Last night’s FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS: Tim Riggins Edition was not only the ideal way for FNL to ring in the new year, but also managed to give this TV Addict a quasi-brilliant idea to get NBC out of the ratings cellar.
Presenting Tim Riggins week on NBC! No seriously, keep reading…
Following Riggins unexpected misunderstanding with Coach Taylor (who also deserves a shout out for his incredible dressing down of Coach Loserbee Laribee), Tim hops onto his pick-up truck and leaves Dillon (shirt optional).
First stop, Sunday night where Riggins takes on NBC’s AMERICAN GLADIATORS. After wiping the floor with Hulk Hogan et al, Riggins drops by THE BIGGEST LOSER on Tuesday to show the losers, umm… we mean winners, how to go from this to this. Realizing gas isn’t cheap, Riggins heads on over to DEAL OR NO DEAL on Wednesday to win a few bucks. Ensuring he’s made enough to make it to 30 ROCK on Thursday, where Judah Friedlander’s Frank yet again, ‘goes gay’. Finishing off the week back in Dillon, where the Taylor’s officially adopt him and live happily ever after.
Now tell me you aren’t going to tune into NBC for that?
