When word started leaking out that NBC and DirecTV were looking at a two-season pickup for "Friday Night Lights," I expressed my ambivalence about its possible return, if only because I so loved the way this season ends.
Well, that was fun. As the third season of Friday Night Lights nears its end on DirecTV -- and beginning on NBC -- writers and producers certainly aren't making it easy on us. With only two more episodes to go before the waiting begins -- the annual FNL guessing game as to whether or not the series will nab another season -- things are already getting a bit tearful.
Why is it so hard to say good-bye on Friday Night Lights?
Sorry, Friday Night Lights, but Wednesday (Nov. 13) night's episode just wasn't a very good follow-up to one of the season's best hours.
Due to popular demand from at least two readers, it may be time to check in again on the residents of Dillon, the quarterback-swapping Panthers and the rest of the Friday Night Lights gang.
Friday Night Lights is back! Sortta! If you have DirecTV, at least, one of the most adored, least watched shows on television returned on Wednesday (Oct. 1).
Thanks to the writers strike, Friday (Feb. 8) night's episode of Friday Night Lights is very likely to be the drama's season finale. Thanks to ratings that have never equaled its critical acclaim, it may also have been its series finale. It sure didn't feel like either kind of ending.
Hey, did you see that on Friday Night Lights this week? There was almost a football game played. And, what's this? Matt Saracen, too often relegated to sideman status this season, in a central storyline?
One possible upside to Friday Night Lights ending its season in a couple weeks is this: At least we will be spared further silliness from the world of Tim Riggins.
Tonight was Relationship Turning Point Night -- and CW Guest Star Night -- on Friday Night Lights. Some of it -- Coach and Mrs. Coach, as always -- was poignant and beautifully acted, and some of it, well, it went on a little thick.
