As I mentioned earlier today, there's a chance the most recent episode of Friday Night Lights could be the end of the show forever. Can't let that happen? Across the Internet, a variety of fan-driven movements are starting up to lobby for keeping the show on the air. Here's how to get involved:

 

The folks at Best Week Ever have a whole FNL booster club going on, complete with a petition to save the show and an initiative to send light bulbs to NBC to urge the network to keep the lights on. They write: "Light bulbs are cheap, easy to come by, and if they break during shipping, the shattered glass might even seem vaguely threatening when NBC opens the package. Sort of like, 'You try to take away our Panthers, and we might just cut you.'

 

This campaign is trying to raise money to send mini footballs to NBC. This one's similar to that Jericho nuts campaign in that you donate money that will go to a group shipment of footballs. Each dollar gets you one football, and the group is hoping to ship 2,500 footballs to NBC (they're at about 550 right now). You can also follow their efforts on MySpace and Facebook.

 

Another Facebook group is organizing to send bottles of Clear Eyes eyedrops to NBC, playing on the "clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose" motto.

 

Give Me My Remote is encouraging fans to make videos explaining why they love Friday Night Lights. She'll collect them all and send them on to NBC.

E!'s Watch With Kristin has a few simple recommendations for how to help the show get renewed: Buy the DVDs or watch episodes online to get some FNL buzz going.

 

There's also another online petition to save the show.

 

Starry Constellation, an online magazine, recently posted the link to an audio interview they did with Taylor in the fall.  

 

Taylor talks about his role as Riggins on FNL, how he got into acting and a lot more!

Friday Night Lights:  May The Best Man Win (Final Pre-Strike Episode) airs on NBC tonight at 9/8c!
 
Brian "Smash" Williams is determined to get a football scholarship to college despite the recent events that have transpired. However, Brian is very shocked when the most unlikely place offers him what may be the opportunity of his life. Tami Taylor runs into her ex-boyfriend from high school, a big real estate mogul, and he decides to stay in Dillon for a few days. A few days proves to be too long as Coach Taylor begins to feel a bit jealous. Elsewhere, Jason Street hears the biggest news of his life since his accident and must decide if he is willing to change his life completely. Meanwhile, Tim Riggins continues his pursuit of Lyla by getting his own radio show at the Christian radio station. Lyla seems to be enjoying her current relationship with her Christian boyfriend as she goes with him to meet his family.

Thanks to Alicia from the Official Taylor Kitsch Fan MySpace page, we now have a little more information about Taylor's participation in Luc Robitaille's Celebrity Shootout last month.

 

The team Taylor played on was called the Bud Lite Ice Stars, and was coached by Stacia Robitaille and Reece Thompson. Taylor's teammates included Scott Wolf, Dave Annable, Chip and Pepper Foster, Marty McSorley, Tony Amonte, Michael Rosenbaum &  Luc Robitaille...to name a few.

 

Taylor and all the other players signed jerseys that will be auctioned off at a later date. Much like the shootout itself, the proceeds from the auction will benefit Echoes of Hope. We'll keep you posted on the auction, so be sure to check back regularly!

 

 

 

There is now an official MySpace fan page for Taylor that is run by a small group of people and has been approved by his representatives.

Lainey, the lady who interviewed Taylor for Canada's entertainment show 'eTalk Daily' last month, had a chance to speak with Scott Porter at the Superbowl this past week-end. Here's what they had to say about Taylor...

Damn right I’m going to talk about NBC’s Friday Night Lights on Super Bowl Sunday. It’s the only show that deserves mention on a day when the Patriots are seeking perfection and the Giants are looking to become one of the greatest underdog stories in NFL history. Friday Night Lights is perfect — and it’s one of television’s biggest underdogs.

 

Most impressive is Taylor Kitsch as Tim Riggins, the town bad boy who is more complex and soulful than anyone gives him credit for. With the simplest of stares, Kitsch can convey longing, sadness and humor in one beat. Brilliant.

 

#9. Taylor Kitsch - This Friday Night Lights star has the abs of a Greek God and the acting chops of a young Brad Pitt.
