Many surprises and strong drama we live through the fifth season. The season opens with events that relate to Juliet which can create a wave of emotions throughout Nashville. Reina and Duncan face new and exciting challenges, Madi begins a training period at the Recording Studio and Avery offers a new idea of talking about the feelings of young people on YouTube. On the other hand, the Exes divorced their video, and Juliet approaches the guard named Hailey.
The pace has been slowed down -- not to a crawl, but to allow for some breathing room, to let characters have full scenes of dialogue, and reactions to those dialogues.
Nashville now almost always bums me out, even more so because it used to be a show I once looked forward to every week. But I haven't felt that way in quite a while now.
Fans who have grown weary of the show's soapy, breakneck pace should definitely give CMT's Nashville a chance. The show and its characters appear to finally be getting better with age.
The much-discussed slower pace of the action is a boon to the show's central relationships. Can't be said enough. Avery and Juliette, Deacon and Rayna - they finally have time to talk!
It's a welcome change, and fans who have grown weary of the show's soapy, breakneck pace should definitely give CMT's Nashville a chance. The show and its characters appear to finally be getting better with age.
The original tenor of the series is one of the things that made it so appealing in the first place. Add to this that the tempo of the narrative is ideal, and episodes never drag.
