Friday Night Lights: Season 3

I cannot sing the praises of this show enough. It is my favorite show on television today, and may be the best television drama series, ever.The fictitious town of Dillon, Texas is not just any small town. It could be my small town in the Great Northwest. The character dynamics occur in small towns all over the world, although my town folks may be loco crazy over its nationally award winning high school Lacrosse team or choral group instead of State Championship football team. The way a town puts all of its hopes and dreams into its young people is universal. And in harsh economic times like those we are living through today, those hopes and dreams may be all a town has to hold onto.I'd like to single out the shows stars, Kyle Chandler and Connie Britton, as the most believable married couple on television. All married couples can only aspire to have a marriage as solid and supportive as theirs. Chandler's portrayal of the head coach of the Panthers is just right, a blend of passion and absolute no nonsense. As his wife often tells him, "You're a good man," as he constantly wrestles with decisions of doing what's right for the team, and what is right. Both Chandler and Britton deserve Emmy recognition for their honest and credible portrayals of Coach Eric and Tami Taylor. They make it look effortless. The younger actors in the cast are absolutely brilliant and equally honest.The season finale is quite a cliff hanger that promises big changes in Season 4, which airs on NBC beginning Friday, April 30, 2010. Check your local listing for time and get caught up so you can be ready to watch Season 4!

I am so amazed that this series wasn't a huge hit. It got better every season. Sure there were cast changes, but the new members fit extremely well into the story-line and the show kept improving. I am so pleased that I am able to own this series so that I can watch it over and over. My wife had never seen the series, but when I showed her season 1 she was instantly hooked. If you think this story is about high school football you're wrong. This is a story about a small West Texas community and the people who live there. The writing is excellent and the acting outstanding. The angst between the characters is magnetic and the stories draw the viewer in. It seems as if one is part of the community and is watching their friends interact. Definitely worth the price of admission and I don't believe anyone will regret the purchase. I sure don't. THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST TV SERIES EVER PRODUCED. My hat is off to Peter Berg. He may not have been the best actor ever, but his producing talent is amazing.

Love, Love, Loved it! I didn't see my kids for two days while watching the season 3 series of Friday Night Lights (I actually faked a migraine so I could lock myself in my bedroom and watch the last 2 episodes in peace).The performances alone were enough to hook me, every character resonated with me and reminded me of someone I know because they're all so real. The relationship between the coach and his wife Tammy feels so authentic I wonder if they have a relationship in 'real life' and both of their relationships with their daughter Julie inspire me to be a better mum and really get to know my kids as human beings.This brilliance of this series really comes down to the genius of the writers. The dialogue (which is delivered with perfection) is true and pure and really hits the spot, I cried, I laughed and I loved with these characters. I really invested my emotions in it and I can't wait to watch season 4.

I am a huge LOST fan, could care less about football, and WAY past my teen years, yet I am completely hooked on this show. It is hands down the best drama on TV now. I picked up Season 1 a few months ago and after it sat for awhile I watched it in a marathon session. I then promptly went out and purchased the next 2 seasons and am eagerly awaiting Season 4. I tell anyone who will listen to WATCH THIS SHOW. Where are the awards? What's wrong with the industry that FNL hasn't been nominated for everything under the sun? It is perfection. I'm sure everyone who has watched it has been to that school, dated that girl or guy, argued like that with your husband or wife - the lists goes on and on. Never before has a TV show touched me like this one. PLEASE don't turn out the lights.

We're not from Texas. We don't love football, but our family (2 teenage daughters) is hooked on this show. It could be the greatest acting ensemble that I've seen in a long time. Only complaint is that some of the sexual content goes too far, but the parents speak to their children about sex the way you wish you could communicate with yours. It has actually created a reason for open dialogue with our kids about. I should say, that even if we didn't have kids, my husband and I would love this show. Again, I cannot stress enough the quality of the acting and dialogue here. We are all going to be very sad when we have to make the switch to the present season in real-time, but with 3 great seasons on dvd, we shouldn't really complain about how we get more. LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!!

If you haven't watch an episode of this series, you are definitely missing out. When people ask me what this series is about, the words high-school football is what comes to mind but this series is more than that. It is about the passion and love of football and how it affects the lives of people of a small fictional town. Like the previous seasons, each episode of Season 3 has it's own emotional, moving story. The way the characters have grown throughout the series is so realistic that it's hard not to learn and love the characters. The special features themselves are scarce but the quality of the episodes are too good not to be re-watched so you don't need any extras.Amazon carefully and promptly shipped this product to Australia so have no concerns when considering to buy this DVD.

DVDs play fine, no scratches or problems

I have watched this series so many times.....never gets old! I have all the DVD's except season 5.....love them!

The series continues to get better as the seasons go by.

Une série pleine de punch et d'émotion, délivrant un très juste portrait de l'adolescence, (pléiade de fabuleux jeunes acteurs) sur qui veille le couple de l'inoubliable Coach TAYLOR interprété par un magnifique et très attachant Kyle CHANDLER et de sa pétillante épouse Tami qu'incarne la superbe Connie BRITTON. La toile de fond du football américain (dont on n'a pas du tout besoin de connaître les règles tant le traitement est dosé et pédagogique) ne fait que servir le déploiement des intrigues humaines, émouvantes, enthousiasmantes, riches d'enseignements et toujours passionnantes. Un joyau.

I wasn't sure if I wanted to buy the third season ... but it' s was such a great deal then I decided to buy it ... well I'm very glad that I took a chance. To me, the third season so far is really good !

You can usually never beat the first series of these kind of shows but I think this does keep pretty much to the standard. Skips over some story aspects at the beginning which I won't spoil for you but I think it has a bit more emotional punch than series two, which also had some pretty wild story lines for some characters. Overall this is a great series if you like sports based dramas and has a nice mix of adult and coming of age aspects to the characters lives.

Meilleur série au monde !!! (après c'est mon opinion) Mais si cher futur acheteur tu est sur cette page, c'est soit que tu as les saisons précédentes alors là pas la peine de te dire quoi que se soit tu vas forcément l'acheter, soit vous êtes la par hasard et alors là, je vous dirai : acheter le !!!!! (acheter les saisons précédentes avant quand même ! :) )
