new TV show on Gymnastics hopefuls

I had been looking forward to a new TV show called Perfect 10. Original announcements included descriptions like this:

“Perfect 10” is set in the world of competitive gymnastics and follows a group of teen Olympic hopefuls.

Seems it will launch on ABC June 22nd. But be called “Make It or Break It”:

… Big-time gymnastics is the setting for Make It or Break It, an ABC Family drama (June 22, 9 p.m. ET/PT) that follows Olympic hopefuls at an elite Colorado training academy. …

I doubt it’s going to be very popular with the readers of this blog. Can you forsee all the inaccuracies?

“Roz” Doyle (actress Peri Gilpin) from the TV sitcom Frazier is the mother of one of the top gymnasts, played by actress Ayla Kell.

One report even said Peri Gilpin would be the Coach.

The interwebs are conflicting on all this.

Leave a comment if you know more about this TV show. Especially if you know at what gym it filmed. And what gymnasts acted as stunt doubles for the “stars”.

Click PLAY or watch the “teaser” promo on YouTube.

Looks disappointing already.
