Coach Marathon to Air After the Super Bowl on Sunday, January 26 Featuring Episode Starring Keyshawn Johnson
NEW YORK, Jan. 22 -- After watching Tampa Bay Bucs' wide-receiver Keyshawn Johnson in the Super Bowl, Nick at Nite will be paying tribute to one of the greatest moments in sitcom history -- the cameo appearance of Johnson on Coach. This memorable episode will air as part of the "Coach Super Bowl Marathon" on Sunday, January 26 (9:00-12:00 Midnight).
In this historic Coach episode, "A Player To Be Named Later" airing at 10:00pm ET/PT, The Orlando Breakers have the number-one-pick in the NFL draft, and Hayden (Craig T. Nelson) is overwhelmed by the pressure to choose a player who will turn the team around. As art often imitates life, Hayden contemplates
drafting Johnson (ironically a former #1 overall pick in real life).
Among the other classic Coach-episodes chosen for the Marathon include the Screaming Eagles' national championship triumph in the Pioneer Bowl, their thrilling victory in the Pineapple Bowl, and their controversial appearance in the Popcorn Bowl. As an added bonus, fans who can't get enough of ABC's Super
Bowl play-by-play broadcaster Al Michaels can admire his fine acting work in the "Pioneer Bowl" episode at 11:00pm ET/PT.
The episodes in Nick at Nite's "Coach Super Bowl Marathon" include the following:
9:00pm ET/PT
The Pineapple Bowl, Part I
The Screaming Eagles are going to the Pineapple Bowl and Hayden's mentor, Jake "The Snake" Connelly, shows up to get his support...and his plays.
When Hayden finds out that his team is playing against Connelly's team in the Pineapple Bowl, he feels that Jake tricked him into thinking that he was visiting for friendship.
9:30pm ET/PT
The Pineapple Bowl, Part II
After being out-foxed by his mentor and opposition for the Pineapple Bowl, Jake "The Snake" Connelly, Hayden puts the team on a rigorous schedule as soon as their plane hits Hawaii. Easing up on the team by allowing them to go to the evening luau, Hayden gets another surprise when quarterback,
Bo Whitley, falls in complaint of back pains meaning that he cannot play in the big game. With Bo watching from the sidelines and 1:40 minutes left on the clock during the game, Bo rises from the wheelchair and leads the Eagles to a victory. The Fox finally outwits the Snake.
