It's only the second episode of CBS' new dance competition show 'Come Dance With Me', but fans are already unimpressed. From slamming the judges to the overall concept of the show, fans appear to have a lot of strong feelings about the show.

The second episode kicked off with father-son duo Jack and Avery's performance. The duo selected a Bruno Mars song for their performance and gave it their best shot. Though Avery and Jack had a blast spending time together and performing instage, the judges however felt that the performance wasn't up to the mark. Hip-hop choreographer and the show's judge Tricia Miranda critiqued the father-son duo's usage of the mic stand, while the other judge Dexter Mayfield and Jenna Dewan too felt that there was a lot of room for improvement. Finally, the father-son duo left with a score of 6.5 from the judges.

Following Jack and Avery's performance, mother-daughter duo Nicole and Emelyn took to the stage. Emelyn dedicated their contemporary dance routine to her late grandmother. Despite some glaring flaws in the second performance, the judges loved Nicole and Emelyn's performance and gave them a score of 7.5. After watching how critical the judges were being towards the contestants, fans began slamming the judges and questioning their decision to score Emelyn and Nicole's performance higher than Jack and Avery's.

A fan tweeted, "This scoring is BS. The first two danced their hearts out and this one parent, more or less sways to the music and pretends to lift her kid, scores way higher? They did the same thing last wk. Time to change the channel. #ComeDanceWithMe." "Come on seriously 6.5 is very low score and it's insulting to them! Obviously they looked disappointed after hearing their score like their self confidence shot down low..... just my opinion..... #ComeDanceWithMe," wrote a fan. "For some reason the judges are brutal with the scores and its only the 2nd episode of #ComeDanceWithMe," commented a fan.

Many fans also slammed the show for its excessive focus on the contestants' emotional backstories. A fan shared, "I guess I have to start drinking or find another way to relax on fridays baby this #ComeDanceWithMe is depressing and traumatic. Like I deal with trauma all day. I’m out @CBS @paramountplus." "#ComeDanceWithMe The show is horrible," declared a fan.
