TV Show returning
That's an odd one to bring back.

While the new series will put the focus on Hayden and his son, sources indicate it's unlikely that any other original castmembers will return, with the role of the wife still unclear given that there is not yet a script after NBC bought the comedy based on its pitch.
Deadline reports that the reboot has been cancelled, after a filmed pilot episode was deemed “dated” by those who saw it. Star Craig T. Nelson will reportedly still be paid for NBC’s full 13-episode order, while the rest of the cast will be paid for the pilot episode alone. Universal TV, which was producing the series, will be able to shop it elsewhere—including, theoretically, ABC, where Coach originally aired. Or maybe Netflix wants a friend for its own 90s revival, Fuller House?
