Not Everyone Enjoyed the Premiere
Not all of the reactions to Monday’s premiere of The Next Pro were positive. One user called it a “major letdown,” adding, “The format of the show needs work. I can tell they’re trying to make it more of a reality show with the house and backstory drama.”
Another user penned a lengthy response to the episode, writing, “Not the best premiere, it was rough mostly because of editing.” They added, “I don’t love Derek as a judge but he IS a great mentor. He knows what he’s talking about and I loved the advice he gave everyone.”
