In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Ariella Broughton
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

This isn't my favorite show of all time but it's one of those I never forgot. The reason this show works is cause of the ensemble cast. Especially Craig T. nelson and Jerry Van Dyke.What makes this work is Craig T. Nelson. He's almost the "Archie Bunker" of the 90's...without the racial part. He's a Neanderthal type who thinks guys are the Kings and football guys rule all and women are all wrong. The fun part is, you get to see all his flaws. He's insecure and self conscious about his relationship with his girlfriend...basically he's like all guys. That's why this show works, cause he's like every guy.With every show there's a "Barney Fife" type character and in this show it's no different. Here you find, Jerry van Dyke. You can thank casting for putting him in this role cause it was a role of a lifetime. He plays the absolute bumbling old assistant football coach who is clueless about almost everything and is nuts about Elvis. Again, a lot of guys are like this so it's easy to see why this show last for 8 years. For reference on his character, watch the "Sweeties Cereal" episode.This show tries to show you the life of a football coach but it's really about a simple guy who happens to be a football coach who's a little outdated in his way of thinking. Trust me, watch this show and laugh. I always do.

"COACH," in my opinion, is an absolute ABC classic! I haven't seen every episode, but I still enjoyed it. There are many episodes that I enjoyed. One of them was where Hayden (Craig T. Nelson) and Christine (Shelley Fabares) faced wedding mishaps. If you want to know why, you'll have to have seen it for yourself. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that everyone always gave a good performance, the production design was spectacular, the costumes were well-designed, and the writing was always very strong. In conclusion, even though it can be seen in syndication now, I strongly recommend you catch it just in case it goes off the air for good.

Coach Hayden Fox(Craig T. Nelson) and his friends Luther Van Dam(Jerry Van Dyke) and Michael 'Dauber' Dybinski(Bill Fagerbakke) try to lead the Screaming Eagles to greatness while keeping his relationship with Christine Armstrong intact.This is a hilarious show about football and life. I loved the episodes where Luther lost his bird, Luther owns "Turtle World", Dauber loses the playbook, and the episode where Hayden lets Luther get some of the media's attention.I watch this every weekday morning on TBS. I wished this show came out on DVD. A must watch for anybody who likes to laugh or likes football.

This show was particularly good when the show was based in Minnesota. When it went to Florida, it went downhill.
