Mandy, are we the only two left watching this?
I think so.
Bummer.
1 1/2 songs in 50 minutes of show isn't helping, either.
Nope! But it makes sense too since it's more focused on the development of the story tonight. I wonder when Deacon will find out.
mhmmThat he will find out what - about Maddie?
Seriously?!?!!? We have to wait two weeks now?!?!!?
mhmm
I know - can you believe it? And they said nothing about "Coming May 1st" or anything.
I don't know. It has to be soon though to keep that storyline interesting, KWIM? They can't keep it a big old dark secret forever.
I know. Ugh! I wouldn't of known if someone hadn't told me and I checked the guide.
I know maybe by the finale.
That would make an excellent finale - talk about a cliffhanger! Let's just hope it gets picked up for next season.
It would make people tune in for sweeps.
Most definitely - more than just us, hopefully!
A big portion of my critique is that so many of the problems in the past few episodes are so clearly manufactured and so easily resolved. Take Scarlett's audition for Rayna, which drove me around the bend. How hard would it be to say, "my writing partner just suffered a death in the family; could we reschedule?" It's not like Scarlett hasn't met Rayna, or like her very favorite uncle is Rayna's Long Lost Love, and even if it were a cold audition, it would be worth mentioning. Instead, Gunnar looks like a flake, Scarlett gets the solo act, and then we have a lot of mooning around about how difficult it is. It's absolutely contrived, and in a show that has a lot of wonderful, honest moments (as well as big, campy fun ones), it played flat and stupid. I do love the show, but I think it's better than this.
As for hot-neighbor-Will, I was sure that his gross pick-up lines were a defensive cover for being gay, which I thought would actually be interesting. (Nashville is still a very macho place, and watching it confront the modern world can be pretty compelling.) Instead, we have stupid boys doing stupid boy things.
I think we may find out that Will is getting close to Gunnar and Scarlett to somehow get ahead and a recording contract.
Or maybe he's just a new nice guy. Hard to tell.
