Report: Kyle Chandler and Connie Britton finally gets noticed with their acting talent! FNL stars gets Emmy nominations!

Congrat s to Kyle and Connie, it’s about time too! Both have acting talent and they prove it by getting Emmy nominations. “Friday Night Lights” is my favorite show and I saw the acting talent in both Kyle and Connie, from the very beggining.

See the Emmy nominations here:

Only problem is though, I don’t think Kyle is gonna win. Since Michael C. Hall is nominated for “Dexter” along with him, Michael would get it instead.

Connie might have a good chance in winning.

5 Reasons to like “Friday Night Lights”…

So “Friday Night Lights” is finally back. The premiere of Season 4 aired last Friday over the weekend and I watched it very good episode. Why do I love the show so much? Well there are 5 reasons….

  1. Kyle Chandler is a great actor. Kyle Chandler who plays Coach Eric Taylor can be very entertaining ’cause he has a really short fuse and has a temper tantrum. The reason he acts this way on the show ’cause it’s his way of trying to get the players on the team more motivated in football, plus all Eric cares about is his team winning games like most sports coaches do. So he uses his temper to get players all fired up and ready for the game. This is an entertaining character and it’s one reason why I watch it. Whenever “Friday Night Lights” gets canned for good in the future, I have a feeling that Kyle Chandler will become a huge movie star in the future. He already had a few pretty big roles in Hollywood movies such as Peter Jackson’s “King Kong” remake and he had a role in, “The Day The Earth Stood Still” remake as well.
  2. Taylor Kitsch as Tim Riggins. He’s another entertaining character of the series. Taylor Kitsch is already a Hollywood actor before this show. Tim Riggins is a flaky kind of character who is an alcoholic and plays a loser type of character on the show. This is one reason that makes the show good.
  3. Minka Kelly as Lyla Garrity. Another reason to like this show is the gorgeous and sexy, Minka Kelly. Damn, she’s one fine looking chick.
  4. Good writing. The scripts of the episodes is what keeps the show going and what keeps people watching. The show has really good writing. Most shows on TV has bad writing, but “FNL”, the writing almost seems like a movie script, rather than a TV show.
  5. It feels like old school primetime drama. A show like this can make you feel like watching “The Wonder Years” or “Doogie Howser”. It almost feels like the 80’s of drama TV all over again. “FNL” is the real deal.

Glad the show is finally back.

Report: “Friday Night Lights” Season 4 to start airing April 30th…

Maybe Conan O’ Brien leaving NBC officially and Jay Leno getting his “Tonight Show” back was a good thing after all. Simply because it left room for “Friday Night Lights – Season 4” to get it’s 8:00 clock slot in the schedule which will start airing April 30th. Can’t wait. I don’t watch too many drama shows on TV. “FNL” is one show that I love and have been following the series since it first made it’s debut on TV. This is really good news and looking forward to seeing Season 4! YES!

Report: Friday Night Lights to get a season 4? Major announcement about that today!!!

Direct TV and NBC are in negotiations to reveal their decision on the show’s fate publicily sometime today. “Friday Night Lights”, was almost in danger of not renewing since the show came back for a Season 3 this year. The two companies would not reveal details yet until the annoucement is made today, sometime this afternoon or later this evening.

Don’t fret “FNL”  fanatics. Variety says the news of the show would be good, that fanatics like myself would be happy about. So it is possible that the show will have a two season 26 episode of the show’s future.

As some of you may know, I’m a huge fan of this show. It’s a wonderful show, I love it so much. It would be sad if the show only lasted a couple of seasons, I really hope this show goes on for a long time. This year’s season 3 is getting so good, I’m hooked to this show.

I’ll be looking out for the big announcement today, so look out for a breaking news report of the show in my blog.

Report: “Friday Night Light’s” Scott Porter to play the Flash?

Is this the reason why “Friday Night Light’s” star Scott Porter, who plays Jason Street, left the show on NBC? Is it because he wants to go Hollywood and become a big movie star? It looks as though he is trying.

Scott Porter already auditioned for a role as Superman in George Miller’s “Justice League” film which the project is now dead. Now he is rumoured to be one of the top choices to play as the Flash in a live action movie of the DC Comics superhero. I can see why they would want Scott Porter as the Flash. Just look at his picture above. Does his looks smell Superhero all over him? Yeah, the way his face looks, he would look great in a superhero costume.

There are two other “Friday Night Lights” cast members that go back and forth to movies and to that TV show. Taylor Kitsch who plays Tim Riggins plays the main villain in “X-Men Origins: Wolverine”. Kyle Chandler who plays Coach Eric Taylor recently had a role in, “The Day The Earth Stood Still” remake.

It’s great to see Scott pursuing a career in acting of film. Hope a possible film career would happen with Scott and I’m sure he would start getting movie roles soon.

Report: “Friday Night Lights” Season 3 premiere ratings are in and did okay!!!

Friday Night Lights Season 3 premiere did surprisingly well in it’s first episode. It went up a little bit, FNL was up at 4.6 million viewers but dropped down toward the end with 4.1 million viewers. Not so bad at all. Hopefully the ratings will go up a little higher as the Superbowl approaches.

See it here:

http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/b79605_friday_night_lights_stays_in_ratings.html

4.6 for FNL is not that great or excellent but it did okay in the ratings. As long as the ratings stay around there for the rest of the season, there maybe a hopeful Season 4. FNL is my favorite show on TV and it would be sad if it’s gone this soon, so I’m happy the show’s back for now. FNL is the best TV drama show since the “Wonder Years” with Fred Savage.

Friday Night Lights – Season 3 premiere thoughts…

Just got done watching the Friday Night Lights – Season 3 premiere. I’m so happy to see the show back. Just to give a quick brief review ’cause I don’t want to give out any story spoilers.

The show just got even better. 1st episode of Season 3 were better than the first two seasons. Acting of the cast has improved. Yep, the same actors in the same cast is back. Everybody is the same and has the same personalities except the girl who plays Tyra has a new hairdo and she looks a little older. Tim Riggins is still the same drunk who picks up a lot of girls. Coach Eric Taylor is no different either, the same old short tempered coach who does his best by keeping his team mates in good moods so they can win the football games. I’m glad the writers didn’t change the characters.

Hopefully the ratings will be good on the first episode. This weekend, I’ll keep an eye out for a ratings report to see how the first episode did. Hopefully Season 3 will be successful so there can be a Season 4. This show deserves to be on the air for a long time.
