Scott Porter: TV Guide News

Pilot News: FNL Cutie Tackles New Role, and More | Today's News: Our Take | 3/31/2009
Fresh off his recently wrapped run on NBC/DirecTV's just-renewed Friday Night Lights, Scott Porter has joined the cast of Masterwork, a Fox drama pilot about an FBI agent (Aussie actor Matt Passmore) who tracks down stolen antiquities. (Think Indiana Jones with a badge.)

Friday Night Light's Jason Street Shifts from Wounded Bird to Proud Papa | Today's News: Our Take | 11/11/2008

The first episode we got to know and love the character of Jason Street on Friday Night Lights could have very well been our last. Right after we met the gifted quarterback of the Dillon Panthers, he was struck down by a brutal football game injury. In an instant, the hometown hero became a quadriplegic. But the show took a surprise direction, following Street, played by Scott Porter, through rehab, breaking up with his girlfriend, finding purpose and joy in quadriplegic rugby, moving out to live on his own and miraculously becoming a father.

After such an amazing two years on the show, Porter was surprised when producers announced his storyline would end midway through the third season. TVGuide.com spoke with Porter about Jason's journey of becoming a father, his bond with cast members, his emotional final scene and what's next... read more 3 Comments

"Let's Get It On" | TV Show Recaps | 11/3/2007
Guest blogger Casey Marsella (Heroes) here! Leah couldn't make it tonight, but I'll do my best to recap this amazing show!Landry! Landry! Landry!Jesse Plemons made Dillon (and FNL fans) stand up and cheer tonight. His performance is what I love about this show. I’ve always noticed that the people who seem "out of place" are usually the ones most comfortable in their own skin. Landry used to be the goofy, one-liner sidekick, but he was always sure of himself. Tonight he proved that. His halftime speech was the highlight of the episode: "We can win together or lose alone." It was the perfect lead-in to: Clear eyes. Full hearts. Can’t lose!So, who’s together and who’s alone?Let’s start with the Taylors. Tami is thrilled to have her husband back, but not enough to give him the "green light." Coach was gently shot down and forced to sleep on the couch so Tami could finally get a good night’s sleep. The next day, the bags under his eyes initiated an unwanted ... read more
He's Back, Baby! | TV Show Recaps | 10/27/2007
Episode Recap: "Backfire"Who didn't have a little flutter in his (or her) heart when Coach Taylor, back in his Dillon Panther blues, stood up in front of that room like nothing had changed and said, "Let's go. Let's have some fun today"? What a way to end an episode that already just seemed to fly by.Aside from that weird, Mafia-like threat from Coach MacGregor ("I have a family, too, and you just remember that. I'll be seeing you again"), Eric's homecoming was nothing less than joyous. Julie and Tami are well on their way to patching things up, especially now that it looks like the grungy Swede might be out of the picture. Matt Saracen has someone back on his side again, and Buddy should probably be considered the town hero.Ah, Buddy. We may have just been witness to the only game in Panther history that Buddy honestly wanted his beloved team to lose. It was quite a sight to watch him hold back a grin as Smash got blocked again and again, leaving Dillon with a humiliating loss on t... read more
