What happens

Marching Orders is an American documentary television show on Netflix about The Marching Wildcats, the competition marching band of Bethune–Cookman University (BCU) in Daytona Beach, Florida. The series follows members over three weeks competing to make, and stay on, and compete with the Wildcats which are among the nation's top ranked programs. The show's first season of twelve episodes was released on August 3, 2018. The first nine of the short-form episodes feature various divisions of the Wildcats including the musicians, the Five Horsemen drum majors, and the two auxiliary corps—the Sophisticat Flag Corps and the 14 Karat Gold dance squad—as they rehearse precision high-step marching, formations, and dance routines for the season's first competition. The final episodes are filmed in Charlotte, North Carolina where the Wildcats compete in the Queens City Battle of the Bands both in the stadium's stands, and on the football field. The series is set to depart Netflix in August 2021. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
