    This show is actually improving:) hide show

    This show is actually improving:) For me I see a lot of improvement than the past episodes, it is starting to have a deep and intimate sense of this show. I feel sorry for Jason that he feels that way well if I was in the story I would say don't give up. And that voodoo guy no offense kinda creeped me out well I guess that guy is a good actor:)

    In the biggest game of the season, Coach Taylor must decide between Matt and Ray for the starting quarterback spot. Tim and Lyla's relationship continues, and Jason shows soem hope. hide show

    This episode was suprisingly above average, and was overall a good episode, especially considering this was the week it was shown in place of "Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip". Some of the parts of the show do seem somewhat blank, but at least they are progressing the relationship between Matt and Coach Taylor's daughter. Also, the addition of Ray Vodoo was a good addition, and hopefully that storyline will continue to be as interesting as it was. While Jason's storyline doesn't seem all that entertaining at times, he is one of the shows main characters and I'm glad they keep showing his struggle against himself. Overall, some parts of this episode were average, and some parts were above average.

    Def one of the best shows on TV! I haven't had emotions like this since The OC first season. hide show

    I just LOVE the premise of this show. Matt Saracen is what keeps me watching. His awkward manner, his nervous tendancies, his aspirations to be great. It just reminds me of myself. That's why I think I love the show so much. It just feels very real. Even the games your sitting there routing Saracen and the team on and booing Voodoo!

    Well this time around, doubt encircles the town as to who is going to start. A loss in this game is not going to be allowed. Its either win or have the town destroy the Coaches. In comes Voodoo. A cocky knowitall that thinks hes the whole team, ala Terrell Owens. He protests everything that Coach Taylor wants and hates everything about the town.

    But anyone really care about the Tyra storyline?? That was probably the biggest waste of time in the show so far. I don't really care about her or anything surrounding her.

    Watching the actual game was the best part of the show. It's a great formula that shows underdog quarterback coming into his position. Voodoo gets shown as a loose cannon that cant truely lead a team if the team doesnt want him as a leader.

    I love this show and cant WAIT for the next episode althought it would be heartbreaking if that win gets taken away because of stupid Voodoo.

    Great show and hopefully will get some ratings! hide show

    I would hate for this show to get cancelled as
    This is a good family drama and that it is
    Really with good acting and great writing as when the star
    QB goes down, that is Jason, Coach Taylor is faced with
    A dilimea to either go with Matt or Ray as Jason
    Has self confidence to rehab and get on the road to Recovery. As the relationship between Tim & Lyla grows stronger!
