Your prayers have finally been answered: ‘90s sitcom Coach returning for a brand new season. Deadline reports that NBC has given a straight-to-series 13-episode order to the show, which originally ran on ABC from 1989-1997. Craig T. Nelson is attached to reprise his role, and original Coach creator Barry Kemp will write and co-executive produce with Nelson. The revamped series will be set in present day and follow Coach Hayden Fox as he’s “called back to become assistant coach to his own grown son, who is the new head coach at an Ivy league school in Pennsylvania that is just starting up a new team.” Like the original series, the new Coach will be multi-cam. The project joins a pile of recently announced/produced sequels to ‘90s television shows like Boy Meets World, The X-Files, and Twin Peaks.
