She still may be, she is only going to be on Nashville for "several episodes". Nashville is very soapy, but it's very entertaining. I love that Will Chase is now a series regular.
I really hate this show, it's so boring and overblown, and it's not even good soapy drama. The hype it gets baffles me.
But good for her getting a role on a pretty popular show! If anyone was going to get me to watch it she would be the person. And I totally forgot Will Chase was on it.
I really love this show, it's so awesome and fun, and it's even good soapy drama. The hype it gets delights me.
And good for her getting a role on a pretty popular show! If anyone was going to get me to watch it over and over and over again, she would be the person. And I totally did not forget Will Chase was on it.
I guess this means we're back for Season 3!! How exciting. Definitely another reason to watch the show. Loved Season and 2 and I'm glad we'll be getting another season soon.
Why must every show be compared to THE WIRE? Yes, NASHVILLE is an old-fashioned, primetime soap opera, but it does what it does very well. We've never missed an episode in my house.
Good for Laura Benanti! I hope she has a role that sings.
Tried watching the first season and really didn't like it, but not enough to not watch genius Benanti rock it. I'm still not over the fact GO ON was cancelled, one of the funniest new sitcoms in a long time and of course it was cancelled right away.
"Some people can thrive and bloom living life in a living room, that's perfect for some people of one hundred and five. But I at least gotta try, when I think of all the sights that I gotta see, all the places I gotta play, all the things that I gotta be at"
Not every show IS compared to The Wire, why would anyone even say that? Also, if you had actually read the article, you would already know she's playing an up and coming country artist who sings.
I like Benanti. A lot. She does no wrong in my book. I watched the first season of Nashville, but couldn't get going on the second. Might be time to give it another shot before Laura show up.
"Not every show IS compared to The Wire, why would anyone even say that? Also, if you had actually read the article, you would already know she's playing an up and coming country artist who sings."
Actually, THE WIRE has become a common point of comparison and was previously used in this very thread.
My copy of the link says Benanti will play an up-and-coming country star, so, yes, she will probably sing. But if you've ever seen the show, you would know playing a country singer doesn't necessarily mean a singing part. A LOT of the characters on the show are singers. Some of them didn't get around to singing until Season 2.
You said "compared to every show" which means every show that exists. That is fundamentally untrue. She is playing a charactor that will sing, since she is playing an artist. I've watched every episode and the artists all sing.
Gavy - cool your jets, man. I was being slightly facetious when I asked if Nashville was Dawson's Creek good or The Wire good - precisely because of how often ambitious tv dramas are compared to the latter show. I'm well aware that it's a primetime soap.
