Friday Night Lights (TV series)/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • When Coach finds out that Julie let him believe Tim was taking advantage of her while she was drunk, rather than helping her and protecting her from a creep, he responds "Damn, Julie. Damn." Kind of a Moment of Awesome for Kyle Chandler as well, since according to episode commentary there was originally a long speech planned, and Chandler adlibbed that line instead.
  • Coach chasing Julie's lecherous TA off his property.
  • Matt Saracen leading the team back to the brink of victory in the season 3 finale after JD McCoy implodes.
  • Buddy Garrity telling the Panther boosters to go to hell when one of them calls Tammi a "bitch."
  • Matt in the first episode, stepping in for the paralyzed Jason with a beautiful pass to win the game.
  • In "Thanksgiving" Landry kicking the winning field goal, and Coach's pep talk before it, ruining JD McCoy and the Panthers's playoff dreams.
  • Every single season finale has one relating to football.
  • "Black Eyes and Broken Hearts", wherein Tim Riggins demonstrates that you can only be a racist bully for so long before he'll have to put you down.
