The show ran for five seasons from October 3, 2006, to February 9, 2011.
On August 24, 2007, during the Miss Teen USA 2007 pageant, Teegarden posed the question ("Recent polls have shown a fifth of Americans can't locate the U.S. on a world map. Why do you think this is?") that led to an infamous reply by contestant Caitlin Upton.[4]

In May 2011, she was named "TV Actress of the Year" by Young Hollywood Awards for her work on Friday Night Lights.[11] In June 2011, she signed on to co-star in the war drama Love and Honor, with Liam Hemsworth and Teresa Palmer.[12] Teegarden also played Abby in Beneath the Darkness.[13]
