Nominated for 16 Emmys and 4 Golden Globes, Coach delighted fans of all ages throughout its celebrated nine-season run. A single of the most underrated sitcoms of its era, the series covers the exploits of fictional Minnesota State Screaming Eagles college football coach Hayden Fox (Craig T. Nelson), the quintessential male chauvinist pig. But in contrast to several of his politically-incorrect brethren, Hayden has a heart of gold. Its this softer side that appeals to effective anchorwoman and girlfriend Christine Armstrong (Shelley Fabares). In the locker space, Hayden is joined by assistant coaches Luther Van Dam (Jerry Van Dyke) and Dauber Dybinski (Bill Fagerbakke), the excellent compliments to the coachs oftentimes sketchy logic. In between his estranged daughter Kelly (Clare Carey), her much less-than-manly boyfriend Stuart (Kris Kamm), nagging athletic director Howard Burleigh (Kenneth Kimmins), and ladies basketball coach Judy Watkins (Pam Stone), Hayden is usually dispensing sarcasm, trading barbs, or being aggravated by somebody.

Craig T. Nelson is brilliant in his portrayal of the opinionated and overbearing, yet multidimensional Hayden Fox. His onscreen rapport with co-star Shelley Fabares generates the believable illusion of a correct romance. But Coach boasts a cast replete with star power. The series is given a charming comic angle by the underappreciated and extended overdue breakout function of Jerry Van Dyke, brother to Dick Van Dyke, who plays the function of Luther Van Dam, the stuttering and kind-hearted bungling greatest buddy of Hayden. Jerry had a few guest appearances in the decades before Coach that had been absolute show stoppers (both The Dick Van Dyke Show and The Andy Griffith Show come to thoughts), but Coach place his talents to use full-time so all the planet could see just how funny this man really is. General, Coach is a entertaining and oftentimes brilliant comedy, and the 1st handful of seasons are by far the finest. So grab your self a chair and some official Minnesota State Screaming Eagle merchandise and appreciate watching 1 of the finest comedies of its time!
