The first season of Friday Night Lights aired on NBC the year of 2006 and ended the year of 2007 which was directed by Peter Berg. It had positioned around the Dillon Panthers and their new head coach Eric Taylor as they split with the compression of high school football in Texas and the hobbies that come on and off the field. Football is the main thing that unites the town, and individuals are always excited for Friday night’s game. Each character has their own particular life story, yet the focal point of it is football, school, and popularity. Football is the primary concern that joins the town. People live for Friday night. Every player has his own specific life, however the point of union of it is football. Yes, Friday Night Lights

is about more about football we’ve saw the show and know it is more also about family, growing up and a life in a small town called Dillon Texas. Throughout the arrangement Tim Riggins lives with his more established sibling Billy in the wake of having been abandoned by both their guardians. Although, Tim has his brother around he still does what he needs, at whatever point he needs to do it but he is slowing improving his ways he tries to do everything right in his life but something still does sit while with him. At the point when Tim's closest buddy Jason gets injured among the main round of the season everything changes. You begin to acknowledge how totally separated Tim is about it. Tim Riggins begins the first season of Friday Night Lights as a character with many problems, but as the season progresses, he improves himself, his relationship to the team, and his relationship with his family.
In this series, Taylor Kitsch plays as Tim Riggins, who played full back number 33 for the Dillon Panther football team. On the exterior, Riggins never declared to be anybody he wasn't keeping in mind he got a thrill out of the chance to drink and have a decent time as much as any other high school kid, he showed at least a bit of kindness, particularly when it came to family and buddies, yet on the interior we can infer that he felt bad about his ways he acts which is that he is following in his father footsteps. At first glance we can see that Riggins appears to struggle with school and have an undecided life; however, on closer inspection, we can already sense the rift of an absent father. Our first impressions of Riggins are that he is a drunk person who is throwing his whole life away and struggling in school. We can infer that he does not care about anybody but himself riggins plays football because he like to hurt people whoever get in his way he will knock them down.
Tim Riggins has such a variety of in his life yet the main individual that can change those ways is not possess.

But as the time goes by his life improve just a little bit because in three word you can describe Riggins as loyal, strong and independent which mean no matter what he still has a kind heart for people even those he might not show it, nobody can break him and he felt like he was on his own in life. During the series, Tim Riggins has spent a lot of his time drinking, created difficulties at practice through drinking and nonstop to drink even when it causes problems in his life. Because he is so used to being drunk, Tim gets wasted for everyday activities. Also, if he keeps drinking alcohol he can permanently scar and damage the liver, resulting in liver cirrhosis and an increased risk of liver cancer. he is easing his way through high school because he plays football and by drinking beer we also know that riggins is not very good at academics he repeatedly has the rally girls do his school work for him. However, Tami Taylor had to put an end to that but however Coach Taylor tell him that he must do his own work unless he won’t be able to play on the team. In Friday night lights season 1, episode 11 “Nevermind” Tim knows he must do his work as well because if he doesn't pass he won't play that mean every student must pass all of their classes with a passing grade to be able to play every Friday. Mrs. Taylor had offer Landry to help Tim with his book report because

she saw that Landry was a smart student so she wanted him to help Tim pass his book report which he does since he pulls off an B minus on the report and starts to do his own school work he does not depend on the rally girls no more.
Meanwhile, Coach Taylor made riggins team captain and the leader since he is the toughest on the team. But team captain is not just given to anybody it’s an honor it also comes with many responsibilities to those athletes whom the rest of the team respect and trust to lead the team in the right direction also captains are likely to perform in the clutch and lead the team to victory. He would do anything to help the team win football games when they need to such as blocking or running the ball to gain yard that they need for a first down. He would have a good game and even those he would not do as much for the team the team will still win the games. However, everybody would wont a riggins on their team since he was that big tough guy who would knock whoever in his way down on their back. In Friday night lights Season 1, Episode 16 "Black Eyes and Broken Hearts” Riggins help one of his teammate in a game because one of the opposing team’s player’s compresses Smash after he’s scored a touchdown to put the Panthers ahead. However, riggins had saw it and pushed the player now that’s what you call a team leader never let one of your teammate get into no mess. Throughout the series, Riggins is the one who stands up for people and helps people when it's really difficult for him to do so. And if he doesn't know how to help them, he finds somebody who does. Meaning that he will help many people out since he has that loving caring heart of his. Everybody may say Riggins is a bad guy that does not show his emotions on the outside but on the inside he will do whatever for the ones he cares about because that’s what he does he has that kindness in his heart for people that care about him.
As a kid the character parents had abandoned him and his brother Billy. Who would ever just up and leave their kids by their self no matter how old they are it’s just not right to do that to kids. In Friday Night Lights Season 1, Episode 14 “Upping the Ante" Tim goes to court to pay a speeding ticket and finds out he has to get a form signed by his dad. However, He doesn't even know where his dad lives now but he tracks him down to a place where he works. Our first impression of Billy is that he a person that sit around with his brother drink and get drunk a lot but he also a person that cares about his baby brother and want him to focus all about football. Tim riggins trusts his brother and loves him and would do anything for him and his brother is his only role model. Billy gave Tim a place to stay, food to eat and clothes to wear on his back; however, Billy completely took care of Tim his baby brother. Although, riggins relationship with his brother was not good he deiced to improve his relationship with brother since their father had walk out of their life so his brother is the only person he has now. Tim and his brother has focused on football and school so he can go to college to get a scholarship to play football since his brother show that riggins was receiving offer from school to play football.
Meanwhile, in Friday night lights Season 1, Episode 18 “Extended Families” riggins gets new neighbor which is a kid that talks mostly about football to him.

Riggins eventually warms to the kid because he starts to teach him about play football at that point you can see that he is a loving, caring person that likes kids. Although the little kid lived with his single mother he felt comfortable around Tim and Tim know how bo feels to not to have a father around the house so riggins treated bo miller like he was his own son he taught him things a man supposed to be teaching him. Even though Tim riggins behaves at times like having many problems throughout the series, by the end of the series we realize that he is a guy that wants to do positive things in his life to become a better

person.
