Product ReviewsFriday Night Lights: The Complete Series (DVD, 2011, 19-Disc Set, Collectible Packaging)

High Caliber Melodrama

FNL is not really a sports show. It has some sports type action. But that isn't what it is. It is a classic melodrama, and an excellent one at that. If you enjoy family dramas, or serialized story telling in general, give it a go. It is one of the finest series ever on network TV.Read full review...

Small town Texas football serves as the ultimate American metaphorical truth.

The best way to understand American white folk, their bullshit fantasies about 'freedom' and their Jekyll and Hyde rhetoric about the constitution, you will do well to study this show. Even if you are repelled by football, the situations, dialog and plotting are all interesting.Read full review...

Great series, one of the best I've seen

Great series, can't stop watching! Wish it were more than 5 seasons, definitely a show worth watching. Engaging characters, and while football is the theme of the show, it's definitely NOT all about football!Read full review...

Only a few CD's into it but am enjoying it like a good book one wants to keep turning pages in to see what's next.

Great TV Show

Best football TV show EVER. The cast and acting is solid and so likable, and the story feels so real. Another TV Show I’ve seen over and over, and a top 3 favorite! Enjoy watching.

Do yourself a favor and sit down and watch the 1st few episodes!!!

If you haven't seen this series your really missing out. The cast in the show seem to make the characters they portray seem like people we know and the storylines are so addicting that after seeing the entire series and you don't own the box set, you soon will.
The show initially with all probability turned more than a few people away due to the title and the belief that it would follow mostly football (much like the movie).
Try to watch the 1st and 22nd episodes. You'll. Be hooked!DRead full review...

not just about football

the characters remind me of some I went to school with. The problems of growing up and the pains and love of family is touching.
