'Friday Night Lights' video: Connie Britton drops by with MAJOR scoop!

Connie-britton-ausiello_l[1] How do I love Friday Night Lights‘ resplendent, Emmy-worthy leading lady (and Ausiello TV guest) Connie Britton? Let me count the ways…

1)    She modifies her summer travel plans in order to appear on my fledgling web series. 
2)    She breaks major freakin’ news about FNL likely ending in 2011: “I think the intention is to do two more seasons and then that will be it.”
3)    She says funny things that make me giggle. Like this: “I’m pretty sure in the next two seasons there’s a very strong possibility that Tami will have an affair with a student.”
4)    She humors me when I offer her Emmy submission advice (and video evidence to back it up). 
5)    She breaks major freakin’ news about who will and won’t be back full time in season 4.

I could go on forever… or I could just direct you to our exclusive video Q&A after the jump. My typing skills suck so let’s go with option B. Enjoy!

    You think it’s major news that the show will end after the next two seasons? i figured everyone who watches TV and heard the news figured it was ending.

  • Mooshki

    She is just too awesome.

  • Adam

    2 years? That’s IF it lasts 2 years. Isn’t it on its last legs?
    She is a hottie though.

    The show has been renewed for two years already. There’s no IF it will last two more years, it WILL. I love this show. And it sucks that it’s so under-appreciated as it’s easily the best acted show on regular television.

    “Last legs” – Get a clue (or better yet, get the third season DVD). FNL is as amazing as ever.

    Fix the video, it’s not working!!
    I wanna see!

  • Scott King

    I hate your videos. The player never buffers right. So then I have to let it play. Pause it. Let it play. Pause it.

  • Casey Schneider

    That was great Emmy advice. I hope she takes it.

  • Impatient

    Scott, I totally agree. It’s very frustrating sitting here as it reloads every other sentence.

    Michael, you are one of the few who get the whole Twitter/Blog relationship. You never waste a tweet, and you always get me to follow your links. Then..Good Stuff! Thanks.

  • Morgan

    How do you not love that woman? Impossible.

  • Chritine

    AMAZING, I adore this actress, I would watch her read the phone book!

  • Kalie

    Love her. She looks terrific in this video. FNL is such a wonderful show and I’m so glad we have two more seasons to look forward to.

  • Si

    I thought Kyle Chandler and Connie Britton insisted to producers that they never wanted their characters to have an affair?
