Explosions in the Sky, the band who's songs are featured quite often on Friday Night Lights, apparently have NEVER watched the show! In a recent Spinner.com article, the band talks about their busy schedule while also admitting they have never actually watch FNL! Well, their music sets the mood in every episode. I just hope it continues to be used... even though they're totally missing out!

It's official, 26 more episodes of Friday Night Lights! Once again the episodes will appear on Direct TV in the fall and rerun on NBC in the Winter/Spring. [nytimes]

There are rumors that FNL could be picked up for two more seasons. The success of airing FNL on Direct TV last fall provided a much needed "third quarter" comeback. The deal between Direct TV and NBC would not only include a 4ths season, but a 5th season-- overtime! [source:ew]

FNL's Minka Kelly and Yankee's shortstop Derek Jeter have been spending a lot of time together. The two were most recently spotted at a Texas Longhorn football game. More info to come as the facts become more concrete.

Episode 303, "Hello Good Bye", aired tonight 10/15/08 on Direct TV and it sure was a good one! For a quick recap check the see the Friday Night Lights Episodes section.

My favorite highlights from the episode were Smash getting offered a district manager job, and the mirror image run Saracen made for the Texas State Championship two years ago which this time fell short to the Arnett Mead Tigers. Talk more about this episode in the Friday Night Lights Forums section.

There were also some great quotes and music in this episode to help enhance the drama. The final song was "Bixby Canyon Bridge" by Death Cab for Cutie. If you loved the song and are not familiar with Death Cab you should check them out, they have a lot of hits and tend to be popular amongst college students.

Attention FNL fans! Many of you may know about or possibly have seen the Emmy Award Winning Drama "Mad Men" on AMC. I find this show amazing, right up there with Friday Night Lights.
