Friday Night Lights OT Thread #10: Because Texas Forever
 

The all encompassing Friday Night Lights thread to discuss any and all actors from the show and just the show in general because even though it's been 10-years since it premiered it remains one of the most beloved shows out there. And even we sometimes have to admit the show was about more than just Tim Riggins.

From the previous thread:

Tftnt!

MBJ and maybe Jesse will be at the Critics Choice Awards tonight, Black Panther and Game Night are both up for awards.

I will be watching. Rami and Timmy both nominated. Not sure if Rami will be there. I'm sure he will be but rumor is that he's back in London.

I'm hoping Rachel goes, I still have a soft spot for her, both she and Jason are nominated for Game Night too.

I'm not sure I'll be watching but I'm sure I'll see the results on twitter.

Connie heading to the Critics Choice.

Did our people win?

I honestly don't know the complete list of winners. Connie didn't win, Game Night didn't win, Crazy Rich Asians actually won. There were a few ties, which was actually a nice surprise. It shakes things up a bit.

My people did not win... damn Mahershala Ali and Christian Bale. Actually, this was like first award that Rami DID NOT win. I was surprised. But I think Christian has been in a separate category each time. Oscars will be interesting.

Scott’s been cast in the new Charmed reboot.

Good for him! I know he's been getting into the gaming industry, doing voice over and appearances, but I'm sure it's nice to be back on a TV show.

He did that crime show not too long ago.

Scorpion, I had to look it up, that was in 2016.

It looks like Pete has been filming, what I think is a Superbowl commercial, the past few days. He posted a picture that Taylor liked yesterday with NFL hall of famers. Today Minka is there and is posting from the set.

This wasn't posted by Minka but someone on set.

Minka's in the commercial?

I don't know if she's in the commercial or if she's just hanging out on set.

Maybe it has some FNL theme...

It's for the NFL 100 kickoff, whatever the heck that is.

Poor Timmy can't catch a break. I don't know who was nominated but I still stay Adam Driver is really getting screwed this season. And Richard E. Grant.

I'm wondering if the Golden Globes backlash will hurt Rami's chances for the Oscar. I hope not. He deserves it way more than Christian (in my opinion, after only being able to endure 52 minutes of Vice).

I watched the Busy Tonight episode with Connie. Apparently Busy and Connie worked together on a TV show a long time ago and have been friends ever since. Who knew?

Richard E. Grant has gotten some of the awards, Timmy's scooped a few... Adam's got 0. I haven't seen the movie but I heard he is excellent.

Not one critic has said anything negative about Rami's performance so hopefully he will win. I still haven't heard any Golden Globes backlash.. lol, and please don't fill me in. I know everyone was shocked that it won best movie. Get over it people. The foreign press loved it. The HOLLYWOOD foreign press that is, whatever the heck that means. And I think it's terrible that Brian Singer can ruin the hard work of 1,000 other people because he's a d.bag. Honestly, it's just such an honor to be nominated

Lornette, you were right. Season 2 of Mr. Robot is w.e.i.r.d. [SPOILER} I literally just watched him be force fed wet cement, puke it up, pick undigested Addarall out of it, and eat it. My life will never be the same. BUt DAMN! if Rami didn't commit to that scene. I watch an episode, listen to several podcasts and then rewatch it. Then it makes sense. lol Surface level, it weird but entertaining, but after you get deeper into the meaning of everything, it's ****ing genius. Rami has played a lot of bizarre characters. I think it's because he looks so unique. Did you all know he has an identical twin?

I've seen a photo of him and his twin. Maybe when Rami was on Kimmel?

I don't have enough patience for Mr. Robot to rewatch it. Though Rami IS just so good in that role! Is this upcoming season its last? I'll probably tune in to the finale.

I was listening to an interview with a hair colorist to the stars on Sirius/XM recently. I tuned in mid-interview, but ended up leaving it there because I was driving and didn't want to be distracted. The interviewer (this was EW Radio) asked him about how he got his start and who were some of the first celeb clients. He answers -- get this -- Minka Kelly for FNL. It sounded like he meant he colored her hair for the show, not personally. I could've misinterpreted that part, though. Anyway, I know this isn't a very interesting story, and I can't even recall his name now. :ol: I just thought it was a cute FNL-related moment. For a show that struggled its entire existence and has been off the air so long, it still finds its way into pop culture to this day.

FNL shall live forever!

I had no idea they were even dating! But Adrianne and her Orville co-star are engaged. He'll always be Morris from ER to me.

How cute are they?

Congrats to them!

I knew Rami had a twin. He talked about him on Graham Norton. . . Something about how they swapped places at uni or something.

I don't know who the guy is, but congratulations to Adrianne.
