History YMMV / Nashville

** What seemed at first to be a shameless piece of stunt casting really paid off with Christina Aguilera’s surprisingly rich and complex performance.
* HilariousInHindsight / {{Squick}}: One comment on ''Entertainment Weekly'''s site pretty much sums it up: "Weird to see Coach Yoast's daughter from ''RememberTheTitans'' making out with one of the football players. 'Remember when we were in that movie when I was 11? Now, pucker up.'" (Burgess Jenkins (Juliette's producer Randy) played racist player Ray in the movie, which was actually made (and released) when Hayden Panettiere was ten.)

* MainstreamObscurity: It's regarded as one of the landmark movies of the NewHollywood era, but it's never really entered the public consciousness the way that, say, ''Movie/TaxiDriver'' or ''{{Movie/Chinatown}}'' has. It has an enthusiastic fanbase of mainly film buffs and Altman fans. While it wasn't a BoxOfficeBomb,[[note]]it grossed around $10 million on $2 million budget[[/note]] it still didn't play to a huge audience at the time, and it's very rarely played on TV (probably because of its nearly three-hour length), so anyone interested in seeing it has had to seek it out.

** Autumn, who spends every bit of her screentime trying to get Gunnar to sleep with her, and also trying to break up the Exes, and we're never given the slightest idea why, especially since Rayna had vouched for her integrity.

* ComeForTheXStayForTheY: Come for Connie Britton and the music amidst the drama, stay for Hayden Panettiere (and the music amidst the drama).
** Or, Come for [[Series/WhoseLineIsItAnyway Chip Esten singing]], stay for the music amidst the drama.

* JustHereForGodzilla: It seems ''Series/{{Heroes}}'' fans just want to see their favorite cheerleader singing in the show, while ''FridayNightLights'' fans just want to see their favorite coach's wife in the spotlight. Although some are watching for an Creator/{{ABC}} soap graduate who ''isn't'' called Hayden "[[Series/GuidingLight Lizzie Spaulding]]/[[Series/OneLifeToLive Sarah Roberts]]" Panettiere; for ''Series/GeneralHospital'' fans, it's all about Jonathan "Lucky Spencer" Jackson... and then there are the ones who watch for Charles Esten.

** Season Five looks to be headed this way as well, with the show [[spoiler: taming down Juliette's character to the point of nearly removing all her sassy traits, immediately breaking Scarlett and Gunnar up again for... some reason, and most controversially of all, killing Rayna.]] Critics are already questioning how the show intends to survive the last one. And the decision to increase the focus on Maddie and Daphne [[TheyChangedItNotItSucks hasn't gone down well.]]

** The fact that the DVD release of Season 4 is still {{Vaporware}} as of December of 2016 without even a hint of a release date isn't sitting well with fans either. A leading fan theory is that Disney and ABC are sitting on the DVD release out of spite.

* HeReallyCanAct / [[HeReallyCanAct She Really Can Act]]: Some people who only know Chip Esten from ''WhoseLineIsItAnyway'' and other improv shows (and ''{{Series/Jessie}}'') have the former reaction. The latter reaction mainly comes from those who think Hayden Panettiere can only play cheerleaders.

** But in a crowded field, Layla may likely have been the winner had she not been dropped due to the ChannelHop, but Maddie... Maddie, Maddie, Maddie. Maddie Conrad/Claybourne/Jaymes' BrattyTeenageDaughter tendencies get on the nerves of many from season two to... well, the present. [[spoiler: She isn't grateful for becoming a joint recording artist under Rayna alongside her sister Daphne and decides the appropriate and mature response is to ignore Daphne in favour of newcomer Cash, play bars while pretending to be 21 and pretending to be a 'bad girl' in a way that makes season 1 Juliette look mature, then try and emancipate her parents for not letting her do what she wants. Most previews with her in tend to get derisive responses.]] We nmay have the Scrappy Emeritus. Not helped that [[spoiler: suggestions that the show will ''increase'' emphasis on her.]]

** Go onto any board discussing the show and you'll be hardpressed to find ''anyone'' who likes Layla Grant for anything other than her singing ([[TestosteroneBrigade or her looks]]). It counrinued after Aubrey Peeples (as Layla) gets PromotedToOpeningTitles in season four.[[spoiler: Not least when she started moving onto Avery and scheming to basically taking everything of Juliette.]]

** Juliette is offered, and accepts, the opportunity to write and record an end title song for her Patsy Cline biopic - although musical biopics generally feature the work of the movie's subject over the credits... for instance, 1985's ''Sweet Dreams''. Which was about Miss Cline, and ended with "Crazy." (Then again, that movie also had specially commissioned score over the first part of the credits (similarly ''Get On Up'' segues from James Brown to Thomas Newman), plus unlike Hayden Panettiere (or ''Coal Miner's Daughter'''s Sissy Spacek) Jessica Lange lipsynced to Patsy's voice rather than sing for real.)

** The fact that the DVD release of Season 4 was still {{Vaporware}} as of November of 2016 without even a hint of a release date isn't sitting well with fans either. A leading fan theory is that Disney and ABC are sitting on the DVD release out of spite.

** Let's just say that Creator/{{Disney}}[=/=]Creator/{{ABC}} and Creator/{{Lionsgate}}'s decision to NOT put the show on Creator/{{Netflix}} has [[{{Understatement}} not been popular]] with the fans. [[{{RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgement}} And let's just leave it at that!]]

** The fact that the DVD release of Season 4 was still {{Vaporware}} as of late-September of 2016 without even a hint of a release date isn't sitting well with fans either. A leading fan theory is that Disney and ABC are sitting on the DVD release out of spite.

** The fact that the DVD release of Season 4 is still {{Vaporware}} as of mid-September of 2016 without even a hint of a release date isn't sitting well with fans either. A leading fan theory is that Disney and ABC are sitting on the DVD release out of spite.

** Dante, Jolene's therapist [[spoiler: and Juliette's new manager]], succeeded in giving both Juliette fans and Juliette haters ([[BaseBreaker and there are plenty of both]]) something to agree on - they hated him. [[spoiler: And this was ''before'' he took her for $450,000 and then threatened to release a tape of their having sex, thus proving to be an intentional example thereof. So not many tears when, like Peggy, he got bumped off.]]
