Search Coach (2016 TV series) on Amazon.

Coach was a proposed American television sitcom which was set to premiere on NBC during the 2015–16 television season. The series was to be a sequel to the ABC sitcom Coach (1989–1997)^[1] with original series star Craig T. Nelson reprising his role as Hayden Fox.

NBC had ordered an initial 13 episodes,^[1] which were scheduled to premiere in 2016.^{[citation needed]} On August 31, NBC cancelled the reboot.^[2]

Premise[edit]

The new series picks up 18 years later with Hayden Fox being called out of retirement to serve as an assistant coach to his and late wife Christine's grown son, Tim, who is starting up a new team as the head coach at an Ivy League university in Pennsylvania.

Production[edit]

Besides Craig T. Nelson, Bill Fagerbakke and Pam Stone are the other two cast members from the original series who will also reprise their roles as regulars, and there is a possibility that Jerry Van Dyke may return on a recurring basis as Luther Van Dam. Shelley Fabares, who played Hayden's wife Christine, will not be part of the new series due to substantial health issues which led to her character being written off as having died.^[3]

On August 17, 2015, Variety announced that Malcolm Barrett was cast as a series regular in the role of Waddell Percy, the president of the university where Hayden works as an assistant coach. Waddell is described as a nerdy but fiercely competitive schemer who wants to get his university on the map by building a football team from scratch.^[4]

On August 31, 2015, TVLine reported the series had been cancelled due to the pilot having "mixed results".^[5]
