Adrienne is very into films and she enjoys a bit of everything: from superhero films to heartbreaking dramas, to low-budget horror films. Every time she manages to commit to a TV show without getting bored, an angel gets its wings.
When she's not writing, you can find her trying to learn a new language, watching hockey go Avs! Breakfast food is life and coffee is what makes the world go round. It was great. Wayans' surprise disappearance left many a Coach fan pondering not only why the character didn't return for the series premiere, but why the character was not recast, and instead simply replaced. Luckily, that question has finally been answered. Here's the real reason Coach left New Girl.
To be clear, it's far from uncommon for characters to be written off their shows between a series' pilot episode and a show's official network premiere. There are many reasons this can happen: a character might not test well, a show might be retooled en route to getting greenlit for series, or an actor may simply choose not to commit to the project past the pilot phase. Turns out, none of those common reasons are why Damon Wayans, Jr.
Turns out that the real reason Coach left New Girl is because Wayans was very much in demand at the time. As it happens, that series spent its inaugural season largely trying to find its footing, and was not expected to receive a second season order. Assuming he had some free time ahead, Wayans quickly lined up his gig on New Girl , and proceeded to shoot the pilot episode. Seems they also had their cast under contract, so Wayans was obligated to forge ahead on that series instead.
Nick is the only one to have lived with a woman before, and he points out that they smell nice, but their mood changes without warning.
Coach initially says no to letting Jess move in, admitting that he wants to be able to come home after work, sit on his couch, and let his "beans" hang out. He and Schmidt force Nick to cast the deciding vote, with Schmidt calling Nick weak when it's clear that Nick refuses to be the tiebreaker, so Schmidt instead makes an executive decision and declares that "She's in. A week after Jess moves in, she's still depressed and crying on the couch, watching Dirty Dancing on repeat.
Coach and Schmidt return to the loft after a workout, and Coach attempts to get her out of her funk by demanding, firmly, that she "Stop it. He invites her out with the guys after work to get her a rebound, and she agrees, freaking out Coach, Nick, and Schmidt when she makes up a theme song for herself on the spot. While Jess curls her hair, getting ready for her night out with the guys, Coach walks into her bedroom with a basketball, with which he accidentally crushes a ceramic pot on her desk.
He apologizes for his clumsiness and reveals that his boss says he doesn't know how to talk to women. He thinks it's ridiculous, but a quick flash to him screaming at a woman at the gym , who tearfully tells him that he's mean, suggests otherwise, so he asks her for some advice. Jess is happy to and recommends that he try to think of things that women like to talk about. He immediately settles on shopping and asks Jess if she likes it.
She does and reveals that the other day she bought a pair of jeggings, but Coach is completely uninterested and screams, "Who cares?! At Nick's bar that night, Schmidt is offering Jess advice on picking up a rebound and trying to get her to smile in an actually attractive way. It's not working, and Coach reverts to his simplistic way of communicating with women to get her to stop.
Nonetheless, he, too, is supportive of her pursuit of a rebound to get over her ex-boyfriend, Spencer. As Jess goes to talk to a cute guy at the bar, Schmidt and Coach are approached by two of Schmidt's douchey friends, Benjamin and Peter , whom Coach dislikes. When Benjamin attempts a friendly greeting, Coach excuses himself with a blunt, "Don't talk to me," before the two men tease Schmidt about the fact that he's not on the guest list for an annual charity event that he's desperate to attend.
Later that night, Peter hits on Jess, and Schmidt and Coach look on proudly as she appears to be doing well in her search for a rebound. Benjamin approaches Schmidt to let him know that it's better he not attend the party, for it means more women for him, and Schmidt begs Coach to hold him back.
Uninterested in the confrontation, Coach refuses, only to have Nick reveal that they're going to the party because he texted his ex-girlfriend Caroline - the reason the guys had always gone to the event. Just then, Jess walks up to reveal that she's scored a rebound date with Peter - dinner, with food - and she gets a high five from Coach.
As Jess walks away, they laugh when they discover that Jess has tucked her shirt into her underpants. When the guys meet Jess' best friend, Cece, for the first time, they are all somewhat dumbstruck by her beauty.
Coach is no exception, but Schmidt clearly likes her best. Things get awkward quickly as Schmidt removes his shirt for her, and Nick and Coach watch him, disturbed, as he gets progressively more disgusting. After Cece walks into Jess' bedroom to encourage her to get ready for her rebound date, they trade outfits and walk into the living room.
Jess looks nice in Cece's little black dress, and Coach offers a simple, yet supportive "Wow! Jess smiles graciously, but immediately starts crazy dancing, reminding the guys that Jess is still Jess.
