Friday Night Lights

The thing I really love about this show is the wardrobe. It's nice to see what lengths a wardrobe department will take to make sure the situation and people are as real as possible, such as using clothing pieces that the actors have already worn previously in episodes. Also, the acting is fantastic! I mean, the entire point of acting is to be truthful under imaginary circumstances and these actors are wonderful at accomplishing that. It's difficult to watch a show when acting is oh so obvious. I have to say though that I admire the men in this series for capturing the true love of football. I've grown up around football and seeing the same love and dedication to the sport come through in the show (and also the same feeling in the movie) is really a ray of sunshine :) Bravo!

Friday Night Lights is one of all-time favorite shows. It's is so criminally underrated it's ridiculous! It is just an absolute amazing show! The show is based off the book and the film but is so much better than even those two. It takes place in the small Texas town of Dillon, Texas and takes place at one of the best football high schools...the Dillon Panthers. Coach Taylor (Kyle Chandler) leads the team through pressure filled seasons full of expectations and helps his players both on and off the field. He also has to deal with the everyday struggles of his own family. Even though the football story line is great, it is so much more than that. If you read the reviews you'll see 90% of them are 9's & 10's and most have one thing in common and that's that they didn't give it a chance until years after it went off the air. Once you start watching you can't stop.

Probably one of the best all around shows Ive ever watched. I grew up in Dallas so this really brings back some great memories of high school football. This show captures everything Texas and is such a good show. Don't worry It's not just about high school football and it touches on so many subjects I won't try and list them out. One thing is for sure though, I guarantee you will experience every emotion a human being can go through during the course of this series. If high school football is not your thing it won't matter. The writing, the directing, the music and above all the acting, will take you places no other show will take you. Yeah it's that good. Just Give it 3 episodes before you make any decisions. It takes that long to get to know the characters and get familiar with the show. When it's all over and you finish the last episode, you will sit back and say to yourself, "crap that just might be the best series I've ever watched"... You will have Clear Eyes and Full Hearts... watch the show and you will never forget that phrase... Peter Berg well done on this one and last but not least.... Texas Forever...

I know people say this all the time about shows but Friday Night Lights really is one of the most underrated shows in the history of television. It's such a great show and should be talked about even more than it is. It's on just about every "bests shows of all-time" list that you'll find and for good reason. It shows the everyday lives about popular high school athletes and others members of the community in a small Texas town where football is everything. It takes a realistic, gritty look inside their lives. The writing and acting is what makes this show so special. The cast (Kyle Chandler, Taylor Kitsch, Connie Britton, Aimee Teegarden, Minka Kelly, Michael B JordanZach Gilford, Jesse Plemons, Adrianne Palicki, etc) is just about perfect for this show too. This really is a must watch show!

I am from Australia and I could not get enough of this show.
