Douglas Family Gold S1E2: Graduation Day

THIS WEEK'S EPISODE This week on Douglas Family Gold (season one, episode one) Jessica, Spencer and Spanny recap the episode and discuss:  Our first impressions and where they delivered on our hopes and some fears.  The Leotard shoot in which we fangirl hard over two leos and Spencer is like, "leos?" The real, unguarded Gabby Douglas or is it Brie or is it Gabrielle or is it Gabby and The Douglai?  Training footage: authentic without makeup and the great and foreboding Amanar.  P&G Championships: the realness of holding back tears,  not wanting to talk to parents, and  Christian Gallardo sighting!    Gymnastics Fact Checking: She was already on the national team, this don'ts matter at all for Rio and other white lies.   RELATED LINKS These are the leos we are fingerling hard over in this episode.
