Hello there, all you FNL fans!
D.W. Moffett here and guess what? This is my last blog of the season! Can you believe we're already at the end of this journey? Thankfully we're not completely done — as I'm sure you already know, Friday Night Lights has been picked up for two 13-episode seasons, thanks to the partnership of NBC with DirecTV! So I'm very glad to report that my blog won't end on a cliffhanger, and neither will the season.

When I got the script for this week's episode, "Game of the Week," I found out what my character was going to be up to for the final episodes of the season.

Hello there all you FNL fans!!!
As I reviewed the episode slated for this coming Friday ("New York, New York"), I was reminded of a few things.
First of all, I didn't have to do too much on this episode, so that freed me up to finally get a chance to explore Austin a little more.
