Friday Night Lights S&S #21: B/C we're looking forward to Eric molding the Lions

Friday Night Lights
Spoilers and Speculation #21




+ Season 4 Official Press Release
IT’S EAST VS. WEST, LIONS VS. PANTHERS WHEN FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS RETURNS FOR SEASON FOUR OCTOBER 28th ONLY ON DIRECTV’S THE 101 NETWORK

The Critically Acclaimed Drama Will Air Commercial-free Every Wednesday at 9 p.m.

Viewers will meet the East Dillon Lions when the fourth season of the critically acclaimed and Emmy-winning drama series Friday Night Lights premieres October 28 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on DIRECTV’s The 101 Network. Executive Producer Peter Berg (“Hancock”) will direct the season premiere, returning to the series as director for the first time since directing the show’s pilot in 2006. Four new additions to the cast, as well as the returning characters, will be central to the fourth and fifth seasons of the show.

Expanding on the hit feature film and best-selling book “Friday Night Lights,” the award-winning show centers on life in Dillon, Texas, where high school football brings the community together — and the drama of small town life threatens to tear it apart. As season four opens, a redistricting plan has left Dillon a town divided. Having been ousted from his role as head coach at Dillon High School, Coach Taylor (Kyle Chandler) finds himself faced with the daunting task of building a football team from scratch as well as motivating and disciplining the unmanageable East Dillon Lions players. Tensions follows Coach Taylor off the field and into the home as he and Tami (Connie Britton), who remains Principal of West Dillon High, find themselves increasingly at odds with one another and the adversarial roles the redistricting has forced upon them. As one of the main proponents of redistricting Dillon, Tami bears the brunt of criticism from very unhappy parents and students who have been zoned out of West Dillon and into less desirable East Dillon.

“This season opener is practically a pilot in itself. It puts Coach Taylor at the center of the action in a new school, with a new team, and many new challenges,” said executive producer Jason Katims. “In addition to the returning cast, we are introducing a host of new characters who will become integral to the fourth and fifth season of the show.”

An integral member of the newly formed East Dillon Lions is Vince (All My Children alum Michael B. Jordan), whose incredible speed positions him as the Lions best, and possibly only, hope despite his undisciplined skills and unpredictable temper. Vince quickly finds himself at odds with the team’s new pretty boy and rising star player Luke (Lipstick Jungle’s Matt Lauria). The running back held great promise playing with the Dillon Panthers, however, due to the redistricting lines he is now forced to play for the East Dillon Lions. Other newcomers include Jess (Jurnee Smollett, The Great Debaters), the daughter of a onetime NFL hopeful, who is an expert in the sport and will prove to be a crucial part of the new East Dillon team; and Becky, played by newcomer Madison Burge. Becky is a fifteen-year-old beauty queen who isn’t afraid to use her looks to get what, and who, she wants and quickly establishes herself at the top of the East Dillon social hierarchy.

The upcoming fourth season will also focus on the fate of several returning characters including last season’s graduates Tim Riggins (Taylor Kitsch), Lyla Garrity (Minka Kelly), and Matt Saracen (Zach Gilford) as well as Julie Taylor (Aimee Teegarden) and Landry Clark (Jesse Plemons), whose lives have also been affected by the town’s redistricting. Additionally, Coach Taylor finds himself further troubled by a new rivalry with his former team, the Dillon Panthers, headed up by his replacement Wade Aikman (Drew Waters) and the man who masterminded his downfall, Joe McCoy (D.W Moffett).

+ New Characters:

Vince: A charming yet dangerous East Dillon junior.
He’s African-American and, when we first meet him,
he’s running from the cops. Look for Coach Taylor to put his
speed to better use as a member of the Lions. Series regular.


Luke: Vince’s classmate and arch nemesis.
He’s Caucasian, cocky, and charming. Reminds some of a
young Paul Newman. Dillon’s new geographical breakdown
has him playing for the Lions, and he’s not happy about it. Series regular.



Jess: The super-energetic daughter of a onetime NFL hopeful,
she knows the game inside and out. When she’s not busy coaching
her younger brothers, this sophomore/junior is getting crushed on by
every guy in Dillon, East and West. Series regular.


Becky: A freshman beauty queen whose family is purebred trailer trash.
Think Blair Waldorf with lousy genes. She finds Riggins in bed
with her mother and reacts by trying to seduce him herself.
My new favorite character is listed as recurring.

I know you did. I guess it has to do with Sally's Tinypic account. It was deleted. I'm sure when she comes online she will send you a new link.


It's creepy though

Question: The season premiere of Friday Night Lights almost had me in tears. Are things going to get better for the East Dillon Lions? —Nena
Ausiello: I’ll say this: The game they were shooting last month when I visited the set was not nearly as lopsided as the massacre you witnessed in the premiere. And it definitely didn’t end in forfeit. You may want to keep a hanky handy though. There’s an episode coming up that will have you crying like a teething baby without a piece of plastic to bite down on. (Hint: Said episode features a funeral.)

Yikes! That picture is creepy

Molly, place replace it with this one.


I bet it will be a sad, sad episode. I don't think FNL dealt before with a death of character, I'm sure they're going to nail it, and it's going to be heartbreaking.

Thanks for the new thread.

Ok so I fully admit I totally cried during the Tim/Coach scene last night. They are so going through similar things right now. Its nice to see them helping each other.


I thought Luke was supposed to be all cocky and Riggins like? To me he is coming across all Jason Street good guy like.

Does anyone have a site I can get last night's episode from? Youtube episodes aren't complete. I must watch. I love this show. And I hate that curly haired brat Tim gives rides, too.

Do we know when Lyla will make an appearance?

I'm Daniela BTW...mostly on the Gossip Girl forums.

Thanks!
