Fresh off his final appearance on CBS’ THE GOOD WIFE, comes news that FNL alum SCOTT PORTER has joined the cast of the CW’s, HART OF DIXIE. He joins former OC star RACHEL BILSON in the hour “dramedy” about a New York City doctor (Bilson) who inherits a medical practice in a sleepy southern town. Porter plays George Tucker, a lifelong resident of the town who develops a strong connection with the new doc. Bilson, who plays Zoe Hart, has a rival in the medical practice whose daughter…surprise…is engaged to George Tucker. Got all that? Wow! The show is in pre-production and may find its way onto the network’s fall schedule. Bid on Scott Porter’s FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS wardrobe and prop items at vipfanauctions.com

Made in the shades

Arnold Schwarzenegger in The Terminator. Michael Chiklis in The Shield. Wesley Snipes in Blade. There are few wardrobe items that are as simultaneously subtle, defining and cool as a character’s trademark shades, and the pair of sunglasses Coach Taylor sported on the field in numerous episodes of Friday Night Lights are now available to the highest bidder. Fans of the coach can also bid on his Texas coaching award, which was seen on his desk through multiple seasons of FNL. VIP Fan Auctions is accepting bids on these unique pieces of TV memorabilia until May 5.

Who needs four?

This may be the only time you want to buy tickets to a football game that has already been played. VIP Fan Auctions is offering a set of four tickets to the Texas State Championship game between the Dillon Panthers and the West Cambria Mustangs from the first season of Friday Night Lights. It’s one of several sets of tickets created by the show’s prop department for the series, and each features the team helmets, a $5.00 face value and a guaranteed conversation starter! The auction ends May 5. Check out the details here.

Jersey boy

Between his overbearing dad, being the youngest kid on the team and trying to remain true to his values while in the spotlight, it’s not easy being Panthers quarterback J.D. McCoy. Of course, it’s not difficult to take home the freshman starter’s #12 jersey. VIP Fan Auctions is offering to the highest bidder the jersey that McCoy (played by Jeremy Sumpter) wore on-screen as he earned the starting job over Matt Saracen and led the Panthers to numerous victories. The auction ends May 5, so place your bid today.

AIMEE TEEGARDEN is one busy lady. Her television series, FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS, has just begun its farewell season. She had a role in the big screen horror flick, SCREAM 4, which hit theaters earlier this month. Friday (naturally…) she premieres in Disney’s PROM, where her character, Nova, is out to land a date to high school’s most important dance. The 21-year-old actress is a hot commodity these days. She credits her role as Julie Taylor, the daughter of a Texas high school football coach and a high school principal, as a big reason why. As a freshman at Burleson University, Julie is trying to find her way in a place far different than Dillon, Texas. In last week’s episode, Julie and her History TA seem to be quite smitten with each other. Uh-oh…sounds like trouble. Hey, what’s MATT SARACEN up to, anyway?
