Friday Night Lights

[abomb]

A 2007-08 renewal is still unclear.

It looks like FNL recently won a Peabody Award.

"Entertainment series selected included NBC`s "Friday Night Lights," a richly textured serial in which a football-obsessed, Texas town becomes a microcosm of America, and "Brotherhood," Showtime`s riveting drama about two Irish-American brothers in Providence, R.I., and their morally comprised pursuits of the American dream. Peabodys also went to ABC`s "Ugly Betty," a telenovela makeover that explores clashing concepts of beauty, class, race and footwear with intelligence, warmth and wit; NBC`s "The Office," a British comedy of workplace manners that has been transferred with pitch-perfect brilliance to Scranton, Pennsylvania, USA; and "Scrubs," a unstintingly creative, sixth-season NBC comedy that never loses its respect for humanity despite a narrative style akin to Looney Tunes."

The attempted rape.

I love this show...great finale...again, I am soooooo Coach T.

 

[Mike Olbinski]

Season finale was just flat out awesome.

I love all these characters...Landry and Matt are so funny together...but the rest of the cast and the writing is just flawless.

I hope it gets renewed for a whole season.

Thats good news.

So how is the whole Coach Taylor to college thing going to play out? Who graduated? Etc.

This is such a great show.

 

[D-Dogg]

Sweet, none of this half-season bullcrap.

Very nice.

This is just great news. I thought for sure it was going to get replaced by another stupid reality game show like "what's in my lunchbox?" Anybody else thinking that the Journeyman sounds a lot like Quantum Leap?

Friday night? Why not put it out of its misery now?

Friday night? Why not put it out of its misery now?

Because it was one of the best shows on TV last season? Had some of the best characters and writing of any show on TV in years.

I think he meant Friday nights = death to a TV show.

Ah I see...stupid me.

Friday nights are perfect for me though, then I don't have to watch replays on the internet. Its one of the 3 nights a week I am not at work, but I can see where problems can come.

Some shows last a long while on Fridays.

Yeah, like Full House and Family Matters...

Homicide Life on the Streets was a Friday night staple for a long while. It was my favorite show on TV when it was originally aired.

it does seem to be a kind of kiss of death for the show, though. putting a show about people who are obsessed with high school's friday night football games on a friday night seems to be cutting out a key demographic.

 

[DiamondBacks5117]

This is one of my favorite shows to. Love this show! does anyone no when the new season is starting? I really hope they keep this show going awesome show!

Rosie O'Donnell may be joining the show. Seriously. I wonder if she will play a nose tackle.

Kill me now.
