Nashville is a country soap opera filled with big talents and big sounds. You can come to it because you like soap operas. You can come to it because you like country/folk music. Or you can come to it because the show is the perfect fusion of the two.
Just look at the cast and those who do the work behind the scenes. This show has a blue ribbon pedigree. I am amazed they could line up this much talent for one series. Everyone can act and most of them also sing amazingly well. Those who are responsible for the music (musical directors, songwriters, musicians) are top notch and they fill each episode with hummable hits that will have you searching for them online.
I read other reviews of the show that really reached in trying to find something wrong with it. One person even wrote that they don't show enough cowboy hats, for heaven's sake.
The show is set in the city of Nashville, so scenes often show locations that are Nashville institutions, like The Bluebird and Ryman Auditorium. I hope the residents of Nashville are embracing this show, because it is the best PR scheme ever.
Even in a series that does everything right, there are always standouts that deserve mentioning. Here are my favorites:
*Clare Bowen plays the character Scarlett. I just love the tender purity of her voice.
*Charles Esten plays the part of Deacon. He is the perfect blend of vocal talent and acting chops. Who knew, when he was on "Whose Line is it Anyway?", that his talents are so diverse.
*Lennon Stella and Maisy Stella. These lovable sisters light up the show whenever they sing. They have big successes waiting for them in singing and/or acting, if that is what they want.
I almost feel guilty singling out these few, because everyone is so talented, so easy on the eyes and ears. Congratulations to everyone involved.
