This is a show that's scored way more than it has faltered, and the opening episode suggests that streak will continue.February 05, 2015
I measure the quality of each episode based on my tear and cheer count, and this episode proved high in both. Ah, Dillon, Texas. How I have missed you.February 06, 2015
This season may be about saying goodbyes, but for now I'm just happy to have Friday Night Lights back.February 05, 2015

What's most remarkable about Friday Night Lights (outside of the quality of the writing and acting on the actual program) is how the show survived.
