Looks like I got me a new show

So, I saw the Nashville pilot, and my review's just been published. Short version: I like it. I like it a lot. If TV's going to tackle country music, I want them to get it right, and it looks like they're bending over backwards to do just that. It would be fantastic if this series could help country gain a little mainstream attention.
Of course, if this means that a couple of months from now, people will be walking around acting all knowledgeable about bands and singers that they've only just heard of for the first time, it'll be hard not to giggle. But I shall attempt to giggle in a kindly and encouraging manner!
As for the show itself, there are a lot of nice dramatic storylines to follow, and I like the characters just enough to be interested in following them, but not enough to be devastated when they do stupid things. (Because they will. This is a soap. Stupid things are a given.)
So, yep, I think this one's a keeper!
