Exclusive: Friday Night Lights Lives On!

Score!

Multiple sources within NBC confirm that the network has ordered six additional Friday Night Lights scripts!

OK, it might not be a full-on renewal, but it's the next best thing. And let's face it, a second season is so in the bag it's not even funny.

Who's buying the first round tonight?

I'll buy drinks tomorrow night, regardless of how the Panthers do at State.

It's about time! This just made my day...FNL is one of the best shows on tv right now. Great writing and acting...it has it all. I can't wait for the finale tomorrow night...but I will be sad that we have to take a break from Dillon for awhile...but atleast it's not forever!

Whoo-hoo!!!! Thanks for the news, Mike!

So it's only a matter of time before they get the full season pick-up, right? Right? Right?

I still refuse to get my hopes up (I've been burned too many times), but if something was to get my hopes up, this would be it.

YES.

Oh my god. Yahoo! I'm so thrilled I could kiss Buddy Garrity. I have recently decided that FNL is my favorite network show, and that includes Lost, Heroes, & House!

Thank you, NBC. Now keep going...we need a full season pick up, ASAP!!

Michael: How about a car since everyone else is buying drinks? This is great news. I can't wait for Wednesday's show, but then we'll have to wait until the fall for more new FNL.

I'm surprised one of my co-workers didn't just say "I'll have what she's having" I was so ecstatically exclaiming YES YES YES! Please let this be the sign of things to come and a speedy full season renewal. Best show on TV right now, bar none, and I love lots of other things on the air, but none that make this kind of impact on me. Thanks NBC!!!

Beyond awesome! This is far and away my favorite show this season. I even got my teenage daughter interested in it.

Please forgive me if this is a dumb question but what does it mean if they ordered scripts? Writers work hard, shows get made? Or writers work hard, show is still waiting for 2nd season approval... FNL is wonderful: The actors are awesome, Kyle Chandler's hair is awesome, but the writers? THEY ROCK.
