Tipped off by Alan Sepinwall (see how useful Twitter is?), I see that Entertainment Weekly's usually reliable Michael Ausiello has great news on a possible pickup for the adored Friday Night Lights. I was extra-worried once they handed over five nights a week to Jay Leno; I'd sure like to see this turn out to be true. It would be good news for the show and its fans, but also an interesting victory for unusual distribution deals like the one that aired the most recent FNL season on DirecTV before it came to NBC.
