FNL Season 3 Is Complete

Season 3 of Friday Night Lights is over. For those who haven't worked their way through to the end yet, I envy you.

To help relive the glory, try the quiz to see how well you know the latest season. I got a 23/25 (NBD).

For those in the same black hole I've found myself, as Scos pointed out, Rescue Me is a great show, with every single past and upcoming episode available on Hulu.

Hulu runs shit

Apparently there are people in this world who don't know what Hulu is. Well Alec Baldwin breaks it down above. As he explains, Hulu turns your brain to mush, which was pretty apt considering how the ad was the 30th commercial I was watching via mush-inducing Hulu.

In AMDAL related news: Some people say that I post too many videos and pictures and not enough actual SUBSTANCE. Well Heather and Ayesha were supposed to be posting something hilarious and substantive, but apparently everything is a bit slower on the west coast. So I will continue on my minimalist bent until my writer's block lifts or I'm upstaged.

Hi,
Hey glad you're an avid fan and use Hulu for watching. I don't have all the details around this but do know that when the video went live we weren't sure if online streaming was cleared. I think this is why we didn't immediately put the ep in the masthead. It's certainly there now after we confirmed with NBC. The folks around the office who are in change of promotion also like this show so I think you'll continue to see it featured :)

Thanks,
Rob

I should leave this kind of stuff to the experts

NY Mag is superior to AMDAL. There, I've said it.

Breathe.

OK, so in a spirit of deference, I refer you to the following articles. The first is about why it's tiring to have so many good shows on TV. The second is why the producers of Heroes should jump off a bridge. Have you seen it? Why can't one of the characters have some sense of continuity? Turning it on requires an understanding that you'll say, "This doesnt make any fucking sense!" at least three times in one episode. Its horrible and I can't stop watching.

In other TV-related news, can someone give me an FNL update? Instead of just watching I'll just wait for Forrest to give me the rundown, per last time.
