   I am so glad that SOMEONE has the good sense to grab this show up...one of THE BEST shows I have ever watched....seriously, when most of the options are IDIOTS and DRUNKS looking for their 15 minutes, this show is absolutely one of the best. SHAME on NBC for dropping it......guess they need the time slot for some more STUPID REALITY CRAPFEST.

   How does a show that has always done poorly in the ratings get second and third chances. It's a terrible, racist program and the 21 responses in this page must be the actual 21 people who actually watch this crap throughout America.

   This was an amazing show. Sad it ended. Great drama and about sports. They should make one with Coach Taylor as a college coach

      You're sure some great fan. The show's been cancelled for a year. This story is about the reruns.

    Best show to be on television in recent years. How about they just keep the show running as opposed to selling the rights to every channel between 1-99. It is clear they have a fanbase....

    Love this show and its accuracy; they're even talking about budget cuts and standardized tests.

      Of course, that's really part of the reason that Texas is such a joke.
      The only ones who aren't laughing are other Texans.

    Terrible program. Total waste of time. Almost as bad as Glee.

    So glad to hear this!! ABC Family started re-running the 5 seasons, and then abrubtly stopped in season 2! Love this show and I'm terribly sad to see it go off the air!
