With the start of season two only a couple weeks away (Friday, October 5th) it's time to take a peak at some of the rumours that are circling about our friends in Dillon Texas. Desertnews.com posted an article with information about the season, ranging from official to rumour.

They explain,

When the series returns, Tami is in labor, which brings Eric home from Austin. (As with Season 1, Season 2 will cover a high school football season, so it's been eight months of "FNL" time since the first-season finale.)... Coach Taylor has been replaced at Dillon High. A new coach (Chris Mulkey) has been hired to lead the Panthers as they defend their state title.

The idea of skipping the off season and getting ready back to the football seems like the right choice to me. Airing a season consisting of the off season would make FNL a little bit too much like One Tree Hill, not to mention greatly reduce the football content. As for having a new coach, I'm a little hesitant. This is simply only because of how much I love Taylor. The news article suggests though that the new coach isn't going to last, and I hope this is true. Obviously the writers need to keep things interesting but I really hope Taylor reprises his role as coach of the Panthers. (to view all of the spoilers follow this link.)

As we gear up for season two what are your hopes and expectations? What are your concerns?

FNL is hands down the best show on TV. The acting, dialogue, and storylines have me glued to the TV every week. I'm nervous as hell about the new timeslot on Friday nights. Just keeping my fingers crossed that this show sticks around for several more seasons. I'd be pretty disappointed if Kyle Chandler doesn't return as the Dillon coach. I can't think of a more perfectly casted show on TV right now, and he'd be a huge loss.
