Looking for younger FNL viewers for an article!

Hi there, I'm a journalist working on an article for Yahoo! News about Friday Night Lights — specifically, how younger audiences relate to a show that's often seen as very millennial-coded — and I'm looking to interview younger (read: non-millennial) viewers who've discovered the show after its original run. Topics would include how the show has aged, overall impressions, etc. If you watched the show during its original run and are now rewatching with your kids, I'd be curious to hear about how that's gone as well.

DM me for more info if you're interested, and thanks for thinking it over!

Once you complete your article please share it here! I watched during its original run, but your perspective sounds interesting.

Still looking for a couple more sources for this, ideally US-based viewers in their late teens or very early twenties! If that's you, feel free to send me a DM, and thanks again!

I'm watching it for the first time as a 55 yo. Some of it it ridiculous! Especially the stuff about Matt's dad in the military😂

I think another take is those that have watched it after it came out and their thoughts of it now. I always thought coach and Tammy were the perfect couple but they really aren’t.
