Clear eyes, full hearts, can’t lose.
While all eyes were on the Super Bowl last night, football favourite teen drama Friday Night Lights announced a reunion.
According to Entertainment Weekly, the Friday Night Lights reunion comes 10 years after the show’s NBC premiere (and five years after the acclaimed drama ended) and includes a “Panther Field” meet up with a pep rally, live music, tailgating activities, and photo ops. Participants will be announced at a later date.
Fans hoped the reunion would mean a movie but writers aren’t enthused by the idea.
Conni Britton, who plays Tami Taylor in the series, seems enthusiastic about reuniting with the old Dillon High gang. Last year she delighted in the prospect of a reunion. “Listen, I love that world. I love those characters. I love those actors” she said.
The reunion will take place at the ATX Television Festival, June 9-12 in Austin, TX. Texas Forever.
