Coach (DVD) Review
Nominated for 16 Emmys and 4 Golden Globes- Coach delighted fans of all ages during its celebrated nine-season run. One of the most underrated sitcoms of its era- the series covers the exploits of Contd...
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 creates the believable illusion of a true romance. But Coach boasts a cast replete with star power. The series is given a charming comic angle by the underappreciated and long overdue breakout role of Jerry Van Dyke- brother to Dick Van Dyke- who plays the role of Luther Van Dam- the stuttering and kind-hearted bungling best friend of Hayden. Jerry had a few guest appearances in the decades before Coach that were absolute show stoppers (both The Dick Van Dyke Show and The Andy Griffith Show come to mind)- but Coach put his talents to use full-time so all the world could see just how funny this man really is. Overall- Coach is a fun and oftentimes brilliant comedy- and the first few seasons are by far the best. So grab yourself a chair and some official Minnesota State Screaming Eagle merchandise and enjoy watching one of the best comedies of its time…!
The Coach (Season 1) DVD features a number of hilarious episodes including the season premiere “Kelly and the Professor” in which Hayden learns that his daughter Kelly- a student at Minnesota State- recently went out on a date with a professor. The revelation drives Hayden crazy- and he’ll go to any lengths to uncover the identity of the guilty faculty member… Other notable episodes from season one include “I’m in Love with a Boy Named Stuart” in which Hayden is introduced to Kelly’s new boyfriend- Stuart- his future arch-nemesis- and “I’m Sorry I Told You My Wife Was Dead” in which Hayden compromises his integrity in an effort to coerce a widow into handing over the massive donation her dead husband had promised the Minnesota State football program.
