Here’s the verdict of THE EMMYS:
The real shocker, quite the welcome one, was NBC/Direct TV’s Friday Night Lights winning both Outstanding Writing and Lead Actor, giving series creator Jason Katims and star Kyle Chandler their first wins. For a series that fought for viewers and respect with every episode, it was awesome to finally see some recognition. With the show off the air, hopefully this drives some curious skeptics to the DVDs to discover one of the best dramas out there.
