I wasn’t very taken with Friday Night Lights during the first several episodes; it was good television, but I wondered what everyone was raving about.
But now that I’ve gotten through the season, I have to admit my defeat. I love this show.
It makes me miss high school football so badly. I’m not a sports person, by any stretch of the imagination. I am hopelessly uncoordinated and tiny to boot, so no sport comes easily to me. And I don’t watch any of them either. But there’s nothing in the world like a high school football game in a community that really cares about them. Nothing like spending hours before the game painting shirts and your faces with your friends and then tailgating. Nothing like the build-up to a game with a rival. Nothing like the band and the smell of popcorn and all the people screaming their lungs out. It’s a false feeling of community and union, maybe, but for two hours you really feel like you are absolutely one with the people around you.
Like I said, maybe it’s a shallow, bankrupt American substitute for real community. But that doesn’t mean I don’t miss it. And this show just absolutely takes me back there. Every single episode.
