FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS
On NBC's adaptation of the acclaimed 2004 feature film (debuting Oct. 3), Kyle Chandler plays Eric Taylor, a newbie high-school football coach in small-town Texas. ''The most important thing is the big W: the win... The pressures are intense. That's the fun of the character,'' Chandler told EW's Michael Endelman.
