A Friday Night Lights Spin-Off? The Cast's Idea Will Blow Your Mind

If you're still cheering for the Dillon Panthers while marathoning Friday Night Lights on Netflix, you may want to sit down. When we caught up with three FNL stars—Stacey Oristano (Mindy Riggins), Derek Phillips (Billy Riggins), and Adrianne Palicki (Tyra Collette)—at the ATX Television Festival, they pitched two big spin-offs—and one is closer to happening than you'd think. This is a big reunion for you all. What was the first thing you did when you saw one another? Adrianne: We actually see each other in L.A. all the time, but this is even better. Derek: This is an excuse to see each other where we used to hang out. Adrianne: Aw, where we all became friends. Derek: It feels like a high school reunion. Where would your characters be now, in 2015? Derek: Billy might be in a grave—I don't know. [Laughs] Adrianne: I think Tyra is literally following in the footsteps of Tami Taylor. I think she's counseling at some big college, and she might be married to Tim Riggins, who is a football coach somewhere. They are literally the same couple as Tami and Eric. If they were to make a Friday Night Lights spin-off with that plot
