Fans have also initiated a petition at change.org calling for ABC to reconsider its decision to cancel the TV series for Season 5 and the campaign now has over 150,000 fan signatures.
Given the position of the producer of the show regarding its Season 4 finale, fans should not be worried at all because there is a good chance that Season 5 will be realized in another network or streaming service sometime soon, if not sooner.
Hulu has picked up a previously canceled show last year in “The Mindy Project” while Netflix also did the same with “Gilmore Girls.”
What is clear at this point is that Season 5 of “Nashville” will not be happening on ABC.
“Nashville” chronicles the lives of various fictitious country music singers in Nashville, Tennessee that stars Rayna James as legendary country music superstar whose stardom begins fading while the younger Juliette emerges into the scene.
The series, created by Academy-award winner Callie Khouri and produced by R.J. Cutler, Khouri, Dee Johnson, Steve Buchanan, and Connie Britton, premiered on ABC on October 10, 2012 and had more than 8.93 million viewers. The pilot episode was made available on Hulu, iTunes, and ABC.com before it premiered on television.
