Porter, 27, now encourages people to watch episodes at nbc.com or itunes, tune in to summer reruns (starting May 27) or check out the Season 1 DVD (due in late summer). "Anyone who didn't watch because they were scared they couldn't catch up, there are now so many ways." Minka Kelly, whose character, Lyla, is at the center of a love triangle, is proud of Season 1. "But we have so much more to do." Peter Berg, who created the 2004 film on which the series was based and who serves as an executive producer, wants a new time slot for the show, which NBC tried at different times. "It really comes down to that," Berg says. "After 'Heroes' (on Mondays) would be good. Or Sundays at 9 p.m." According to the network, the show will air at 10 p.m. Fridays this fall. Executive producer Jason Katims says he wrote the season finale with a second year in mind. The team won the state championship, and Coach Taylor (Chandler) accepted a new coaching gig at Texas Methodist University. The fall story line will advance several months to late summer, with Coach Taylor coaching at that university, while his wife, Tami, and their daughter, Julie, remain in their small town. Tami (Connie Britton), who learned she was pregnant at season's end, will be close to giving birth. Britton, 39, is looking forward to having the baby next season and likely (says Katims) tackling the topic of postpartum depression. As for other possible stories, the cast is intrigued by Julie's sex life. Says Zach Gilford, 25, who plays boyfriend Matt: "I think she should lose her virginity to someone else." Aimee Teegarden, who plays the teen, shyly asks, "Why does Julie have to lose her virginity at all?" Chandler, sounding like Teegarden's real-life dad, wants nothing to do with the topic. "I don't want to even think about my daughter losing her virginity," says Chandler, teasing Gilford: "But if it's not to Matt, that's a benefit." |

The betting is that Friday Night Lights will be shut out. It's too fresh, too unique -- and too new -- to be spotted by Emmy voters accustomed to filling in their ballots by rote. The occasionally poignant, often profound ensemble drama about high-schoolers coming of age in the American heartland was the longest of long shots from its inception. It fought off early rumours of cancellation and eked out a last-minute renewal for a second season, despite winning the coveted Peabody Award and being compared by some to the great family dramas of the past, My So-Called Life and I'll Fly Away. Email to a friend Printer friendly Font: ****When the startlingly young supporting cast appeared alongside series leads Kyle Chandler and Connie Britton yesterday at the summer meeting of the Television Critics Association, there was a palpable charge of electricity in the room. Aimee Teegarden, who plays Chandler's daughter, Julie Taylor, in the series, is just 17. Vancouver's Taylor Kitsch, who plays bad boy Tim Riggins, is the elder statesmen of the group at 26. They blinked into a sea of lights and then the questions came, one after another, like a series of short, sharp passes up the middle. Chandler and Britton fielded most of the questions, but the younger players in the ensemble intercepted their share of verbal passes along the way. Zach Gilford, who plays reluctant quarterback Matt Saracen, said there is no typical fan of the show. "It's not only once they watch it that they like it," Scott Porter chimed in. "It's that once they watch it, they get their family to watch it, they get their friends to watch it." Porter plays a former star quarterback who has been crippled for life by a game injury. Kitsch was born in Kelowna, B.C. As a struggling actor living and working in Vancouver, he wasn't certain he would get the part of the team rebel, but once he landed it, he knew he could nail it. He had faith that Friday Night Lights would make it. "I wasn't working and thinking, 'This is going to be my last scene on Friday Night Lights'," Kitsch said. "I don't know, you just have that confidence that you're working on something special. Everyone is on the same page in making the season better and greater, and giving it that extra. You just have that confidence. You really do feel that it's going to get even better and greater. We still have so much to prove, and that's just going to fuel the fire for us." The producers of Friday Night Lights learn today whether their program has been nominated for any Emmy Awards. More importantly, they know it will be back this fall -- and on Friday nights. Friday Night Lights is being repeated Wednesdays on Global. Nominations for the Emmy Awards will be revealed live today on Canada AM and other morning programs.
