Leann & Eddie Go to The Grand Ole Opry

August 1, 2014 by tamaratattles 12 Comments

Leann and Eddie

Look, thirty minutes is just not long enough for a show about anything anymore. I realize in the olden days we had plenty of 30 minute sitcoms that worked. But back then, the commercial breaks weren’t nearly as long. In the present day, a 30 minute show is about 14 minutes long. It’s just not long enough for a decent story arc. Rant over.

This week our lovely couple goes to Nashville. But first, Leann and Eddie bicker about Leann’s over packing for a two-day trip. Eddie is intimidated by Leann’s father. Leann says she went coon hunting for the first time when she was two. Or four. Or Five. She killed a raccoon with a shotgun.

Oh I remember now. Leann sued her father, who was at the time her manager for mismanaging her finances or something. Leann has a tour bus parked on her dad’s property for her to stay in with Eddie. Leann has to go to an interview so Eddie is left alone with Leann’s father.Leannrimesxfactor

In a talking head, Eddie says that in the south there are two types of respect you can get from a girl’s father. One is for the way you treat his daughter, and the other is cowboy respect. Eddie says he is looking for the cowboy respect. Um, so he has completely ruled out earning the other kind then?  Oh. Okay.

Event number one in the Embarrass Eddie Decathlon, skeet shooting. A ten-year old boy smokes him. Eddie explains to us in a talking head that he co-started in a movie with Chuck Norris. Because, why?

Leann does her interviews and doesn’t get to spend any time with her dad. Later snuggled up on the tour bus Eddie says he had fun with her dad.

Event two in the  Embarrass Eddie Decathlon is roping.  Leann gets it on her first try. Or so editing makes it appear. Eddie held her purse while she did it and then headed off to prepare for her concert.  Event number three in the Embarrass Eddie Decathlon is horseback riding. Eddie feels confident. He has ridden horses in the movies many times. Yet somehow he didn’t know how to make the horse turn until Daddy Rimes told him how.  Eddie falls off the horse and lands on his ass.

Eddie limps into The Grand Ole Opry with Daddy Rimes and the boy. He has to explain he busted his ass riding a horse in a meadow. Daddy Rimes wants Leann to sing Blue but she snappily informs him that she has her own repertoire.  She should sing Blue. She sings Spitfire and the crazy bitch can sing. Leann sang a song for her Daddy. It was really sweet. The Opry just hired another Minnie Pearl when Minnie Pearl died? Thanks just wrong.

The next day, Daddy and Leann reminisced about her childhood. Leann and her Daddy sing  while he plays his guitar. #Allergies  I really liked this episode. Leann and Eddie need to move to Nashville and be normal people.

      ​WOW. That was what made it so much better. I didn’t even notice.

    And she shot the raccoon why? Because it didn’t want to be her boyfriend?

      ​Because she was two and didn’t know any better. That is what she said. I swear. But then she was four or five…so… I dunno.

    I really like this show… they seem to really care.. and whether you like them or not.. his “nut case” ex Brandi.. who I can hardly tolerate listening to her voice.. LOL… has had the time of her life bashing the hell out of both of them on her shows. so i’m glad they have a chance to show us their life. Although I’ve missed 1 episode.. I don’t think they really talk too much about Brandi.. but what they said.. was truth LOL… He’s a really gorgeous man.. !!

    Good recap. I’m actually starting to like this show. I thought last night’s episode was cute. It was a nice break from the cat fights on the housewives shows. And, it reminded me that LeAnn is an amazing singer. I wish she would focus on her singing more. Say what you will, but she does have an amazing voice.

    I wasn’t aware Minnie Pearl was like a Ronald McDonald type persona where you just get a new one! What the hell? What’s next, an animatronic Roy Acuff? Is nothing sacred?

      ​I could not believe what I was seeing. Maybe it’s a hologram like Tupac? It did seem like it was on a projector of some sort.

    Leanne sings with soul. Often on a stretch of freeway I blast Leanne I know I drive better. Perception.
    Poor Brandi, no attention this week.

    This show proves that even if you’ve lived in LA longer than you’ve lived anywhere else, you can still be a country singer. Interesting.

        I would just think living there would put you out of touch with most people that listen to country. But I’m smack dab in the Midwest, so I have no clue what people are like on the coasts
