Nashville Star Moving to NBC - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Zoneboy · 01-18-2008, 03:03 AM

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - USA Network's "Nashville Star" is moving to NBC, which will launch a sixth season of the country singing contest in the summer, along with the second season of "American Gladiators."

The two unscripted shows will serve as cornerstones of the network's "NBC's All-American Summer" promo campaign leading into NBC Universal's coverage of the Summer Olympics in Beijing.

After the fifth season of "Nashville" aired on USA a year ago, the cable channel indicated that it wasn't planning to renew the series.

Multicity auditions for "Nashville" will begin in February. For the first time, the series will be open not just to solo artists but also to duets and singing groups.

This is the second time in the past month that NBC has reached to sister cable network USA for original programming. In part as a strike contingency, NBC recently closed a deal to recycle USA's hit comedy dramas "Monk" and "Psych."

I like that show (believe it or not

) and I was wondering if it was returning this year, as it usually comes around about the same time as Idol. Adding duets and groups should be interesting.

I was wondering that myself.
I love NS because I love country music and am glad it's coming back. This could be a smart move by NBC as long as they don't screw it up!
