Nashville will air an all-new episode on ABC later tonight, but fans know the end is near. The network cancelled the series last week, but there is still hope. With the people behind the series actively looking for a new home, it is possible that the series could return for a fifth season.
However, Connie Britton has already shared a message with her fans about the cancellation of the series on social media. She shared the following message after the news broke, according to TV Line:
“To the amazing friends and family who are Nashville, to the cast and crew, and most of all to the fans…I’d just like to say it’s been my honor to be a part of this world, to live in it and breathe it in and try to replicate it. Sometimes we were more successful than others. But the place of Nashville in my heart is deep and permanent. I am grateful for the hard work and faith of so many who dedicated themselves to creating and supporting this show. And I am forever changed for the better. Thanks for the music.”
According to TV Guide, the actress also spoke about the cancellation of the series on a talk show appearance earlier this week. Nashville has been a big part of her life. She has raised her adopted son there since 2011. She said the following:
“I’ll talk to my Nashville friends, and they’re all devastated. It’s a real bummer also for the town too. I’m going to miss those people so much. I’m so upset, then I talk to my friends in L.A., and they’re like, ‘We’re so happy you’re coming home.’ So I’m just like, I don’t know what I feel! [My son is] 5, and we’ve been doing the show there for four years, so it’s a big deal. It’s over. The end of an era. I think he’s going to just ditch me now because he’s like, ‘I’m staying in Nashville now. These people are cool. I’m learning how to play the drums. See you later.'”
The finale for the series will air next Wednesday night. Do you want another network to come in and save Nashville from the grim reaper? Tell us what you think.
Excellent show and actors. The music is amazing. We need at least one more season.
Nashville is such a breath of fresh air! With all the hospital shows, cop shows, and reality tv I loved that Nashville was different!!! The show was loaded with talent!! I would hate to see this show a show unlike everything else leave the air!!
Very upset that Nashville has been cancelled. Would love to see it picked up by another network.
I simply love the show…of all the shows to cancel, this isn’t the one!! The characters are amazing & some relationships fans have been waiting forever on are just now getting started!! I know a couple of ways to seriously spin this show so if writers have dried up on ideas they should contact me!!!
Please don’t end Nashville!!! I love it! The characters are well formed, there’s amazing elements, fantastic music and the actors are real and believeable! I’m beyond sad!!!
I love this show. Never miss it. Please find a new home for this amazing cast, music and city.
Please do not cancel Nashville. It is the highlight of my week. Television for the most part is just not good. Nashville is an exception. It makes you feel all the emotions and draws you in. We need more entertainment like this show. It will break my heart if the show is not continued. Please reconsider
This really stinks I really love true show. I hope some one will pick it up. This girl is sad:(
I do not understand the ending of this series. It has been the one night of the week that I looked forward to TV. So upset!!
This is the only show that I watch weekly. I am so beyond sad to see this go. Wonderful cast and very enjoyable. Shame on you ABC!
This show has real music and talent, drama, romance, thrills and chills! It brings up real life issues in a tasteful way and is better than the majority of shows out right now. If another network doesn’t pick it up, it will be a true shame.
I hope someone takes over this show. I look forward to it every Wednesday night. I love the actors and the music. Please don’t cancel.
I can’t believe this show is cancelled. It’s one of 2 shows I watch each week. I love this show and I have a blog group about it. Omg. Keep this show!
Definetly hope another network picks up Nashville I’m devastated didn’t believe abc cancelled such a great show
I am absolutely shocked this show is being cancelled! I LOVE this show and had no idea it was on the chopping block. Bring it back!!!
