angelranger Incredible cast, acting and storylines. An all time favourite

devsanjosecity I started to watch the show on Netflix, the month before it was going to be taken off, to see how middle America is represented and American football(I don't know much about football). I watched the whole show in a month, amazing characters and a must watch show. Doesn't matter if you do not know football or much about USA, the humanity in the show is a treat to watch. Hope this show gets popular internationally as it transcends genres and touches a lot of topics such as race, abortion etc. in a sensitive and intelligent fashion.

Tim Pfeifer Friday Night Lights is a great show. The show is realistic and exciting, and it will have you itching to watch the next episode. The show gives you a look at the magnitude of high school football in a small Texas town. As the name suggests, the show is centered around football, and each episode builds up to the weekly Friday night game. While watching the action, you'll find yourself cheering as if you were one of the thousands of spectators sitting it the stadium. Although the show is based on football, Friday Night Lights is deeper than just a sport. The show highlights relationships and community and how football affects them. Relationships of all kinds are examined in the show, and each goes through it's highs and lows, just like in real life. The show depicts economic, racial, and social issues in the small town in West Texas. The characters are developed to the point where you can relate to each one in a different way. Everyone would enjoy watching this show for different reasons. Whether it be the football, the drama, or the characters, everyone can relate to it. I suggest Friday Night Lights to anyone who is looking for a solid show.

Regg Mac This is a show that is not only about football, but it is about the struggles of youth, family, relationships, and faith in a small town of Texas where few ever really make it out. When I look for a film, TV show, or book Im looking for something that is going to change my life. Its been a few years since that has happened but I can finally say I have found something that has done that again. Powerful stories, awkward at times but incredible at times acting, and powerful yet entertaining lessons. Strongest performances by Kyle Chandler, Taylor Kitsch, Scott Porter, and Brad Leland. Jesse Plemons, Connie Britton, Adrianne Palicki, Louanne Stephens, Minka Kelly and Derek Phillips round out the show nicely. But it is not just what we see but it is the music we hear, the things we assume about each situation, and the little prayers we pray throughout each episode for our characters that truly makes this show one of the ALL-TIME GREATS...I would have liked to see the 5th season tie-in the whole show a little bit better. What happened to all the people we fell in love with in the first 2 seasons? I wish that would have shaped out a little better.But still one of the most touching shows I've ever seen."Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose."
