Friday Night Lights Star: "Our Fingers Are Crossed"

Speaking with TV Guide at Thursday night's Entourage premiere party, Connie Britton said she has heard "a lot of positive talk" about Friday Night Lights possibly getting a Season 2 pickup, but added, "You never know until you know."Britton suggested that the "old-school ratings" system hasn't given the acclaimed drama its due, noting, "When we go out [in public], so many people seem to be loving it, so I really do think it's building an audience. And the people who are watching it are so committed to it. We have our fingers crossed, hoping [for a renewal], but we feel very optimistic about it." — Additional reporting by Carita Rizzo
