NBC's "Lights" shining brighter
By Nellie Andreeva Tomorrow at 12:51 am
NBC's "Friday Night Lights" are shining brighter.
A day before the freshman series' season finale, the network on Tuesday ordered six additional scripts of the critically praised but low rated series.
While this is short of the early second-season order NBC recently bestowed on another struggling rookie, the comedy "30 Rock," the order does strengthen "Friday"'s chances for a return next season.
"Friday" is the second NBC series on the bubble to receive a six-script order this week, following a similar pickup for veteran "Medium" Monday.
"Friday" is an adaptation of the 2004 feature about a high school football team. Kyle Chandler leads the ensemble cast of the drama, which recently won a Peabody Award.

I finally started watching this show last Sunday night and I got caught up completely by last night(21 episodes in 9 days if you're counting). It's THAT good that I kept firing off one episode after another.
Good to see the odds of a 2nd season are increasing. It's arguably the finest series on network television. And unlike Grey's Anatomy where I hate nearly every character on the show, I like everyone on Friday Night Lights. And I'll be pissed if we never get to find out what happens to them after tonight's episode.

Last episode of season.

But alas, I didn't think they'd end the season with them winning the title (like the movie) but now I think it's a definite possibility.

They can't win. Why would Coach Taylor have any reason to return?
What I'm curious about is which players are seniors? I think Riggins is, but I'm not sure about the rest. How will they be worked into a potential 2nd season?

I agree - they can't win. It seems pretty obvious.
I think Riggins is a Sr., Smash is a Jr., and Saracen is a Soph.

Riggins could repeat his Sr year.

I liked the caravan with crucifictorious.
I wasn't expecting the win, but I am glad they did.
So, is coach staying, or is Street going to be head coach?
