Musical drama-oriented watches always have a feel-good factor about them, be it the 'The Greatest Showman' or 'High School Musical' movie franchise. In total honesty, there are not many TV shows which are musical drama-oriented, and the ones that stand out are shows like 'Glee', and 'Hannah Montana' the Disney TV show featuring Miley Cyrus. However, Fox has come out with a new TV series which is a musical drama, 'Monarch'. After many complications, the series went through during the making and the post-production period, it is finally all set to premiere.

The synopsis of the series reads, "Reigning King of Country Music Albie Roman, along with his insanely talented, and tough as nails, his wife, Queen of Country Music Dottie Cantrell Roman, have created a country music dynasty, but even though the Roman name is synonymous with authenticity, the very foundation of their success is a lie. When their reign as country royalty is put in jeopardy, heir to the crown Nicolette 'Nicky' Roman will stop at nothing to protect her family's legacy, while ensuring her own quest for stardom, alongside her brother Luke and sister Gigi."

Anna Friel, Josh Sasse, Beth Ditto, Meagan Holder, Inigo Pascual, Martha Higareda, and Emma Milani also star. It apparently got postponed due to Covid-related production delays. However, fret not as it is here. 

When will 'Monarch' Season 1 Episode 1 release?

The multi generational musical drama is all set for its premiere on September 11, 2022, at 8/7c on FOX. You may even stream the series on Hulu.

What to expect from 'Monarch' Season 1 Episode 1?

'Monarch' is a Texas-sized, multi-generational musical drama about America’s leading family of country music. In 'Monarch', the Romans are headed by the insanely talented, but tough-as-nails Queen of Country Music Dottie Cantrell Roman (Academy Award winner Susan Sarandon, 'Feud', 'Thelma & Louise') and her beloved husband, “Texas Truthteller” Albie Roman (multi-Platinum country music star and three-time Academy of Country Music (ACM) Award winner Trace Adkins, 'Old Henry').

Dottie and Albie have created a country music dynasty. But even though the Roman name is synonymous with authenticity, the very foundation of their success is a lie. And when their reign as country royalty is put in jeopardy, heir to the crown Nicolette "Nicky" Roman (Golden Globe nominee Anna Friel, 'Pushing Daisies') will stop at nothing to protect her family's legacy, while ensuring her own quest for stardom. 

The stellar cast and the storyline seem quite intriguing for a musical drama. Most of all the focus on female leads is refreshing and stands to be a pivotal part of the series. 

'Monarch' is set for its premiere on September 11, 2022, at 8/7c on Fox.
