Why did they end Friday night lights?

Answer 1

"Friday Night Lights" ended after its fifth season in 2011 primarily due to declining viewership and the show's original creator, Peter Berg, wanting to conclude the story on a high note. The series, based on the book and film of the same name, had a loyal fanbase but struggled with ratings in its later seasons. The decision allowed the creators to wrap up character arcs and storylines in a meaningful way, providing closure for fans.
