Morning Wood: Sam Palladio

Sam Palladio

Sam Palladio plays Gunnar on ABC's Nashville - my favorite new show of the season. Gunnar's a sweetheart with a little bit of a crush on Scarlet. They got a music publishing deal with a song-writing house and now Gunnar's hooking up with one of the girls there. I can't tell if he really likes this girl - or if he just wants to like her so he can stop liking Scarlet.

Anyway, Sam is a long, languid drink of water with a sweet smile, great hair, and two delicate snaggle teeth that actually work with his shy smile, not against it.

The best is that he's actually British because accents make everything better. Another shot of Sam after the jump...

Nashville Premier

Did y'all catch the premier of ABC's new nighttime soap, Nashville?

Believe the hype. This show is going to be goooood. All hail the alluring, enticing, and promising return of the night time soap!

Connie Britton plays Rayna Jaymes, a country music sweetheart of yester-year whose record and ticket sales aren't what they used to be. Faced with label pressure to "co-headline" with the new, young, cross-over success,  Juliette Barnes (Panettiere), Jaymes decides to walk away from the label she feels she helped build.

Beneath her pride, Rayna is a mother providing for her family.
