Friday Night Lights: May The Best Man Win
(S02E15) Yeah. So, we can’t really talk about that episode without getting into the opportunity that that was the series finale of Friday Night Lights. No matter what comes of the big meetings that weekend regarding the writer’s strike, there are no guarantees that the show will even get to fi…
Friday Night Lights: Leave No One Behind
that episode left me comparing the show itself to its own fictional Panthers football team. Both had their seasons get off to a rough start, but now everyone seems to be coming together in the hopes of a strong finish. There are still no guarantees for another run at state, or a third season, but …
Friday Night Lights: Humble Pie
(S02E13) hardly ever ample, the thing I found foremost in my intellect after that latest FNL installment was Seinfeld. More specifically, “The Bizarro Jerry.” Not that the FNL writers went all nutty and decided to try their hands at comedy. They did, however, present us with a lot of characters …
Friday Night Lights: Who Do You Think You Are?
It’s an interesting title for what was ultimately a strange episode. The show on the whole continues to improve after what was a weak start to the season, but it’s not without some bumps in the road. We could ask that question of so many of the characters after what we saw in that episode. Lyla, …
Friday Night Lights: Jumping The Gun
(S02E11) that week we had a pretty big episode where various plots are concerned. With Smash picking a college, the Riggins boys being reunited, and some order being restored to the Taylor household, there are a few different ongoing plots getting wrapped up. That came at the expense of some of th…
Stump the King - Kyle Chandler
This week’s question was rather easy.
Judy writes…
“I’m trying to find about a tv show that was in the 1990s that was cancelled. It was about a guy living in the city. He would look at the newspaper. The newspaper told the future. He would see a catastrophe and next save the person. Do you kno…
Friday Night Lights: There Goes The Neighborhood
And we’re back. After a month off for viewers to celebrate the holidays, and for the networks to try and figure out how to fill up the schedule as the strike stretches on, our old pals in Dillon have returned. And things picked up right where they left off. Riggins is still wandering from domesti…
Friday Night Lights: The Confession
(S02E09) “Can I tell you what gets me going? Pee.” - Isabella
A combination of the coming holidays and the writers strike means that “The Confession” is the final we will see of our pals in Dillon until after the new year. Like so many other shows, the break is a disappointment, but that was the …
Friday Night Lights: Seeing Other People
(S05E08) I know a few folks, and I’ve read comments from a number of others here at TV Squad, who refuse to watch the promos for shows that the networks put out. It generally boils down to them being either full of spoilers or totally misleading. whether you are one of those citizens, that episode…
Friday Night Lights: Pantherama!
(S02E07) For episode seven, “Pantherama!” brings us what I would sign an odd and uneven mix of stories. With a host of new and recurring characters (Santiago, Lauren, Noelle, Noah, Jackie, Billy, Mindy) in play, something had to give. That left our old pal Street on the sidelines for that game…
Friday Night Lights: How Did I Get Here
And you may ask yourself - Well… How did I get here?
It’s a great title for that episode as we find a lot of our pals in Dillon questioning, being questioned about, or owning up to the situation they are currently in. That doesn’t form for huge plot points that you can point to and say, “Look at…
Friday Night Lights: Let’s Get It On
“Lance!”
Week five of season two brings us another packed episode. Eric is getting settled back into his role as the Panther’s coach, and being with his family. Big changes are in the air for Landry on, and off, the football field. A more assertive Matt is coming to some realizations about Julie…
Friday Night Lights: Backfire
(S03E04) “The Eagle has landed. It’s a done deal.” - Buddy Garrity
Another Friday night spent with NBC, and that one came across as a little bit strange. Not naughty strange, or good heavens, what now strange. Just that the story here caught me a little off guard. It’s a little early in the seaso…
Friday Night Lights: Are You Ready For Friday Night?
“What whether I told you I could construct him go absent and you could have your job back?” - Buddy Garrity
That line was the big feature in the promotion that week, and it certainly means a lot moving forward, but that was just a tiny part of what was a jam packed episode three. Really, someti…
Friday Night Lights: final Days Of Summer (season premiere)
And we’re back for another season with the Dillon Panthers. You have to think that there is some pressure on the folks behind the show as they kick off that new year. The renewal was great and all, but I suspect it came with some helpful suggestions as to the kind of numbers the network is loo…
Friday Night Lights season two — An early look - VIDEO
Last week was certainly the biggie for the kickoff to the new season, but that week isn’t too shabby either. In fact, that week brings us the premiere of my most eagerly anticipated returning show, Friday Night Lights. Honestly, there is a part of me that is still a little surprised that we are go…
Jason Katims added to Bionic Woman team
NBC has brought in Friday Night Lights executive producer Jason Katims to refer on Bionic Woman, after Glen Morgan left by those curious ‘creative differences.’ It’s certainly not a new story, a producer getting an additional iron in the fire even though they have a show already on the schedule….
Giveaway Monday: Friday Night Lights season one!
It’s Monday again, which means it’s instance for us to give absent some stuff again. One of today’s giveaways is for three copies of Friday Night Lights season one on DVD, which will be in stores August 28. All you’ve got to do is submit a comment below before 5PM Eastern, August 31, and menti…
NBC hosting “sneak peek” parties for Friday Night Lights
We like to complain when networks don’t give series a fair chance, so it’s nice to see NBC getting behind the new season of Friday Night Lights with such enthusiasm. Teaming with HouseParty.com, the network is sending out party kits to 1,000 Friday Night Lights fans, including an advance copy …
