Clear eyes! Full hearts! Must graduate!
You may be aware that a big part of my thesis revolves around the spectacular Friday Night Lights, which so many of you inexplicably refuse to watch despite my exhortations that it is the most awesomely awesome drama on television since the heyday of the early '90's. This is your loss, people: you are missing out on superb acting, a passionately perfect soundtrack, heart-pounding Hail Marys at least once every three episodes, and Kyle Chandler (who I've been rooting for since the Early Edition days).
Anyway, it's been teetering on the brink on cancellation, which would be a tragedy on several levels -- the most crucial of which being the viability of my thesis. Nothing like staking one's entire graduate education on the Nielsen ratings. Anyway, after spending the weekend up to my elbows in the industrial history of NBC, this made me extremely happy.
Seriously, just watch it. Dad, I'm looking at you.
