Coach Season 5 Finale: The Memory

Well, I figure if there's one character who can stand up to Anger/Wrath, it's Wildflower. That boy is just plain out there, and Anger ain't gonna know what hit him. Well, he'll know it was a pointy stick, at least.

[@bendubz9000]

Just marathoned the GCU ready for the second half of the North Saga, and by my working out, the groups we had entering the North Saga are: - In the Void = Tom, Tohm, Chomas, Grandpa Cardinal, Jerry, Joe, Frederick, Joshua, Patrick, Allen, Memory (unnamed), Louis - In Danger/Are the Danger = Lommy, Wrath, Junior, Lenny, Captain, Wildflower - Remaining Mafia alive = Mack, Breck, Elijah, Raymond - Key alive characters = Gavin, Bruce, Springsteen, Danny, Rocky, Daniel - North Saga = NFC North, AFC North, Blood Demon, Ref - Deceased and current whereabouts unknown = Gus, Carl - Other = Diego, Oliver, Eddie, JB, Seb, Greg, Bart

Been watching since S01E01 Tom. Maybe don't watch every episode every week but I do watch them all eventually and am always impressed with your creativity, acting, screenwriting, editing, storytelling. You've been through a lot these past few years so to keep putting out this level of raw emotionality is really awesome.

[@snipermanguyz607]

Tom really put all of the fan favorite characters in a room and killed them all.

1:42 Just pointing out that the lyric for this section is "And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear," which fits amazingly well with the shot of the closet and the East Saga shirts. Overall the song choice in this episode was on-point. Not just "Space Oddity" in the beginning, but all the other background music.

[@ryeandfish8150]

In a way, it kinda makes sense. With the lions being the favorite to win the division, it would take all three of the other north teams to take them out. Don't know how much it affects the AFC North but I'm dying to see how it turns out

Very good and a strong setup for the North saga. This should contain the stakes/forward momentum that felt missing in the South Saga.

[@VkmSpouge]

Damn this was so interesting. The Saga characters continue dropping like flies, but very surprising to see Frederick organising a Bills Mafia hit on Memory. Blood Demon actually cares about Steve. Poor Wildflower, Lenny and the Captain (and Rocky will be there somewhere too) are in a lot of trouble. Maybe Wildflower can just throw a ton of weed at Anger and Lommy? Should chill out Anger and make Lommy start laughing. Anyway, time to head North, I feel a saga coming.

@@snipermanguyz607 i have. i really tried. i can see the quality and the effort. i think part of it is that i think it's supposed to be funny, but not always? it might just help to have some kind of overview of the arc of the storyline. all characters represent a team... yet some characters are related?.... and they all are supposed to be rooming together during the season. i'm wondering if it's a satire of a reality "jersey shore" show... relating to the ups and downs of the season. i really appreciate you even taking the time to respond with me. i'm a pretty faithful follower of tom and his "nfl scripted" spots are HI-LAR-I-OUS. just feel lost with the "coach" series. 😊

[@snipermanguyz607]

@@wotrwoking So, this is really a rough outline but in season one Tom gets a call from the packers which turns out to be tohm. The first season is a comedy and mainly just Madden gameplay, but at the end of the first season, Tohm reveals to Tom that he and Junior are not real and are a part of his imagination. Tom's mind is where the events of the sagas take place. In season two focuses on Chomas and it is revealed that some of the characters are emotions and know that they are part of Tom's mind, Chomas (Fear), Tohm (Love) Junior (Joy) etc. But some characters represent teams and not emotions, they do not know they are part of tom's mind and room together for various reasons (East - Family) (West - Reality TV show) (South - roommates) (North - Neighborhood). In the east saga a lot of minor character stuff happens which is really good but not too relevant to the overall story of coach. But the eagles guy (Rocky) gets possessed by Chomas, who is tom's embodiment of fear, in order to kill all of the east members to cause fear, which is the source of his power. In season three Tom goes missing in his mind and Tohm is trying to find him, but Tom is in the void, where all of the repressed emotions go (Fear, Sadness, Ambition) Ambition lets Lommy (Sadness) out into the real world with Junior who is the only one out there and Lommy depresses Junior. Ambition convinces tom to give up full control of the outside world to him because Ambition could help tom achieve his dreams. Tom says yes and Ambition 'kills' Chomas and Tohm. The West saga happens and a lot of minor stuff happens again but Louis (Rams fan) was working with Chomas, who created the reality tv show that this takes place in, but Chomas never shows up to help Louis because he is dead. Also I forgot to mention but back in season three Chomas reveals himself to the bills fan (Fredrick) and hints that nothing is real to him. Fredrick starts a 'mafia' about telling people that their lives are not real and convincing them to help him find Chomas. Some people in the West join him. Season four starts in beach which is like the afterlife where Chomas (and Tohm) make a deal with the blood demon (desire) in order for Tom to bring him back to life. Eventually the Blood Demon talks to Tom about how Ambition is dying and that he (desire) and Ambition used to be the same person before they split. He also reveals that anger, a very dangerous emotion who they have been keeping out of Tom's mind has finally come in. The deal goes through and Tohm is sent back to life. Also Junior is sent back to Tom's mind by Ambition In the South saga there is again just a bunch of minor stuff but a few more people join Fredrick's mafia. Season five starts with Anger and Lommy now working as a team and killing a bunch of people. Including four members of the Bills mafia, Fredrick, Josh, Patrick, and Allen. In the finale it is revealed the Memory is in control of the Beach and Tom goes to the beach to bring back Chomas at the cost of saving Ambition. But Fredrick looks at memory's tv, which is all of the episodes of coach and the sagas. He uses this information to send the blood demon away (Starting the North saga) and him and the other dead mafia members take control of the beach. Also Anger and Lommy kill Tohm and Junior. Wow that was really long but I think that is most of it, if you have any questions feel free to ask.
