| Friday Night Lights' Austin Homecoming Set for August |
| Written by Kelly | |
 The cast and crew of television football drama Friday Night Lights will kick off production in Austin once again on August 6th.
The critically acclaimed show, set in the fictional football-lovin’ small town of Dillon, Texas, has struggled in the ratings game, but like any good underdog it retains a fervent fan base. The last two seasons of FNL, filmed in Austin, have included cameos of local hangouts and landmarks such as the Alamo Deafthouse on South Lamar, Trophy's, Cheapo Discs, and the Broken Spoke. Expect to see more of Austin when season three begins airing on NBC next February. Can't wait to catch quarterback cutie Matt Saracen (Zach Gilford),
Coach Taylor (Kyle Chandler), and the gang? A new deal struck between
the network and DirectTV will give FNL super-fans a sneak peak at season three with episodes airing October 1. And you might be able to spot some the FNL
cast (like Taylor Kitsch, Minka Kelly and Jesse Plemons) in person, as
they usually hit the Austin hotspots around South Congress.
