Texas Forever!
Jul. 17th, 2011 05:22 pmWatched the series finale of Friday Night Lights yesterday. Cried ALL THE TEARS. Am resisting a complete rewatch of the entire series until my final paper is finished.
Quick links: An Oral History of Friday Night Lights
Very much worth reading. Possibly my favorite thing ever:
Peter Berg: I was really worried. Connie and Kyle developed a very flirtatious, precocious relationship right off the bat. And Kyle, of course, is married. They announced they were going to drive to Austin together from L.A. to move out, and I threw myself in front of that bus. I said it was a horrible idea for multiple reasons. They ignored me. Connie dismissively told me she knew what she was doing and she didn't need my advice. I was convinced they would be having some torrid affair by the time they reached Santa Fe and Kyle's marriage would be over by the time they got to Austin. I was wrong about that, thank God.
Alex Blagg (former Bestweekever.tv blogger): I was the managing editor of VH1's Best Week Ever blog. I thought it would be funny to send light bulbs to Ben Silverman [in support of the show], because, theoretically, after a light bulb would go through the mail, you'd basically be sending him broken glass — a symbolic and also vaguely threatening gesture.
Also, another FNL movie in the works? Don't get my hopes up, guys...
I feel like I should do a reaction post, but I'm not sure I'm capable of words, so... I picspammed the bejeezus out of it. :)
( Not in the slightest bit dial-up friendly )
