Susan Sarandon is going Country with Trace Adkins as her husband in Fox’s new show Monarch. After watching the first trailer, I am all in like a cowboy impregnating his prized horse with some champion sperm. That sounds so wrong, but I have only lived in big cities, so this Yankee does not know any country references.
Maybe I will learn some when I watch the drama that debuts with a two-night event starting on January 30th and concluding February 1st on its regularly scheduled night.
For those of you, weren’t as turned on with the show as I was after watching the trailer, here is what it is about. In MONARCH, reigning King of Country Music ALBIE ROMAN (Adkins), along with his insanely talented, but tough as nails wife, Queen of Country Music DOTTIE CANTRELL ROMAN (Sarandon), have created a country music dynasty. But even though the Roman name is synonymous with authenticity, the very foundation of their success is a lie. And when their reign as country royalty is put in jeopardy, heir to the crown NICOLETTE “NICKY” ROMAN (Friel) will stop at nothing to protect her family’s legacy, while ensuring her own quest for stardom, alongside her brother, LUKE ROMAN (Sasse), and sister, GIGI ROMAN (Ditto).
The drama also stars Anna Friel, Josh Sasse, Beth Ditto, Meagan Holder, Inigo Pascual, Martha Higareda. and Emma Milani.
They better get the mechanical bull ready for me to sit on because that is where I will be watching the series from. Yeehaw!
