DirecTV Rolls Out All New Commercial-Free Fall Season Line Up on October 1

Written by Kelly

It all starts on Wednesday, October 1 when the highly anticipated third season of Friday Night Lights makes its 101 Network debut at 9 p.m. ET/PT. The series will air in HD and commercial-free for the first time ever, allowing fans to experience all the drama, suspense, action and adventure that viewers have come to love from the critically acclaimed series--with no interruptions. The new season will follow Coach Taylor (Kyle Chandler) as he copes with an uncertain team after the graduation of star running back Smash Williams (Gaius Charles). Fans will also watch Tami Taylor (Connie Britton) adjust to her role as the new Dillon High School principal and how her new duties affect the Taylor family, both at home and at the school. Tyra (Adrianne Palicki), Lyla (Minka Kelly) and Riggins (Taylor Kitsch) enter senior year this season and deal with the pressures of high school romance, playing for the team and life after graduation. It's the most action packed season yet and DIRECTV subscribers get to watch the episodes first before the show's NBC run in 2009. Friday Night Lights fans will get to spend more time with their favorite cast members on the new companion television show Live From Dillon (Wednesdays immediately following Friday Night Lights beginning October 15). The program will feature different cast members each week as they discuss their characters, plot lines and even take live viewer questions. The Taylor Family (Kyle Chandler, Connie Britton and Aimee Teegarden) are scheduled to appear on the first episode. Link
