When I tuned into Friday Night Lights, I expected to find another mindless football-jock fest with shallow dramatic plots and shallow subject matter. I could not have been more wrong. Football merely frames what is an epic human drama that is raw, authentic, and shows stories that are vulnerable. The show is taking on the greatest challenge we all face universally: The Drama of Real Life. The show filming on location in Texas deepens the reality of being a fully immersive experience. The series takes you somewhere we all desperately long to be: a place with Clear Eyes, Full Hearts, Can't Lose.
