The network is reportedly having serious conversations with the CW, Comcast Entertainment Networks (E!/G4), TNT, and DirecTV about a plan to carve out multiple broadcast windows for the show.

Last night’s episode of Friday Night Lights caps an inferior and incomplete (perhaps forever) second season in which more and more unlikely circumstances drove what had been a nuanced and tender look at small-town life farther into the arms of soapy improbabilities. Starting with Landry and Tyra’s misadventures in murder and extending to Riggins’ missteps [...]

I am apparently extra-susceptible to being emotionally bludgeoned by well-placed music in my TV.

Maybe she’s right, [...]

I’m not sure how I feel about Seth Green’s neck exploding. (If you haven’t been keeping up with Grey’s Anatomy, I can hardly blame you, but just to catch you up: Seth Green’s neck exploded at the end of the last episode. Tune in tonight to see if that kills him. I’m going with [...]
