Coach - popular TV show with Craig T. Nelson comin... - Page 4

beamme: Good idea, (it would be interesting, with perhaps a few of Coach's 'dates', etc.), if Shelly doesn't want to play her original role. Hoping she does, though. Well, I'm now undecided, as your idea is really a good one. He could be divorced instead.........maybe Shelly making a few guest appearances as the 'ex'.

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

I am NOT a senior citizen and loved "Coach"! However, I did lose interest in the show, when they moved to Florida.

If Shelley can't or doesn't want to return to the show, maybe they will have Coach come back as a widower. I remember when Diana Hyland passed away IRL they had her character(Joan Bradford) on 8 is Enough die also.

As a widower, the show could have many new storylines.

scottie - what a great idea! The producers need to listen to you! I would rather see that if Shelley can't return, rather than his being divorced or having someone else play Christine. He'd be funny in the dating pool - like Tommy Lee Jones in Man of the House, one of our favorites! Maybe "Kelly" could be on once in a while too.

spud188 - that's so great! I'll bet your DH has lots of stories! Smile

If I were a TV series writer, I would definitely, always be reading these threads/posts/ideas!

Hi scottie: That's a good idea - I can't imagine somebody else besides Shelley in that role.

Coach was a funny show; and it's on Netflix, too. In fact, we watched a few episodes last week.

Craig T. Nelson is a riot; and I love him in Parenthood, too.

Hi Cakers. I should check out a few of those episodes. I have seen a couple of them that I just happened across and thought it was pretty good. Nelson is a hoot.

Interesting. Programming specifically intended for senior citizens. What comes next? The Return of Love Boat...

Classic tv shows have been perpetually in syndication so it has absolutely nothing to do with a viewer's age. That's how I've discovered some of them, seeing the shows now on the "retro" channels. They have a new audience from a different generation. My guess is that some of the re-airings have garnered good ratings, today, and that's why producers are interested in using them as inspiration for new shows. In my opinion, it's nice to see someone developing something other than more cheap reality programming.

Those retro TV series sure bring back lots of memories. A time when folks weren't busy texting, talking on phones all day long. What a difference.............
