Jason's final episode will find him visiting New York with his longtime
friend, Tim Riggins. Porter wouldn't reveal what happens in his
character's final moments, but he did admit that saying goodbye was
difficult. "My last scenes were with Taylor Kitsch,"
he said. "And Taylor and I basically flew to New York for my last week
on the show, and the two of us couldn't keep it together in the last
scene...there were definitely tears. Taylor would kill me for
telling you this, but there were definitely tears."

I just wanted to ask you. So, in the last episode, Lauren Conrad made a brief appearance, and then we'll be seeing Nigel Barker. Are
there any other guest stars that we should look out for this season,
and also, if you could get anyone to guest star on the show, who would
it be?
Truthfully, my secret fantasy right now is, I'm dreaming of Megan's mom because she comes up later, and being a huge fan of Friday Night Lights, I'm a little obsessed with Connie Britton,
and I kind of think Connie Britton is so perfect for the role of
Megan's mom. She's available, I don't know what's happening with the Lights, but she would be my dream mom for Megan right now.
Oh my gosh, please do whatever you can to get her.
I know, I know. And then of course, we just want to get Taylor Kitsch
just because. Who doesn't want Taylor Kitsch on their show? I'm
TV-obsessed. I don't even go for the movie stars. I just go for the
other shows that I'm psychotically fans of.

 If the season premiere of Friday Night Lights is any
indication, it's gonna be an exciting season for the Panthers both on
and off the field. It's senior year for many of the show's characters,
and not only is the team faced with new players, including a new
quarterback, but there are new hookups (Tim and Lyla), breakups (Landry
and Tyra), and more. (No murder this time around…we think.) You heard from Jesse Plemons…now get the goods from his FNL co-star/Panthers teammate Taylor Kitsch!
What was it like getting back to filming the latest season?
Pretty exciting. Riggs is definitely one of my favorite characters to portray. I love working in Austin, as well.

Rising Stars Taylor Kitsch (NBC's Friday Night Lights), who has a featured role in festival entrant Gospel Hill; and Kate Mara (Brokeback Mountain, We Are Marshall, Shooter), who is featured in Stone of Destiny, which will be screened this week.
As part of the program, the actors will
meet with three similarly recognized Shooting Stars, who were named by
the European Film Promotion Board: Hannah Herzsprung (Werther), Anamaria Marinca (Boogie), and Maryam Hassouni (Dunya & Desie). The program also includes a private casting workshop,
public symposiums, red-carpet events, and meetings with Frances McDormand,
Oscar winner and mentor in the program.
All three actors appear in films that have received a certain amount of notice.
Gospel Hill,
directed by Giancarlo Esposito, deals with a predominantly black town
that has faced racial tensions since the civil rights era. Citizens of
the town are now being moved off of their land in favor of a
multimillion dollar golf course. Kitsch plays Joel Herrod, the son of
an ex-sheriff who incited the racial tensions 30 years ago after not
prosecuting anyone for the murder of Peter Malcolm, a civil rights
activist played by Samuel L. Jackson.
"The
film deals with people's personal morals," says Kitsch. "It leads you
to ask what you would do in each character's situation. The audience
will learn a lot about themselves through this film. My character sees
the racial tensions in front of him and turns a blind eye to them, but
he recognizes their effects as well."

 With fall comes the return of your favorite TV stars. We've (the people at AOL) compiled a list of the 24 sexiest -- 12 men and 12 women -- who'll heat up the small screen as the temperature outside cools.
Taylor Kitsch
'Friday Night Lights'
Kitsch is your textbook All-American guy. His Tim Riggins looks great in (or out!) of his Dillon Panthers football uniform ... hey, it gets steamy down in Texas. Riggins may not earn straight As in school or relationships, but he gets extra credit for his awesome ability to score -- on and off the field.

 Hailed as one of the Top 10 shows of 2006 by Time Magazine and Entertainment Weekly, the critically acclaimed NBC drama Friday Night Lights has returned for a third season, first airing solely on Direct TV. An industry first, as part of a deal to finance the critically adored but seriously under-watched series, the 101 Network will air all 13 new episodes before their premiere on NBC in early 2009.
Expanding on the hit feature film and best-selling book, the series centers on the small rural town of Dillon, Texas, where the Dillon Panthers have faced many challenges with Coach Eric Taylor (Kyle Chandler) at the helm. Picking up eight months after last season left off, Lyla (Minka Kelly) has ditched her Christian boyfriend (Matt Czuchry) and is back in the arms of bad-boy Tim Riggins (Taylor Kitsch). Canadian actor Taylor Kitsch spoke to MediaBlvd Magazine about how excited he is to be back for another season, and what fans can expect from Riggs.
MediaBlvd Magazine> Are you excited about getting to come back for another season?
Taylor Kitsch> I am, to say the least. I’ve learned a lot. I’m just excited to play Riggs. Playing him is so much fun. The freedom we have on this show is nothing like anything I’ve ever done. To get back into the shoes of Riggs is great.
MediaBlvd> Does this new deal for Friday Night Lights even enter your head, or do you just focus on the season?
Taylor> From the get go, we’ve always been on the ropes. Chands (Kyle Chandler) is a huge influence, seeing how he acts and reacts to all of it. It’s going to be the same thing this time around, and it’s going to be that much better ‘cause we’ve all grown as actors and as people. We’re excited to chip away and see what we get.
MediaBlvd> What is it like when you get a script and you see some of the interactions you’ll have? Are you always surprised?
Taylor> I don’t know if I’m surprised. From Season 2, I learned that I have to trust the writers and where they’re taking the character because they have the whole arc and I don’t. I don’t like to know too far ahead, so I can just play the scene. It’s exciting to get the scripts. I would love to work with Kyle more, but everyone in the cast would say that. I’m excited just to get another season.

From Variety...
"Friday Night Lights" showrunner Jason Katims has
generously agreed to answer fan questions exclusively here on Season
Pass. The person who asks the question Jason deems the best will win
the Season 2 DVD set.
"FNL" returns to the air tonight only on DirecTV.
In a Hail Mary pass from NBC to the satellite provider, our amazing
show was saved to live another season. In a unique shared window setup,
all 13 episodes will air on DirecTV's channel 101 starting tonight and
then begin airing in February on NBC. I'm thinking NBC should have
plenty of open spots on its sked by then, based on their new shows I've
seen so far.
I've seen "FNL's" first episode and I can tell you it matches the
quality we've all come to expect. The writers, directors and cast,
especially the phenomenal Connie Britton and Kyle Chandler, are all
still at the top of their games. The time lapse between the last
episode of Season 2 and this first episode of Season 3 has been handled
deftly. You will quickly be caught up with everyone's lives.
Here's how the Q&A works:
1) Leave a comment with your question between now and Friday, Oct. 10.
2)
I will choose the 20 best questions and email them to Jason who will
then answer at least 10 of them and hopefully more, depending upon his
availability and the complexity of the questions.
3) Check back on
this post for updates on when you can expect the answers -- I'm
shooting for Wednesday, Oct. 22. Again, it depends on Jason's schedule.
Things to keep in mind:
1) Read through the comments to see what others have asked so we aren't getting the same question over and over.
2)
You may ask more than one question, but I am going to spread the wealth
so I will probably only choose one question per person to submit to
Jason.
3) Nothing is off limits, Jason said, but giving away future
plot points is always an iffy proposition. Ask wisely. Remember this is
your chance to delve into the creative process of one of the finest
shows on television.
Fire away. And enjoy the show tonight (if you have DirecTV). Link
