Friday Night Lights is Almost Back. (Kind Of)

Ok, so everyone knows how much I fucking love this show, right? I love it as much as Stein loves men, Trick loves the Pens, and Bones loves beer. That's a lot, especially the Stein loving men. In one week from today FNL will make its triumphant return to television with its long awaited third season. The only problem is I won't be able to watch it since I don't have stupid Direct TV. This is obviously all NBC's fault because if they had put FNL is a good time slot in the first place and had give it a decent amount of advertising, they wouldn't have to worry about low ratings. Jerks. I'll probably just download it as soon as it becomes available.

Recently, a new promo was released by Direct TV and it's super weird. See for yourself.

Yeah, if you hadn't seen the show, you'd probably have no fucking idea whats going on. Also, Gene Wojciechowski did an interview with Zach Gilford, who plays QB1 Matt Saracen. It's definitley worth checking out.

Real FNL Spoilers!

A while back I wrote a post about my favorite drama Friday Night Lights, detailing what was to come in season 3. Well, apparently I was wrong with all my predictions and have found 2 links that discuss what is really going to happen. If you're a fan of the show (which you should be) you'll want to check these out.

Some Notes: I felt kind of cheated that we don't get to see what played out from season 2 due to the writers strike but judging from these articles it looks like we're headed for some major story lines in season 3. It's kind of sad that Smash and Street are leaving. It's also sad that this is the last year for most of the main cast since they are all graduating. I'm glad they are putting more focus on the Matt/Landry relationship though. I'm looking forward to Matt telling Landry he's retarded about 500 more times this year.
