Friday Night Lights

So I just watched Friday Night Lights and I am seriously wowed and amazed here. Favorite new show of the season that I LOVE and highly recommend to everyone. I've been trying to watch Heroes and Studio 60 but I haven't been able to get past the first 10 minutes but this show hooked me right in. It took me on an emotional rollercoaster ride, from the highest highs to the lowest lows and repeated that cycle repeatedly until the end. It made me cry and cheer deeply and I can't believe that it only took one episode for me to feel that way. I love football and this show is exactly why I love it with the intensity, the stategy, the expectations, the epicness of it all. I knew it was manipulating me during the game and thereafter but I didn't care because it was SO GOOD. No words can really describe how much this Pilot gets to me, but it now owns my heart. Oh and the visuals are also very cool and make me want to vid, always a plus. Just watch it and give it a chance, no matter your feelings on the subject matter.

*watches it over again, waits impatiently for second episode download to finish along with the movie*

More detailed thoughts to follow later once my emotions have settled down a bit more.

There's an article in the paper today about how (1) it's the best new show of the season and (2) it's on the verge of cancellation because everyone thinks it's just a sports show.

Yes I know and the fact that it might get cancelled depresses me. I just hope they give it a chance and people start to watch it more.
