Trivia: The Painting was actually hanging so at the end when you two rested on it, it would possibly MOVE back and swing....so there were two people behind the painting who would have their hands up to support your backs so that you didnt tip backwards. ;-ppppp

I think the duet Brennan was talking about was the initial Nationals duet from James and Riley called "Heartbreaker", where Riley puts her heart under his shirt to simulate James' heart beating at the end. The scene it happens isn't in an extended dance for this duet, but it was in season 2 when James and Riley were rehearsing in front of Kate after breaking up

my favorite duet between you and trevor will always be the internationals duet

The content we didn’t ask for but the content we NEEDED😍❤

when i was a kid i was literally obsessed with this duet cause it was my favourite jiley duet,thanks for bringing it to the channel❤

2:43 nationals are right around the corner always gets me

I would genuinely cry if Jiley having a child was made canon

When brennan was talking about the pull off clothes, I think he was thinking about Eldon's nationals solo where he does that.

I can see Riley come back as studio head to actually be a "good" studio head. Since in season 4 Riley was 18 and had no experience with handling a business. But in season 9 she has finished business school and maybe has taken leadership courses and is ready to bring the next step back to its former glory. So she will go from the person "bringing the next step glory down" to take it to the top!!!!!

i was so curious as to how the audience didn't get spoiled watching it live! also it was so interesting that you filmed it so many times to get all the angles. these are the things i was wondering about when i watched this as a kid 😂

The only question I have is did you ever get to choreograph your own solos or dances on the show?

9:06 Is he talking abt season 2 when Riley kept pulling James’ short so aggressively 😭😭

I’m so stoked for the podcast!! Q: I’d love to know if Brennan ever felt fomo for not being able to participate on any full season!

Simply the best duet of all TNS ✨️✨️✨️

man i cannot wait for this podcast, you and brennan are absolutely iconic together

wait wait wait... A PODCAST?? i didnt know i needed that but my god i do! cant wait to listen!

Woah! A Riley Reacts with a special guest?! And it’s BRENNAN?! Fantastic! 😆🙌🏻 Also THERE’S A PODCAST?!!! 🤯

I was one of the audience members when you guys danced this duet. My 12 year old self was over the moon!!

thankyou Britt for answering my question!! I’d love to see Riley’s child at the next step too😭❤️

9:07 she pulls quite aggressively at his vest top in heartbreaker if you're thinking of that. it's been a while since i've watched the show though x

hi im normally a silent watcher but the next step was literally my childhood and im so glad you're making this podcast. i'll always miss season 1, 2 and 3 :( it will never be the same and thank you for making these videos and i cant wait for the podcast. i love you brit (my riley) and the rest of season 1-3 cast too

James and Riley duets have always been my favourite dances!! The internationals duet will forever be my favourite but this is second because it’s just so fun and beautiful and I always found it so sweet how James had to wait for ‘the voice’ before doing the b twist, and ‘the voice’ wasn’t his best friends it was Riley. Also I love ballet so much it’s so beautiful to watch

Does it get tiring that no matter what roles you take up, we seem to always circle you back to Riley?

9:05 for ripping the clothes off, I think Brennan is thinking of Season 6 Regionals the “even when your gone” dance , they change from black to red and then Noah (Myles erlick) changed from red to black , symbolizing a a story that they don’t need him anymore

question for the podcast(btw i can't wait for it):after the end of the seasons and the touring,have you ever reunited with the entire cast of season 1/2? have there been any fights that led you to not interacting with some cast members anymore?

Tns was the show I watched every day of my childhood, the nationals episodes I watched all the time

i would love to see the internationals tiebreaker, it was such a beautiful piece and really hard to top in the tns world.

Question 1: Was there anyone you met/saw at the auditions that you were surprised didn’t make it onto to the show? Question 2: If you could make up one character to add into the show that was based on you/ your life experiences what sort of personality and dancer would you choose and what character developments and challenges would you have them go through? Question 3 (Not TNS related but I am curious) : If you could live in any fantasy house - from like a TV show, movie or book series - which would you choose and why? Awesome video! ❤❤❤

Yayy! More reaction vids! I am rewatching The Next Step (again), because of your reaction vids and a choatic mind. Can’t wait for summer vacation.

I loved having the background info on the dance! Would love to see more of these your awesome

Love this video! Question for the podcast: Seeing all your great ideas for storylines from your reaction videos, are there any storylines that you wish happened for your character during filming?

I love that you both are posting! I have more tns content to watch now, love you guys!

I love you so much Britt. Getting to re-live some of my favourite memories from my childhood through these reactions is amazing🥹❤️

I loved this reaction video and the remaking of the jiley duet, so excited for the podcast 🫶🫶 - also can’t believe it’s been 2 years since Australianaires?! I remember i used to watch it religiously in lockdown. “such a good fissshhh”

Yess this was so interesting! Would love to see more of this

Ngl yesterday I was searching for someone reacting to this duet. So very happy, thank you❤

I've watched The Next Step since I was a little girl and Riley has always been my favorite character, so seeing you and Brennan come back to those old episodes and recreate the scenes/react to them makes me feel extremely happy and nostalgic. I also absolutely love the backstories, I'd have never imagined how much work is behind one dance or a whole competition scene. It's so fun to find out about the show from your perspective! My question for the podcast is: Do you own any props or wardrobe from the set til this day? If so, which ones? Can't wait for the first episode, keep up the great work!❤

So this is not a question but this is me telling you that me and my best friend love The Next Step more than words could express and we have, what we call, a “next step tree” where we have ranked every character that has had some kind of noticeable role in order of most iconic to absolute trash. This sat pride of place on our living room wall till I recently moved out. Just for some context, we are both 21 and are not ashamed to admit how obsessed we are with that show. We love you guys lots, stay slay❤️

aaaa this is my favorite episode ever, such a nice reaction!!! 💕 btw, australianaires was really amazing, really exciting to see Brennan and you getting back to KOF :))

YES i LIVE for the Brennan/Brittany collabs - I love seeing you react to the show with other cast members!

my favorite duo ❤

I love love love LOVE that duet!

Again LOVE THE VID! I can’t wait to see more of your reactions on tns! I really like how you are planning on doing little reactions to earlier seasons bc I would love to see that. I am sooo watching/listening to this podcast bc I mean common who wouldn’t. Can’t wait to hear more about ur experience and stuff on tns. ❤ love you x

i really liked the video you put a smile on my face it was so much fun to watch it, when i saw brennan's video and saw the part where you comment on the dance i said in my head it would be really fun to see them make a full video about this duet and here it is the day after it came out the full video, and a very good podcast idea can't wait to watch it, ❤ q: what is your favorite group dance from the seasons you were in?

podcast questions: are you and trevor still friends? is there anyone in the cast you didn’t get on with? do you ship jiley or ralfie? what was your favourite tns moment? will you ever react to season 4? if you could change anything about the show what would it be? do you still talk to giuseppe? for brennan how’s ur ankle? xx

Q: wasn't it weird for you to act as Trevor's girfliend knowing he dated Jordan, or did they start dating after the show?

OMG im excited for the podcast! Cant wait for the questions you guys have avoided what?!?!!

Love both of you guys

Haha literally just came from watching you guys recreate this

Imagine this storyline to have a cameo from Riley! Riley suddenly just turns up in dance gear ready to train. The current team are confused. Riley, in a talking head, is finding it strange that the team seems different and her technique isn’t up to standard. Cliffhanger! Next episode we find out Riley has had an emotional breakdown and in order to cope has reverted back to when she felt most safe, at The Next Step! Can bring back other past team members to help her heal and move on! Btw…loving the videos 😊

So excited for this podcast!

A podcast!! I’m so excited!!

I’m so excited for the podcast! Questions: what was the audition process like? How did you first find out about the show? Did you like preforming during the Big Ticket Summer Concert?

now we want the reaction to the iconic International duet,it's a need britt

When I was a kid this duet was one of my favourites ever of jiley and it still is ❤😢

Omg cant wait for the podcast!

8:50-9:07 - Is Brennan referring to the heartbreaker duet where Riley pulls under James’ shirt multiple times before storming off? That’s the only one I can think of regarding their intense duets as they were going through a rough time during that moment mainly because of James cheating on Riley which led to them losing chemistry. Question - What are your thoughts on Riley and Ella’s relationship in Season 3? In addition to this, what different direction would you have liked to have seen Riley explore or go through in Season 4?

I need more reactions to jiley honestly what an iconic duo

YESSSSSSSSS THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH I LOVE IT Please do internationals duet too!

this makes me so happy ❤

OH MY GOD PODCAST YES!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE all the behind the scenes gossip!

ive loved this show ever since i was a baby in i was drawn to it in 2013 when i first aired love you britt love you #riley #thenextstep❤❤❤❤

Did you ever take anything from set? Either some costume from a dance, something physical from some set, or anything similar?

I'm so excited for the podcast you and Brennan together makes me so happy. Q: Do you ever regret 'giving up' dance for acting?

Question: Why was Daniel written to have an injury in Season 1 was Brennan unavailable to film during when he was “written off”. Btw I love u guys you have practically raised me I loved watching the next step as a kid and it inspired me to become a dancer and I constantly look up to you both as inspiration. I am so proud of you guys making a podcast and I can’t wait to watch it.

You are amazing dancer on the next step 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

i'm sooo excited for this podcast aaaa

Britt and Brennan podcast was not on my 2023 bingo card but I’m here for it

Unfortunately season 8 isn't available to watch anywhere in New Zealand. I think I saw one or two episodes. But then it was taken off KZfaq. So....yea.

I honestly love this content and I love your theories

Did you enjoy being on the show? I grew up on the show and saw you guys live I think in 2015. I cried I was such a huge Riley fan. Still as a grown women now I sometimes go back and watch the show the early seasons and watch it. I think it would be cute to have Riley and James kids be at the studio and that would be how you would appear of James and Riley are getting married and they get married at the studio

was just re watching this episode and just saw the notification it’s like the government is watching

I don't usually listen to podcasts but I'll definitely listen to yours!!!

my favorite duet i’m going to cry

Questions: which performance was your favourite? What was your reaction once the show started getting bigger/ more viewers? What character would you want to play besides your own?

Ahh, so happy you are doing the podcast. My questions would be: 1. Out of all the dances you did, which one is your favorite? 2. Which scene was the most fun to shoot? 3. What did you like the most and the least about your characters storyline?

i think bren was thinking of a season 6 group of Even When We're Gone or Myles and Briars duet for th band Walk Off The Eartth with their cover of Issues

Love you and love your videos ❤

Questions: 1. What was the hardest dance you had to perform on TNS? 2. Who was your favorite character? 3. Would you recreate more routines with Brennan? (I know you've done one already it was really fun to watch) 4. What was it like during the real rehearsals? 5. What was your favourite dance? (It doesn't have to be one with you in it) 6. What was your favourite dance that you peformed in? 7. Any favourite TNS songs? 8. What was your favourite season? 9. Was the TNS studio a real studio? 10. Did you ever name that chicken on the wall in the studio everyone was scared of? If you did what was it's name? 11. Are you still friends with Trevor?

Woah this is so cool!

This is my all time favourite dance from the next step

Q: what aspects producers/writers consider to "decide" which main characters are going to be in A-troupe and which ones on B-troupe (for example Giselle being on B-troupe at the start of season 1 or Amanda being an alternate on season 3) Is it only actors availability? Love you!! Regards from México 🇲🇽

where was your favourite place to film and why/what episodes were your favourites?

Q: which storyline (from your characters) was your favorite? And which one you dislike the most? Love you both! Regards from México 🇲🇽

watched this show countless times since i was 7 and now im 15 lol but question for the podcast: were you scared of the acting part of taking on the roles of Daniel/Riley because you mostly had dance experience? 2. how many dances and how much choreography did you have to learn and remember for the show? 3. are there any storylines that you didn't like about your character (maybe some of daniels storylines😅) 4. did you hang with the cast outside of set whilst filming often? 5. and just a fun question. what was your favourite part of the episodes when they are all exploring miami in s3? eg. the boys going to the everglades.

i remember how it first made me feel watching it❤ i can’t believe its almost 10 years ago

I watched you on the TNS tour in 2017 on your last one of the tour I think, I dont really watch the show anymore apart from your reactions but recently found a letter I wanted to send to you guys from when I was very young asking you what your favourite dance you performed on the show was and I’d also love to know what it was like touring and not only dancing but also talking to/entertaining an audience not just with dance?

can't wait for the podcast! Q: did all the cast get along during production? and do you still keep in contact with any of them?

Aww this is one of my favourite dances from tns! My question is, what's it like to play a character if you don't agree with the direction the writing is going in? E.g when Jiley's relationship being messy, Riley being a bad studio head or anything else from another role. Can you have any say, or do you very much have to do what is asked? Also I would LOVE to see Riley's kid at the next step! It might be a bit of way off for Riley, but I wonder if they could have Miss Kate's kid or something?

this is my favourite dance in the entire show

Will definitely listen in to the podcast! As for questions, I'd like to know if it's hard or awkward to act out an on-screen relationship

I can't wait for the podcast! I would want to know about your public image or just experience in general being in a show that was directed to children or young people. I imagine it can be hard and I enjoy watching videos of you out of character and also relating more to the adult world as I am now older. Also, I understand you must be tired of always being reminded of Jiley, so just if you want to and for this same reason I wonder what was your perception of it along the way. It was my favorite story and when I watch you talking about it you seem tired of the topic (which is understandable) maybe because of all the attention and questions or maybe things that happened that made you uncomfortable (?.

I consistently use this song to dance to

yess loved this!!! i just commented an idea like this on ur last vid, excited for more and the podcast q for podcast - if u got to play any of the other characters on tns not including each others, who would it be??

I love knowing that you would come back to tns 😭

Cant wait for the new podcast! I want to know what your favorite dances you did on the next step, and also what was your favorite competition to film?

it’s crazy to me that this dance alone is my childhood

I can't wait to see this

PODCAST QS: Was there a specific interaction or scene you guys had that instantly confirmed for you that acting is what you wanted to pursue more further?
