Friday Night Lights Is Back!

According to this story, Friday Night Lights will be shared with DirecTV. Now, this raises DirecTV in my eyes quite a bit. We switch to DirecTV in my house a few months ago, and I will say tht my impression has not been favorable. I was a nine-year Dish Network subscriber, and then a one-year Comcast subscriber, and I think both offer better service. Dish is clearer and had fewer signal issues that DirecTV has so far. And, Comcast has On Demand and the western feed of cable channels. I had gotten used to being able to watch shows at decent hours. Of course, DirecTV offered better prices because of a bundle with our Qwest service, more channels in all the rooms, not just the ones with digital, and a free season of NFL Sunday Ticket.

But I digress. My beloved FNL will be back. Yay!
