Friday Night Lights

Not sure how many of you are still watching this, but FNL is an amazing show. In fact, it's better than the movie. As the inaugural season has played out, the writing has given depth to all characters- in one episode, you'll have an opinion of team booster Buddy Garrity or paralyzed QB Jason Street and in the next, you'll see a different angle which makes them tick. I especially think the coach's wife is an underrated performance by Connie Britton.

The actual football play is minimal (kept to maybe five or ten minutes every two or three episodes), but I like this fact. The story is driven more by plot and character development anyway.

Sadly, it seems no one is watching. This is a program that deserves a second season, but I don't see it happening.
