Nashville debuts on ABC at 10p tonight and the drama is like a chart-topping country tune. There is a lot of heart and heart ache all wrapped into one hour.
Rayna James (Connie Britton) is a Country star whose career is starting to dim. Juliette Barnes (Hayden Panettiere) is the future in Nashville.
James is ready for comeback, but she isn’t selling like she used. So her label is telling her she has to open for Barnes if she still wants them to promote her. She still thinks she is the star she was when she was Barnes’ age and doesn’t want to do it. Plus she can’t can’t stand Barnes.
Barnes meanwhile is a total Diva who will do anything to get what she wants. But she has a family secret that kind of explains why she is the way she is.
When it comes to James’ family her dad is a very rich man who has convinced her husband to run for Mayor. She thinks it is a bad idea, and now she has to decide if she will support him.
And besides all of that drama, you get a look at what it is like to be a Country star in Nashville in this addictive drama that will get stuck in your head like catchy song.
The trailer is out for Hitchcock and I am Psycho for the movie that comes out on November 23rd. It looks as good as an Alfred Hitchock movie except Scarlet Johansson sounds like herself but looks like Janet Leigh.
BTW Antenna TV is going to air a Alfred Hitchock Presents Marathon on Halloween. Hitch-O-Ween will air 54 episodes in 27 hours starting at 5a on October 31st. That will help you get in the mood for the movie that stars Anthony Hopkins who could totally be the legend’s double.
CBS announced today that Undercover Boss would be returning to their schedule on Friday, November 2nd at 8p. CSI: NY then moves to 9p and Made in Jersey “has been pulled from the schedule” effective immediately per the press release. So in other words we have our first cancellation of the season even though CBS won’t admit it. They will probably air the final episodes on Saturdays, until it fails their too and then they will put it out of their misery permanently.
I think the show had potential, it just got a sh!tty timeslot and would’ve done better on Fox or Lifetime. On that note Fox, how can CBS have the first cancellation when The Mob Doctor has been asking to be whacked for weeks. Time to sever ties with that show and let it swim with the fishes already.
Henry Winkler was a guest on Howard Stern’s Sirius XM show today and the shock jock asked The Fonz if he ever curses in his personal life. The nicest guy in Hollywood without any hesitation said, “I love to say the word f*ck!” Ayyyy! Consider my mind blown. I can’t imagine him using that word because he is just so gosh darn swell. But now that I know he cusses, I find him even more attractive. I just love that he is so naughty and so nice!
BTW I am extremely upset that the f*ck was bleeped out because I would love to hear him say the word as is. I would just have to Sit On It. Yeah, I don’t know what that means either.
Yesterday on Dancing with the Stars Drew Lachey and Helio Castroneves were eliminated before constant low scorer Bristol Palin and Jimmy Kimmel wanted to know how they felt about it on his ABC late night show. So Drew Lachey admitted he sent the white powder to her, but for some reason it didn’t get enough press that he did it. Of course he was kidding…I think.
Seriously Lachey was so funny during his chat on Jimmy Kimmel Live that I so want him to get his own show. He had me laughing so hard, that I am bummed he didn’t stay on the show a little longer so we could’ve enjoyed his humor a little longer. Actually Anna Trebunskaya and Chelsie Hightower were also very funny during the chat!
And when it comes to him being unjustly eliminated before the gun-toting Palin, who is only star because she got pregnant as a teen and had the kid, he is right. His freestyle dance that got him the win during season 2 was one of the best dances ever on the show. He was robbed.
