Friday Night Lights

Friday Night Lights: A Town, a Team, and a Dream is a 1990 non-fiction book of immersive journalism written by H. G. Bissinger, following the story of the 1988 Permian High School Panthers football team from Odessa, Texas, as they made a run towards the Texas state championship. While originally intended to be a Hoosiers-type chronicle of high school sports holding together a small town, it ends up as a critical commentary of town life in Odessa. It was later adapted into a short-lived 1993 television series, a 2004 feature film, and a second 2006–11 television series.
