Product Details

If the fourth year marked the end of an era, the fifth revolves around new beginnings: Tami returns to her role as guidance counselor (after a controversial reign as principal), Buddy takes his wayward son under his wing, Julie (Aimee Teegarden) has a rough start at college, Billy (Derek Phillips) becomes assistant football coach, Becky moves in with him and his wife, and quarterback Vince (Michael B. Jordan), who continues to see Jess (Jurnee Smollett), tangles with his recently paroled father, Ornette (Cress Williams). Naturally, there are a few new arrivals, but they don't make the same impact as returning Dillon veterans Landry (Jesse Plemons), Jason (Scott Porter), Matt (Zach Gilford), Tyra (Adrianne Palicki), and Billy's younger brother, Tim (Taylor Kitsch), whose adjustment to life after prison parallels Ornette's experience.
This 13-episode arc traces the road to the state championships and marks the end of one of television's most emotionally involving shows, always operating on the principle that everyone can change, and that there's still room on network TV for semi-improvised, documentary-style filmmaking. Deleted scenes, commentary tracks, and a featurette offer a comprehensive look back at a stellar series, truly one of the medium's very best. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

5.0 out of 5 stars
So sad to see the series end,
By Sarah Mayes (Ottawa, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Friday Night Lights: The Complete Fifth and Final Season (DVD)
I feel like many people may have been turned off of this series because it focuses on high school football. Like many great sports movies, however, this show has been about so much more, with a depth of characters that is really astounding. You really don't have to be a football fan (I'm not) to love Friday Night Lights. Just a fan of great acting, complex stories and relationships, and wonderful television. I was sorry to see it end, but loved every minute of the five seasons.

Hands down my favorite TV series. I wish it didn't have to end. I will be revisiting this season many times over the next couple years.
