'Friday Night Lights' is back on NBC and 'Coach' Drew Waters is scoring mor
2010-05-07 18:47:00 By BOB ANDELMAN NBC?s ?Friday Night Lights? exists in one of network TV?s most rarified niches. It?s one of those shows that, if seen strictly by the numbers, should long be a memory. But tomorrow night, May 7, 2010, it?ll be back on the Peacock for its season four premiere at 8 p.m. There aren?t many times that NBC has guessed right on quality programming in recent years. This is the network that renewed the hardcore cop show ?Southland? for a second season then canceled it without airing a single episode of that order. And you know which company yanked the ?Tonight Show? away from Conan O?Brien and gave it back to the shark-jumping Jay Leno. But in the case of ?Lights,? NBC guessed right. It took on a partner, DirecTV, went for a shorter season commitment more in tune with a cable drama such as ?Mad Men? or ?Rescue Me,? and gave fresh life to a fan favorite. That, and it?s a show centered around high school football. In Texas. Hard to go wrong there. All of that makes m...

What the FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS Renewal Means for the Future of Television
2009-03-31 05:09:00 Score one for fans of quality television everywhere. According to Variety, DirecTV and NBC have reached an agreement that will see FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS stick around for not just one but two more 13-episode seasons of Dillon Panther football. Better still, the continuation of this cross-platform deal between the network and the cable provider could, if we’re lucky, serve as a blueprint for similar deals in the future. Because the undeniable facts of modern television life are these: The audience is, for a multitude of reasons, shrinking, while costs are rising and the economy is sinking. And while those factors already have contributed to the loss of such quality shows as SWINGTOWN and PUSHING DAISIES, deals such as the one which will keep FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS on the air might well become the norm and offer such currently-struggling shows as DOLLHOUSE or KINGS a new life. A pipe dream? Perhaps. But who’d have thought FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS would make it to season four?

Because “Chills” is exactly what we get while watching one of the finest dramas television has to offer.

TCA 2008: FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS
2008-07-20 17:16:00 By: Kevin Kelly, Special TCA Correspondent Experimentation. It’s the buzz word of this year’s Television Critics Press Tour. Will SCRUBS jumping ship from NBC to ABC pay off? Will the CW really shake things up by shifting the start of their Fall season to mid-summer next season? And will satellite provider DirecTV’s gamble to pick up the critically acclaimed yet ratings anemic football series [that’s not really about football!] be hailed as a brilliant programming move or, a grand experiment that was ahead of its time? Place your bets. Because the only thing we know for sure is what one audience member inappropriately [yet accurately!] yelled out at this morning’s FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS TCA Panel. “FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS will quickly become the most downloaded show on television!” Which in case you’re wondering, star Zach Gilford full endorses, stating, “Well, if you’re a loyal fan I say you download it, and then out of good con...

The deets: DirecTV will get to run with 13 new episodes beginning on Oct. 1, with NBC picking up the ball with repeats in February.

The pickup became official Wednesday, but there's a catch.NBC has entered a partnership with DirecTV whereby the satellite-TV service will get first crack at the new season. Episodes will air on DirecTV's original programming channel, The 101, starting in October, but they won't make it to NBC until early 2009. It also won't stream on NBC.com or Hulu until then.Season three will run for 13 episodes, meaning some unresolved threads from the show's strike-abbreviated second year could be left dangling.Given that the show averaged only 6.2 million viewers a w...

I'm told that Jeff Zucker, Marc Graboff and Ben Silverman had been searching for a way to renew the critically acclaimed but low-rated Friday Night Lights for a 3rd season in a way that would still make financial sense. The answer came in a deal with DirecTV, now owned by John Malone's Liberty Media. Clearly Malone is looking to distinguish DirecTV from its rivals on a content as well as price basis. "It's an innovative deal where NBC found a partner who will share costs and exhibition windows," an insider explained to me. So both NBC and DirecTV will be airing Friday Night Lights across multipurpose platforms.I'm a big fan of the hour-long high school football drama (which is really about horny teens and their hornswoggled parents) so I say hooray.
