Monarch is another one and done series. Meaning this week its Monarch and Stargirl all ending on network TV for good. Are TV dramas in the USA heading down the same path as the Australian drama market? More cheap reality crap for America like here in Australia???
The main problem with the series was Susan Sarandon stars as Dottie Cantrell, but only in episode one. Spoiler alert, Dottie goes bye-bye in episode one. However my favourite was and generally is when they are in a series, Beth Ditto.
Alongside Sarandon & Ditto, Trace Adkins, Anna Friel, Martha Higareda, IƱigo Pascual + Joshua Sasse star in the former Fox series. Streaming in Australia through on Paramount+.
So what's it all about you ask? Dottie and Albie Roman lead a country music dynasty at the center of a multigenerational family drama. Daughter Nicky Roman does all she can to protect the dynasty's reign in country music while ensuring her own stardom.
With some fun musical acts (all covers, no originals) the series had some fun moments, however after the short lived Queens, Empire and Glee tapping out, is there still room for musical dramas on network TV?
Well that is another series I don't need to worry about for the 2023-2024 series. Tomorrow I will take a look at the final ever Stargirl episode too. Until then, sleep tight. BYE!
