GLEE can step aside and take its final bow. NASHVILLE was amazing and is going to be the musical show to watch now!
Connie Britton (who is brilliant) and Hayden Panettiere (who is very good) play characters who seem to be (intentionally or unintentionally) inspired by Reba McEntire and Taylor Swift. There is also the All About Eve/Margo Channing/Eve Harrington vibe. Callie Khouri (Thelma & Louise) wrote the script which blew me away.
If the rest of the season is half as good as the pilot, this will be the next big show on television. This will definitely be water cooler and coffee break conversation in offices all over the country this morning.
