Acclaimed country-music drama “Nashville” has returned for a fourth season—with more jaw-dropping, heartbreaking moments than ever before.
Season Three concluded with the ultimate cliffhanger—a flatline—as Deacon went under the knife to receive a liver transplant from his sister, Beverly. And when all is said and done, Rayna must learn to negotiate professional demands in the face of unthinkable personal tragedy. After the birth of her daughter Cadence, Juliette began to suffer from worsening postpartum depression and consequently recommitted to her music and movie careers—a choice that will cause her professional life to sizzle but her family life to fizzle. Her husband Avery, meanwhile, must determine how—and where—to raise their baby girl. Rayna’s teenage girls, Maddie and Daphne, grapple with growing pains of their own, knowing they have different fathers—one of whom (Deacon) may die in surgery and the other of whom (Teddy) is headed to prison.
Elsewhere, cowboy Luke Wheeler has recruited superstar Juliette Barnes to be on his record label—a timely boon, considering his biggest artist, Will Lexington, came out publicly at a press conference to the surprise of the whole industry. Scarlett and Gunnar, who together comprise musical duo The Exes, still remain exes as they embark on tour for their latest E.P., but their chemistry—both onstage and off—might soon be too powerful for them to deny. And Jeff Fordham, Rayna’s nemesis, continues to be romantically enmeshed with Highway-65 artist Layla Grant, the only person who can see the good in him but whom he always manages to hurt—whether he means to or not.
This season will see ”Nashville’s” singers, songwriters and superstars struggle to reconcile their public and private realities. Some will fight to climb to—or stay on—the top. Some will succumb to their own ambition. And all will learn how to survive in the wake of loss—proving that music may be at the heart of Music City, but drama always reigns.
“Nashville” stars Connie Britton as Rayna Jaymes, Hayden Panettiere as Juliette Barnes, Clare Bowen as Scarlett O’Connor, Chris Carmack as Will Lexington, Will Chase as Luke Wheeler, Charles Esten as Deacon Claybourne, Jonathan Jackson as Avery Barkley, Sam Palladio as Gunnar Scott, Maisy Stella as Daphne Conrad, Lennon Stella as Maddie Conrad and Aubrey Peeples as Layla Grant.
Dee Johnson (“Boss,” “The Good Wife”), “The War Room,” “A Perfect Candidate”), Callie Khouri (“Thelma & Louise”) and Steve Buchanan are executive producers of ““Nashville”.” The series is produced by Lionsgate, ABC Studios and Opry Entertainment

Just realized there's a new thread, so posting here instead...
I wish we got a Chip and Connie shot, but I guess that would be too much of a spoiler for instagram.
Also, Jimmy Kimmel is on tonight instead of Nashville...no repeat :-(

Chip and Connie weren't shooting today.. neither one of them is in Nashville at the moment... maybe Monday or Tuesday when there will also be lots of extras around
And there was a press release that 406 was supposed to rerun tonight... but apparently reruns in our own time slot is too much for ABC

Oh, I didn't mean from yesterday for the photo, I just meant in general for 411. I doubt they'll be one of them dressed up from one of the more famous guests, but I guess you're right, there could always be an extra that leaks one.

Usually when they get that many extras something ends up on social media. The cast and crew probably won't leak that (except maybe the Stellas on Snapchat :lol:). But I plan on being on the look out on Monday and Tuesday, lots of extras and Connie and Chip should be there

Why would they need photo doubles for the wedding? Aren't doubles usually used during scenes that are dangerous for the actor or if the actor can't be on set?

Guessing it's just because it's a long day. And the girls being minors I'm sure there are limits on how long they can be on set. So if they're just in the background of the afternoon scenes they can just use doubles and let the cast go home :shrug:

True, it's probably for an Avery or Layla scene where the Claybourne/Conrads/Jaymes wouldn't be involved, but they should be there because it's their wedding.
