I decided I had no right to be ripping on this series without having seen them first. So now that I have, what's the verdict? Honestly, they're not THAT bad. The actors are all perfectly capable (at least the six stars are), the choreography is very good, and the songs are catchy as balls. Still, the story is about as generic as it can get, beating it's message into your head as hard as it can, and everyone not in the main cast is average at best. Still, it's not nearly as bad as I thought it'd be.
