Después de ser expulsado de la NCAA por lanzarle una silla al árbitro, Marvyn Korn, un entrenador de baloncesto masculino, empieza a trabajar en Westbrook, un elitista colegio de chicas y su única opción para salvar lo que queda de su carrera y reputación. Al principio, Marvyn enfoca su nuevo empleo como un alto en el camino de su vuelta al baloncesto universitario. Además, las chicas no se toman en serio el equipo. El impasible Marvyn pronto descubre que las adolescentes son seres humanos complejos, que no solo viven de mano dura y días de entrenamiento doble, sino que necesitan a alguien que las oriente y se preocupe por ellas. Mientras aprende a forjar vínculos con sus jugadoras y a ser más empático, el entrenador se empieza a convertir en la persona que siempre ha querido ser y en el padre que nunca tuvo. Las chicas, por su parte, aprenden a tomarse más en serio a sí mismas, a dar la calidad que Marvyn exige y a encontrar su lugar, tanto dentro como fuera de la cancha.
Evening Shade is an American sitcom television series that aired on CBS from 1990 to 1994. The series stars Burt Reynolds as Wood Newton, an ex-professional football player for the Pittsburgh Steelers, who returns to rural Evening Shade, Arkansas to coach a high school football team with a long losing streak. Reynolds personally requested to use the Steelers as his former team because he is a fan.
The general theme of the show is the appeal of small town life. Episodes ended with a closing narration by Ossie Davis summing up the events of the episode, always closing with "... in a place called Evening Shade." The show's final episode saw the guest appearances of Willie Nelson and Buzz Aldrin as escaped convicts on the run from authorities, the final scene being a spectacular shoot-out reminiscent of the final scene of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.
The opening segment included clips from around Arkansas, including the famous McClard's Bar-be-que, which is situated on Albert Pike Blvd. and South Patterson St. in Hot Springs National Park.
