The fourth season of “Friday Night Lights” is what [...]

I’ll put a dutiful SPOILER ALERT at the top of every post. So if you can’t wait until next year, when NBC airs these episodes, feel free to come here, read, and...
A new season of "Friday Night Lights" has begun, and, like last year, I'm going to review each episode as it airs on DirecTV, then repost these reviews whenever NBC gets around to showing each episode.

Entering into its fourth season (and second since the NBC/DirecTV deal), Friday Night Lights is a show in transition on numerous levels. The high school football drama returns tonight to DirecTV's 101 Network at 9 p.m. ET (NBC won't air this season until next summer) and for fans of the show, it's an episode they've long been waiting for.
