After a few weeks of re-runs Nashville has a new episode. After the re-run weeks it was no longer on my to do list, so I wondered what was recording on my DVR. After checking the day of the week and the time (10:57pm) I realized it was Nashville time. Not a good sign. I had no interest in watching the re-runs which mildly is also not a good sign. I’m checking out the recording now. Thank heavens for fast forward when the wailing starts. The blondes shouldn’t be allowed to sing with the microphones on – though the songs are so bad, they should all be much shorter.
If only Gunnar’s rejection was enough to send Blondie back where she came from and off the show.
This episode seems to be scenes from a show called dumb and dumber.
Juliette invites too many people and it goes wrong. Surprise! And she can’t figure out why people seem to be blaming her. Really???
Blondie jumps Gunnar when he’s sad then seems to think that should mean something to him. He continuously blows her off, but she won’t get blown off. Why not?? Her uncle tells him to hang on to her. I yell at the tv, “Why????” Then I remember he is her uncle so he probably thinks well of her. Ewwwwwwwwwww!!!! They’re making kissy face again!!! Maybe they’ll both go off to Texas to find out what happened to his brother or something. Now she has a record deal! She’s screwed another boyfriend struggling to make it in the music business. She has no interest in a music career, but now has a record contract! They’re both trying hard and getting nowhere fast. If she’s not interested in music, it seems like she would have already moved on, or back home, or whatever. Booooo!!!!
Avery destroys the master tapes of his music and all that happens to him is the producer pouts? Seriously??? Producers in Atlanta seem to settle things with guns much more often than pouty faces. And he burned them because they didn’t sound like him? So he goes to a bar and sings a pop song which sounds like the album version of the dance mix he destroyed. Dude! What so he can put it on the album, then pay someone to re-mix it? Doh!
Rayna got to act like a Mom for a change which was nice. Usually she just seems surprised her kids came into the room. She always makes this crazy surprised face like they’ve never come into a room before. Her going off on Juliette was nice. Good momming of both of them.
Are we to believe that because Juliette saw her mother modeling taking responsibility and got yelled at by Rayna and snapped at by the substance abuse counselor she learned how to do take responsibility and then was moved to take responsibility also? Wow, Nashville really is a place of magic where dreams come true.
Deacon and the country music hating vet is a trip down the wrong road. Music is his life & defines him as a person, so why would he want to spend time with someone who doesn’t value his passion? That seems dumb to me. It’s funny, lots of people in exclusive, much sought after occupations tend to have at least one spouse that has no interest whatsoever in the thing that is most important to the person. I enjoy a challenge, but shared passions are good in a relationship I think.
Looks like there will be a new episode next week. Let’s see if I remember. I don’t think I’ll be happy until Deacon and Rayna are happily married finally and those girls finally have a real man in the house giving them fatherly advice and Avery goes back to punk country and gets famous and Juliette begins her rapid fade into obscurity and Coleman, the Deputy Mayor, does battle with Big Daddy Lamar and Gunnar finds a boyfriend and Juliette’s Mom becomes a successful, sober singer, and Scarlett goes to hell. Maybe if I move to Nashville my dreams would come true and Nashville would skip the growing pains and become the wonderful show I still believe it can become.
The Way I See It!
