Surprised there wasn't a thread for this here since i know there's a few fans here. Starting this because i'm watching this with my gf and i know i'll probably want to post about it alot so it makes more sense starting this than constantly posting in the TV Tab. Also @seanc said he'd be interested in my thoughts, he may have been just being nice but i've backed him into a corner now he has to read it haha.
I've watched the first two episodes and am enjoying it, my two posts and profile comments about it so far so i don't have to repeat myself:

Planning on trying Friday Night Lights with my gf soon. She's never seen it before, i tried an episode a few years ago got bored and turned it off. Hopefully i like it more this time and obviously i'll give it a better chance.
Other than Twin Peaks i've not watched any tv in months, haven't even finished The Americans yet.

Watched the first episode of Friday Night Lights. I liked it, think i didn't give it enough of a chance last time. Seems like it's got potential to be something i see through to the end. I could tell what was going to happen from the moment that Street guy was introduced with him being the best prospect in the nation as a commentator put it, although hilariously one of the reasons i was so sure was because for some reason i believed he was Coach Taylors son right up until the end of the episode 
Anyway looking forward to more.

I got an odd vibe from Streets girlfriend in the second episode, as if she was only interested in him because he was the football star, i didn't get that vibe in the first episode as well. It was her talking about the football player who was injured and sat out a year of college, dunno just felt weird. My gf disagrees tho so we'll see soon i guess.
Oh yeah and the new quarterback guys gran was awesome

Chandler was good in the episode, i can tell that even if i fall out with the show i'll like him at least. As i said in the TV Tab:
I swear i felt like a moron, and my gf made me feel like one. I must have misheard something at the start when Taylor and Street were being interviewed, i didn't really pick up on Street's name until i looked it up after. Also after the tackle the commentator says something like "Coach Taylor loves all his boys so this will get to him, but as a parent...". The way he said that i thought he was saying it must be especially awful for Coach since he's not just his coach but his parent. It wasn't until a few minutes later that it dawned on me he was referring to the crying woman who came onto the field who was clearly not Taylors wife. I genuinely said "Oh, he's not the coaches son?", and yeah i got laughed at for the rest of the episode, i'm an idiot 
.
Looking forward to the rest.
