灵书妙探第四季

　　Lifetime已续订《蛇蝎女佣》第四季。

　　这是一部以家庭、爱情、事业、政治和性爱为主题的「黄金时段肥皂剧」，故事发生在田纳西州首府纳什维尔－－一座因为音乐产业和乡村音乐名人堂而闻名的城市。该剧的主人公是一群音乐人，其中有的正处于事业的巅峰，有的是冉冉升起的新星，有的则在走下坡路。故事的主人公是40多岁的纳什维尔歌手Rayna James（Connie Britton）。她曾是一位超级巨星，但随着年华老去，她发现自己的吸引力正直线下降，唱片销量也越来越糟糕。她所在的唱片公司要求她与少女歌手Juliette Barnes（Hayden Panettiere）合作演出，否则将失去巡回演出、举办个人演唱会的资格，而且唱片公司也不再宣传她的唱片。迫于压力，Juliette很不情愿地答应了。Clare Bowen在剧中扮演前途无量的歌坛词曲新秀Scarlett；Jonathan Jackson扮演歌坛新秀Avery，性感的坏男孩，很有才气（能够自己写歌）；Powers Boothe扮演Rayna的父亲，一个很有威望的人，控制欲很强，极力反对女儿追求乡村音乐事业；Robert Wisdom扮演纳什维尔市下任市长候选人Coleman Caldwell，一个颇有政治魅力的政客；Eric Close扮演主人公Rayna的丈夫；Charles Esten扮演歌词作家Deacon，是主人公Rayna的旧情人，同时是Rayna所在乐队的主吉他手。

　　Besides a love for hoops, it would seem that Lucas and Nathan are two young men with little in common - except for the dark secret that they share the same father. Arrogant and assured, Nathan is the star of the high school basketball team and hails from the wealthiest family in town. Quiet, brooding and driven, Lucas is a loner, the only child of a single working mom. He's always kept his distance from Nathan. But their lives collide when a twist of fate puts Lucas on Nathan's team. The rumor that's haunted the boys since childhood now becomes more than just whispers as the half-brothers compete not only for control of the court, but also for the heart of Nathan's girlfriend. So unfolds a deep and bitter conflict that's been years in the making; one that will play itself out in their homes, their hearts and at school as they struggle to come to terms with who they really are - and the fact that they may have more in common than they ever imagined
