Already in this young second season of the ABC hit drama hit Nashville, I am beginning to wonder just how far they can go with all this DRAMA! Rayna backs out of the tour with Juliette due to her family “situation”. Juliette is pissed…but eventually succumbs to brings in the new teen sensation to open for her. She also comes to Maddie’s rescue when Maddie runs away after some big “dog and pony show” supporting the symphony she attends with her Mom, sister and finds her “Dad” (Teddy) there with Peggy. Juliette is a mess, but she does have a good heart when the chips are down. Maddie is really wanting to know more about her real Dad, Deacon, and this is going to be a very interesting storyline as this season progresses. Rayna and Deacon are not together, at least not for now, and Deacon is exploring a relationship with the hot shot lawyer who took his case pro bono when he insisted on trying to take on the blame for the accident he and Rayna were in, when in fact while he was drinking, he was not driving, Rayna was. The interchange between these two characters is going to be interesting to follow. She lost her husband in a tragic murder and later visited the young man who committed the murder in a way of healing her anger and loss. Two wounded souls coming together to help each other heal? Meanwhile, Tandie has evidence that her snake of a father, Lamar, was in fact behind the death of her mother (Rayna’s mother as well, of course) in a “car accident” and decides to turn over evidence to the FBI that could bury him. But people like Lamar always seem to find a way out of their devious and diabolic underhanded doings.
Teddy has proposed to Peggy (believing she is still pregnant with his child, she is not as she has miscarried) and he upsets his children and Rayna with his dumb a__ actions. Gunnar grows a pair and decides not to let Will take credit for the hit song he wrote. Good for Gunnar, he is a true talent, both as a song writer and a performer whereas Will is all smoke and mirrors, hiding his sexuality and trying to capitalize off of Gunnar’s talent. Scarlett is enjoying time with her childhood friend, the preacher’s daughter, and who knows what lies ahead for her. She is Rayna’s star on her new record label, but will she reunite with Gunnar, Avery, or neither?
Supposedly Rayna and new Edgewood Record owner, Jeff played by Oliver Hudson, will have an on and off love relationship this season but that has not yet materialized. Still not sure she and Deacon are over. Deacon is certainly going to have a relationship with daughter Maddie, that is evidently going to be a strong storyline this season. How that will impact the relationship with Rayna remains to be seen but he is moving on at this point and Rayna is tying to as well.
This show is so full of drama, twists and turns, but then again, that is likely what keeps people watching and makes it likely to get renewed, right? Really love Connie Britton, she was so great on Friday Night Lights, that I have to pull for this new show to succeed for her. She is a joy to watch!
