Not exactly the freshest premise for a comedy. But what Coach lacks in flash or originality, it makes up in steady execution. A winning cast and decent writing will do that. [28 Feb 1989, p.II-13]

John J. O'Connor

Coach is painlessly affable. Mr. Nelson, departing from his customary serious roles, reveals a nice sense of comic timing. The only thing missing is a smidgin of originality. Read full review

Monica Collins

Just so he doesn't bumble and fumble in the ''What does it take to be a dad?'' area - because that's been done before and done to death. [28 Feb 1989, p.3D]

Howard Rosenberg

May 17, 2015

The cast performs intelligently, but deserves better material. For Coach, not a championship season Read full review

Clifford Terry

If Coach were a college football team, it would be Columbia - before it broke the notorious losing streak. [28 Feb 1989, p.C5]

Craig T. NelsonCoach: Season 1 is an entertaining family sitcom that’s incredibly funny. The show follows head coach Hayden Fox of the Minnesota State Screaming Eagles as he struggles to lead the college football team to a winning season, and also to reconnect with his estranged daughter. Craig T. Nelson is perfectly cast as Coach Fox, and Jerry Van Dyke is hilarious as his comedic sidekick. And, despite following a lot of the usual sitcom tropes, the show has a lot of heart. Though it’s only a 13 episode season, Coach: Season 1 packs in plenty of laughs.… Expand
