About Evening Shade
Evening Shade follows Wood Newton, a former pro player coaching a struggling high school team while raising a family. The series aired from September 1990 to May 1994 on CBS on Mondays, created by Linda Bloodworth Thomason with Burt Reynolds in the lead. The plot mixes small town football with home life and law office comedy across four steady seasons.
All four seasons form one continuous town run with a stable cast including Marilu Henner and Ossie Davis. Watch seasons one through four in broadcast order for the full 98 episode arc. There are no films or revivals beyond the 1994 finale, so the CBS run is the complete path from first practice to the closing game.
Good to know
Watch seasons one through four in broadcast order, since the team record and family beats build year to year. The show is episodic but rewards steady viewing for town regulars and running jokes. Treat the run as a closed four season story with no extra entries. The 98 episode CBS set from 1990 to 1994 is complete. Broadcast order keeps team arcs and family beats clear across the four seasons.
