Nothing could please me more…well, almost nothing, if we could get at least 2 more seasons out of Friday Night Lights.  This show is so solid.  It’s the real life (without being reality TV) kind of show that doesn’t go overboard.  I love it.

NBC is engaged in active talks with DirecTV to extend their unique shared-window experiment with Friday Night Lights. But there’s a catch — and it’s a good one. According to an insider close to the negotiations, DTV and NBC might only seal the deal if they can get – holy Connie Britton Taylor! — a two-season pickup.

Though a spokesperson for NBC Universal declined to comment, a Peacock insider acknowledges that the studio is “actively looking at ways to keep FNL going.” Another NBC source adds, “We’re very optimistic a deal will be worked out.”

The one possible complication? The show’s behind-the-scenes quarterback, Jason Katims, is attached to NBC’s buzzy Parenthood pilot. If it’s picked up, he would either do double duty or be forced to make a choice. Similarly, the show’s go-to director, Jeffrey Reiner, is helming NBC’s Trauma pilot.

I think that the show’s cast is strong enough to go on without them and I say go for it!!

You don’t have to be a football fan to enjoy Friday Night Lights.  Watch it!
