Home Improvement: The Complete First Season

Home Improvement: The Complete Second Season
Cast: Tim Allen, Patricia Richardson, Earl Hindman, Taran Noah Smith, Jonathan
Studio: Disney
Rating: 7.5/10

CORPORATE LINE: HOME IMPROVEMENT profiles Tim Taylor (Tim Allen), an average father raising three kids with his aspiring psychologist wife, Jill (Patricia Richardson). When not engaged in domestic squabbles, Tim hosts a home improvement show called “Tool Time.” Through “Tool Time,” HOME IMPROVEMENT pokes fun of the seemingly perfect, male problem solvers featured in TV home improvement programs. Tim is not the quintessential fix-it man and he is all thumbs when completing projects around the house. Former stand-up comic Tim Allen mastered this fallible and yet lovable husband and father in this popular sitcom. In this season, Pamela Anderson stars as Lisa, the attractive female sidekick on “Tool Time.”

THE SHOW: It was hard not to love Tim Allen and his clumsy character Tim Taylor. Allen made home improvement cool—even when he was screwing it up. The first season includes a total of 24 episodes!

Some of the best episodes include:
“Yule Better Watch Out” – Brad and Randy tell Mark Santa is dead and Tim competes in a Christmas light contest.
“Unchained Malady” – Tim decides that he will throw away a chain letter and it comes back to haunt him.
“Bubble, Bubble, Toil and Trouble” – Tim puts a new sink into their bathroom and all you-know-what breaks loose.
“Nothing More Than Feelings” – Tim tells his audience that Jill drove with the oil light on and Jill isn’t so happy about it—which lends itself to laughs.
“Off Sides” – Tim hires a magician to baby-sit the kids—oops.

FRANKLY: How many of us still watch the show in syndication? There were plenty of classic episodes during the first season that make this a must buy. Instead of trying to Tivo the show or worrying about missing those treasured episodes you can have it to own.
