Cheers (TV Series) And Coachie Makes Three (1984) User Reviews

Coach as Pest

[Hitchcoc · 8/10 · 14 August 2019]

Coach, who is alone, begins to hang out with Sam and Diane, to a fault. He shows up, preventing them from having any intimacy. But the two of them don't have the guts to tell him to buzz off. So the option becomes to get him a girlfriend. At the beginning, however, is a great scene as two women set their sights on Cliff and Norm. Don't miss it.

And Coachie Makes Three (#2.15)

Because Coach is alone he keeps on coming to hang out with Sam and Diane. They want to have more alone time but don't have the guts to tell him. So they make a blind date, it seems to go very well but Coach doesn't get the point of it and sends Katheryn home to stay with Diane and Sam, so they have to finally tell it how it is.

Coach episodes are always good because there is so much Coach in them. How about the part where he can't remember the name of the woman he likes and the gang keeps on leaving the bar with updated information? I thought that was hilarious.

So were the part of him talking to Katheryn about the bank, one can see they really hit it off there even though it takes Coach a bit longer to realize it, as usual!

Oh Coach, My Coach!

I've always said that "The Coach" it's my favorite character of "Cheers" and maybe one of my favorite characters of all sitcoms, I think his humor is so unique and spot on, it kind of has a "brand" of funny to it. It's a mix of don't understanding things with being too literal about them, it's so good. Of course this is one episode wich I enjoyed immensly, mostly because it focuses on Coach, the highlights for me are however Norm and Cliff trying to pick up girls (one of the best pre-intro scenes) , also Norm getting into the bar and not being able to actually step ahead until someone screams "Norm!" even thought, he has just entered with the only two people there, and also the Diane sitting on Coach's lap, just a funny episode all around! 8/10 ******** Peter Shelby

Pure Coach

Ernie Pantusso is a man of simple pleasures. He loves nothing more than watching a ball game or movie (MITCHUM!) with his buddies. As well, except for an occasional loss of temper he doesn't have a malicious bone in his body. This makes him an ideal friend, but a lousy wingman.

Sam and Diane are getting into a serious phase of their relationship, but Coach keeps finding reasons to butt in. It's another Sitcom 101 plot, but as with everything else the Cheers crew does it so damn well.

The show kicks off with a bizarre cold opening involving Norm and Cliff that continues into the episode proper. Then there's the Abbott-and-Costello inspired interplay when Coach knocks on Sam's door. The funniest bit is when the whole bar tries to figure out the name of Coach's crush at the bank DIANE: *that's* my friend). Norm declining to enter the bar until Sam and Diane shout "NORM" ("Norman"). Sam and Diane trying to deflect blame/credit for fixing Coach up with Katherine. This could have been a rote episode, but instead it's an all timer.
