I just watched this week's episode. What a snore. It was the first episode that I actively disliked. I hate to say it, but there was just too much music in it. Everyone takes it all so fucking seriously, that there is no joy in it. And they all ooh and ah over songs that are pretty pedestrian. My Favorite Hurricane? What a crap fest. I don't care for any of the characters anymore, except Daphne! Scarlett is too mopey. Gunnar is a cipher. (I never noticed how much he looks like he could be Ben Affleck's brother.) I'm sick of Deacon's hoarse whispery fake voice. Reyna is too reactive. Maddie is a sullen teenager. And Clay? Her boyfriend? He is cliche on top of cliche on top of cliche. I hate to say it, but one more show like last night, and I will stop watching it.

Although I think Reyna is a little too sappy and reactive, I can't imagine the show without her. She really is the hub for all the spokes of the story. If they wanted to write her out, they should have introduced a character who would be able to step into that roll, what with running the record company which most of the acts are signed to. Without her, the connections of all the characters are gone. Deacon might be handsome, but his character is a bore and dull. There is no way he can be the glue that holds the show together.

Even though I had heard Connie Britton didn't want to be on the show any more, I didn't actually think they were going to go and kill her off. At this point, a sixth season is probably not going to happen.

I thought the initial issue was that the show became too soapy and melodramatic in season two and not about the music as it was originally envisioned. I'd take the melodrama over this family drama it's become with Rayna's annoying daughters getting actual plotlines.

And where the hell is Will and why isn't he screwing Murray Bartlett's character?

This show is my guilty pleasure. I watched the first season and forgot about it lol. With that being said they should hire some actual country musicians instead of actors. Many of those country stars have the look to pull it off. Empire is so over the top and has good producers so it doesn't hurt that the main leads aren't natural musicians. I like this show because it sort of takes you to a place you wish you could be in. It's hard to explain.

Did the billionaire tech guy hit on Will yet. It seems like they were going there with that.

It is telling that the show is not working when the lead character gets killed off, yet no one is upset about it. Contrast that with This is Us, which I have never watched, yet have heard from so many people how upset they are that a character died. And I live in Nashville People should be talking about the show, but no one cares anymore. I used to love it, but doubt I will tune back in. It appears that the new runners are trying to focus more on the characters and less on the melodrama, but they inherited a stable of pretty uninteresting characters.

I stopped watching last season, and only tried this season because H/Z were taking over, and I was curious how they'd work. I am enjoying the dialogue, and how the characters talk to each other, but the biggest problem is that the most fascinating character (Will) is doing nothing, and the catalytic character (Juliette) is on a quiet character arc that only involves Avery and a bunch of extras.

Rayna was always the glue, but never the attraction. With her gone, it will be telling to see if we see some character-driven action (as opposed to the character-driven talking we have had so far this season).

I've always had affection for this show, as a semi-guilty pleasure, and have stuck with it. Rayna was DEFINITELY the glue, and the mother hen to all of these disfunctional, needy millennial characters. How this show continues to work without her, I have no idea. The showrunners are putting on a brave face publicly about it. I love Deacon, but what the hell do they do with him now? I guess it's struggling to single-parent those two bitchy girls. I like nice-guy Gunnar, but Scarlett is eye-rollingly annoying. And Juliette is no fun as a born-again nice person. And where the fuck has Will been?

I hope CMT isn't caving to conservative fans to desexualize Will.

This isn't like the '90s with Melrose Place.

by Anonymousreply 55February 26, 2017 5:50 AM

You'd think if they wanted to desexualize Will they'd keep him in a boring relationship. The fact that they had him break up with his boyfriend and then immediately start flirting with 3 different guys suggests they're trying to sexualize him. But maybe there was backlash and now they just decided to remove him from most of the show.

Where was Rayna's new partner when she was in the hospital? Funny how he also disappeared from the show.

The show feels more disjointed now like they have different writers for each characters. It's beginning to remind me of Glee the later years where there were too many cooks and no one knew each other's storyline.

R73. NG1 here. CMT doesn't need much money for music rights, because they do a very inexpensive buyout. They don't pay for sync fees the way most tv shows do. A friend of mine wrote a song that was been played many times throughout several episodes this season , and she just got a very small buyout, so lack of money isn't the reason that there is so little music now.

The show has run its course. The first few seasons were interesting, and it showed more about behind the scenes in the music industry -- even though it hit a LOT of false notes -- but now it is just adult drama, and the music and Nashville setting are no longer relevant or a large part of the story. It could just as easily be about insurance executives in Topeka. I didn't realize how much I missed the fast melodrama until it was replaced by the current season, which is boring and lackluster, and filled with characters that just aren't very interesting. Deacon is a bore. Gunner is a cypher. Scarlett is written badly, as a sniveling idiot. Maddie is a bitch. Daphne is wonderful and I would watch a whole show built around her. Carter is every black music cliche on top of cliche. Will is interesting, but they seem to have written him out. I thought Luke was a great character; he had heart and intelligence and a morality that I liked, but he's gone. I will watch the show maybe one more time just to see what they plan to do without Reyna there, but it will probably be my last time watching. The runners ruined a good thing.

A friend of mine worked for Natalie Merchant back when she was still in Maniacs, and he told me that she gave everyone at least a year's notice that she was leaving, because she knew that their incomes and jobs would be affected by that, and she wanted to make sure everyone was prepared and not blind sided. I thought that was considerate of her.

I don't think Springsteen felt quite the same way as Stipe and Merchant. R91 here. I'm not a big Springsteen fan, but one of my best friends worked for his management company. Springsteen is a nice-enough guy, but he is surrounded by people who drank the kool aid. They all think it's their "mission" to make it possible to spread the gospel of Bruce. There is something almost cult-like in the devotion of people around him. So...nothing against Bruce, but I think it would be hard for anyone doing what he does surrounded by such acolytes for so many years to think that he should not be able to do whatever he wants to do. I think a certain amount of insensitivity creeps in in a situation like that. Ergo: I don't think he gave putting the E Street Band on the sidelines much thought. He also probably gave them a stipend to make sure that were available should he change his mind on a whim.

The CMT move was very smart. But the second half of the season will see if the show can continue without Connie.

Glad to hear about a 6th season. When do they finish up this season?

Seems like everyone thinks Connie Brighton's top shit, but I didin't know who she was before Nashville. I didn't like her character and I don't think she gave an exceptional performance. I think it's a good idea to write her off so they can finally explore something other than the Deacon/Rayna repeat storylines. Far as I am concerned, I like the direction where this new season is going - with the exception of maddie and her bf storyline - i skip that. ZZzzzz

lol @ you guys debating whether Zach is attractive or not. HE'S A YOUNG BILLIONAIRE! Those are hard to find and even rarer still are they interested in men. Though I agree with one of the posters here, Will/ Gunner would make for a heck of an interesting storyline.

The stories were a little more interesting than the prior few episodes. Perhaps they had time to regroup, or were just treading water until they killed Reyna off. Deacon used to be one of my favorite characters, but I'm tired of that hoarse whisper he uses, and him calling everyone "baby" or "sweety". He is annoying.

Daphne's chance encounter slash infatuation with that sassy, streetwise, Oliver Twist "kid gang" is beyond ridiculous. I mean, what the fuck. Wonder if they'll have a sinister Fagin character.

The show has jumped the shark. The whole ragamuffin crowd is absurd, and that girl Daphne brings home is like some cliche from a 1985 Hallmark movie. It's absurd. I keep watching it in spite of myself. I enjoyed the first few seasons so much, that I'm just not willing to believe that the show has become the joke that it is. Although none of the first few episodes rang true -- I live in Nashville and am a former professional songwriter, so I know that milieu -- at least they were exciting and interesting and gripping. This season, so far, has been so completely inept and tone deaf.

Clay and Maddie are pulled over by the cops who say Clay did a rolling stop but Maddie questions where the stop sign was. Obviously Clay is being pulled over because he's black. Maddie flips out and starts filming the officer and questioning him. They're both arrested. (A couple walking by films the incident). Deacon comes to bail them out. Clay's pissed with Maddie and says that is not how you fight back and later decides they need a break.

Scarlett continues to mope and be an insufferable cow.

Juliette stole a song from Maddie when she went to a songwriter and was hoping to get some songs from him but he wanted Juliette to pass a song onto Maddie. Of course Juliette wanted it for herself so she called the guy back and said Maddie wasn't interested. Then Juliette had a pang of regret and then started to write an email to Maddie apologizing, and then deleted it Juliette style.

Not to hijack the thread, but re the moment when the cops pull the black bf over. I used to work in a restaurant, and one of the black cooks showed up an hour late. Why? Cops pulled him over because he was in a high-end white section, and made him stand with his hands on the car for an hour. This guy is the biggest teddy bear on earth, but the cops saw that he was black and in an area of town where you don't see many blacks. When the cops pulled Clay over was the first bit of reality I've seen on this show in a long time. It has really gone downhill.

r159 I have to admit the whole Maddie and Clay scene was very well directed and acted.

It's a shame that the showrunners Ed Zwick and Marshall Herskovitz are not bringing the magic they brought for their previous shows. But that one scene is proof they can still create something powerful (and Callie Khouri wrote the episode). But when it goes back to Scarlett or the lame stories it only shows how it's not reaching its full potential.

by Anonymousreply 161June 19, 2017 1:26 AM

The show seems to be just wandering plotless now. I can't figure out this Scarlet character they've created. She's finally back together with Gunnar and she falls for the Brit guy in a hot minute to the point she's crying over him. It's just stupid. Don't see why Gunnar would stick around.

Also no single dad would or should be housing some teenage girl without at least contacting social services. Another dumb subplot.

by Anonymousreply 162June 19, 2017 1:36 AM

r161, Callie Khouri hit the writing on the head in this scene. Every word out of Clay's mouth was out of the Black Mother's Guide To Driving While Black. It was spot on as well as Maddie's oblivious white privilege. That was brilliant.

A show that doesn't feel like the internet is something their grandkids told them about, but they've only seen once, in a movie. A show that doesn't make you think the characters are being cutting edge by saying the word "hashtag." A show where the characters are interesting, and you care what happens to them. A show where the characters show some consistency, instead of changing who they are for the sake of the plot.

Zach did show his ass. And it was another insipid episode. Are the writers so lazy that they have Deacon sing THREE songs at the Opry, just to fill up time so they wouldn't have to write, like, you know...actual dialog and a story? And: Deacon always talks about the integrity and country bona fides of his music, but his songs are bland pop country that wouldn't pass muster against the real, good country songs. (It was nice to hear the stupid Seattle branding chick sing the Eddy Arnold song "You Don't Know Me," the likes of which Deacon's music doesn't come close to being as good as.)

The whole contract thing with Maddie made no sense.

And Highway 65 can just walk away from the commercial without their asses being sued for millions??? Not lawyer would be in Deacon's meeting with all his country songwriter? GMAFB.

Deacon's concert at the end went on too long. I can understand two songs. That's enough to get him to his epiphany. Three or four is ridiculous.

Why Rachel Bilson (Seattle chick) was given a song to sing is a mystery. I'm guessing she just said "I'd like to sing a song" and they said ok.

This show is in trouble.

by Anonymousreply 235August 4, 2017 6:00 AM

My guess is they gave Bilson a song because they needed to fill in a few minutes. But why would she sing that glorious old song? Her character would not know it, since she professed in her first episode that she doesn't know or like country. I might be wrong, but that song is not a standard, and wouldn't be known by anyone who doesn't have at least some knowledge of country music. And why did they keep showing Maddie at the doorway, looking at her admiringly? I half expected them to be in a lesbian affair by the end of the episode. It's like the writers aren't even trying anymore; they're just going through the motions and filling time with songs instead of dialogue, as though they couldn't be bothered to right a sinking ship any longer.

The owner of the mascara company, very much NOT like the owner of a mascara company, asking for Maddie to change lyrics was a really bad plot device. Will should have sang the song and let the mascara guy blow him. See everyone happy. Mr. billionaire needs to go.

[quote]I might be wrong, but that song is not a standard, and wouldn't be known by anyone who doesn't have at least some knowledge of country music.

You're definitely wrong. It was a huge hit, and even recorded by Ray Charles on his iconic "Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music" album. It hit #2 on Billboard's Hot 100 (NOT the Country charts.) And it's been recorded by hundreds of artists.

Thanks, R238. I was only familiar with the Eddy Arnold version, or at least that's the only one I remember. It is such a great song.

THAT was a season finale? It wasn't terribly climactic, although it was better than most of the previous episodes. Has it been renewed for another season? If not, that could explain why this last episode just faded away.

RE the bitch fight between Maddie and Juliette. Yeah, J "stole" the song from M, but has M forgotten that her big song would never have been a hit if Juliette hadn't tweaked the chorus melody? I know that's awfully picky, but it bothers me that Maddie has never acknowledged Juliette's help with the song. In the real world, Juliette would have gotten some writing credit on the song.

Mopey Scarlett is one of the more annoying TV characters. Also I really hate her short haircut. It ages her and makes her look like a matron. Then again, ugly haircuts are a hallmark of country music. (although agree this is more pop than country music. Even Maddie was up for pop rock song at the American music awards scene)

What the fuck is a guitar pull?

by Anonymousreply 270January 16, 2018 1:13 AM

According to Villanova, a guitar-pull is a southern tradition where a small group of musicians sit around and take turns playing songs on a guitar. The “pull” part comes from the assumption that there was only one guitar among the group, so one may have to “pull” it away from another in order to get a turn. Big & Rich went on stage with Thompson Square and gave us one of the most entertaining shows we had ever done.

I CANNOT WAIT until the cult leader tells Juliette to jettison Avery and the big headed baby. You know it's coming. And they sort of casually mentioned that being in that cult means you give them 25% of your income. I can barely care less about Deacon and his dumb girlfriend and their endless teenagery phone calls. Ugh. And Maddie and the Beiber stand-in are pretty tiresome. Also why can't Will and Gunnar be a couple? Why???

R270 -- I live in Nashville, and "guitar pull" is a very common expression here. As a previous poster mentioned, it's a party where everyone who wants to can sing a song. They're very very common. And this show has gotten fucking dreadful! Even though the first few seasons were melodramatic, at least they were amusing and entertaining. Now? They are DULL and uneventful and just not terribly interesting. I'm a former songwriter, and, although they got a lot of the details about the music industry incorrect, it was still interesting to see people trying to break into the industry, and struggling to create music, and how important music is to their lives. In this season, the music seems like an afterthought, and it doesnt show any of the struggle and sacrifices one makes for music. It could be called "Cleveland," and be about people who work in an Amazon fulfillment center, for how little music factors into the show. It would be more interesting if they went the way of, say Crazy Ex Girlfriend, and had the songs directly addressing the situation.

A guitar pull sounds very much like a circle jerk.

And last week's episode? Is there one single character or story line that we care about? Nope! It's a shame to see something that started off so strongly end with such a whimper. I do think the two girls are fantastic. I might not like their characters much, but they are both incredible actors. I wonder if they will have an acting career after this. Their parents are singer/songwriters who are firmly rooted in Nashville -- we have mutual friends -- but they should move to LA and act, if they want to.

There’s so much to wrap up in the series finale that I’m not sure the writers knew they were writing the very last episode of the series.

It’s playing like a series heading for a cliffhanger episode, and that’s not good for fans who’ve been with it from the beginning.
