What you'll love
- Strong Writing: This could have been a really cheesy soap operay kind of show but instead it's written with a depth and realism that no other newbie show has matched.
- Connie Britton: Perhaps I'm not very impartial as Friday Night Lights is one of my all time favorite shows but Connie Britton simple knows how to potray a modern non stertypical woman. She's fantastic.
- Charactertizaon: Each character is plausible and their motivations are organic without many of the contrivances that poorly written shows rely on.
- Acting: Even with a strong lead or leads many new shows struggle casting second tier characers. Not so with nashville, every actor cast is strong and right for the parts they play.
- Complex: I've noticed a trend with pilots, it's very hard to tell what's going on. Nashville is complex with many characters and subplots but also easy to follow. The show seemlessly flows in and out of the stories it presents
- Parenting subplot: There really isn't much to complain about from this pilot, but if we're going to get nitpicky. Hayden Panettiere's character has a drug addicted mom who attempts to hit her up for money. This storyline could become tedious very quickly.
- Bottom Line: Best new show of the season so far. I hope it doesn't disappoint us or worse get canceled. Strong show I highly recommend it.
Grade: A
