BEST OF TV (2011 EDITION) | Saying Goodbye to the Best Show on TV » Friday Night Lights

“Jason Street got paralyzed. I realized that he was this great guy, I mean like this hero, and it happened to him. And it, it made me realize that life isn’t fair for anybody. Not just me. I became friends with Julie and Mrs Taylor started to take some interest in me. Started doing my homework. You. I met you. I started to feel like I was on the inside instead of the outside.” - Tyra Colette (3.12, Underdogs)

Seven seconds. This is the last play of the game for the Dillon offense. Let’s see if Matt Saracen can pull this one off.

We’ve suffered a big loss. A big loss. Some of you may be scared. And that’s natural. Now, some of you may be really pissed off. One good thing about football is we get to channel that energy. This team has never been about one player. It’s about all of us. Every single one of us. And if we’re gonna come back from this loss, we’re gonna need every one of us. Not one man. Every single one of us. Together.

Right now it’s not really about who wins or loses, Father. We just all wanna be with Street right now, God. We know that you work in mysterious ways and we just wanna send our spirit, our presence, our love just to heal him in whatever way, oh Lord. Whatever might be broke, oh Lord, just fix it right now, Father. Jesus, in your name we pray. Amen.

Tyra: Tim, you are so dumb. You know that?
Tim: You know how many times I’ve heard that this week? About 5000 times, Tara. Maybe, uh, try something else.
Tyra: Okay, how about stupid? You know, Mrs Taylor is trying to help you. You’re lucky you still have someone who cares whether you pass or fail, how bout that? You know what you are? You’re an ungrateful, ignorant jackass.
Tim: (smiles) You know I miss you, right?
