First time seeing this and man :to: :wow:

One of the best episodes of TV I've ever seen and Zach Gilford put on one of the best performances if ever seen. It broke me and I cried like no movie or show has done to me before. I love this show.


Zach Gilford is great in it tho I wonder why he not in more stuff.

But yeah episode is :to: :sadbron: :sadcam: the scene at the dinner table and when he sees inside the casket.

i swear nielsen must be using some outdated tracking methods because everyone online i come across on forums likes this show and it didn't do good numbers. even foreigners on arsenal forums i frequent like this show.

Shows how great the show is.

Being from London, I have no real interest in American Football, but damn FNL is so much more than just football.

Its in my top 3 shows of all time, never wanted it to end.

The lumps I used to get in my throat
:mjcry:

Even the shytty season 2 during the writers strike wasnt as bad as other shows during that period.

The stories

The characters and the chemistry between them
:wow:

Coach and Tami, damn they were like a real life couple, I am very sure they added a lot of ad-libs to their dialogue, it just seemed so real
:wow:

And then the girls
:takedat:

Lyla was always my fave

I think the reason FNL never did numbers is because most people probably assumed it was some cheesy high school football show, when in reality the actual football part of the show was almost an afterthought.

After it ended, Grantland did a piece where they interviewed everyone involved with the show and how it almost got canceled several times. Kind of a long read, but well worth it...

Then when Kitsch was on True Detective my boy was like " i only watch that cause of Tim Riggins" he put me onto it and binged this shyt out of it this fall....prob a top 5 tv show for me...also me not knowing Mike B was in it till that season 4 premier had me marking out.
