodes of Rodeo
Girls. You can watch the most recent one the day after it airs on TV. That's how I watch both DD and Rodeo Girls. |

Exactly what I thought when I read that article!! He sure sounds like a non-stereotyping/judgemental winner. (sarcasm)
Also he made these comments after all the backlash over the promo so I am sure he wanted to separate himself from it as fast as he could so what better way then to write a dribble article like this?? |
