ABC cancels country music drama ‘Nashville’ after 4 seasons

A day after ABC canceled the show after four seasons, “Nashville” co-producer Lionsgate said Friday that it is shopping the show to other networks and digital services.

While stars Hayden Panettiere has not yet commented on the cancellation, Connie Britton, Charles Esten, Aubrey Peeples, Chris Carmack, and more have tweeted to their fans.

The show’s fourth season finale will now act as its series finale on Wednesday, May 25th.

Creator Julie Plec suggested she’s up for more Containment on Twitter: “Dearest Containment fans, we made 13 wonderful episodes of a powerful story”. You’re going to want to remember that name or start coming up with appropriate hashtags now.
