HUGE Day for FNL!

According to Cynthia Littleton of Variety, NBC and DirecTV are expected to decide today on a two-season, 26-episode pickup of "Friday Night Lights."

Earlier this month, all signs were pointing to the Peacock and the satcaster were closing in on a deal to save the Imagine TV/Universal Media Studios series, but then early last week there was a hiccup over money -- what else? -- specifically the fee that DirecTV would pay for the right to air the episodes first, commercial-free, as the marquee offering on its 101 Network channel.

Hopefully FNL fans will have some good news to share later today.
