Back in 1989, "Coach" made a star out of Craig T. Nelson, as he played the stern but kind title role of Hayden Fox in a performance that earned him an Emmy Award in 1992, and he was set to reprise the role in the "Coach" reboot 2015, but now it seems this isn't happening at all.
There's a new wave of reboots going on, from the highly hyped "Full House" Netflix one all the way to Fox's "X-Files" sequel, as well as even bringing back David Lynch's "Twin Peaks" - but at least the "Coach" reboot 2015 is now looking for a new home after NBC scraped it earlier this week.
Deadline reports that after NBC ordered the "Coach" reboot 2015 with a straight-to-series order of 13 episodes last spring, they've now backed down and scraped the project after only one of the episodes, the pilot, has been filmed.
There have reportedly been a good number of creative differences over the course the "Coach" reboot 2015 was taking, so NBC decided to part ways from the project, though that doesn't mean it won't be happening after all, as the show's currently shopping for a new network.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the "Coach" reboot 2015 is only the latest series to have issues in the 2015-2016 lineup, as there have already been four different shows changing showrunners, three that have replaced their titles and many others that have had to recast in the past few months.
The Daily Mail reports that Nelson, who has been working on NBC for the past six years on "Parenthood," will be paid for all 13 episodes all the same, while the rest of the cast (including Andrew Ridings as Nelson's son and original "Coach" cast member Bill Fagerbakke) will only be paid for the filmed pilot.
Many were doubting how successful the "Coach" reboot 2015 would be, finding the concept "dated," but it's still unknown whether someone else will pick it up.
