    Loved Home Improvement, Last Man Standing, Toy Story etc but my favorite thing Tim ever did was Galaxy Quest. It's pure genius and he's amazing in it. And playing with that cast and not being overshadowed is impressive.

      That scene where he’s forced to say “we lied” to Mathesar? That’s his best moment as an actor, full stop, IMO.

      ​@@psifla99it only occurred to me recently just how good he is in that film: the scene where he's in the bathroom, reacting to the caustic teens; the dejected state he plays in the scene after. Really good.

    Tim Allen is a comic genius.
    I loved his films, The Santa Claus, Galaxy Quest, all the Toy Story films, For Richer or Poorer & Wild Hogs & The Shaggy Dog.
    I found this interview to be the most interesting of all the series so far.
    Home improvement & Last Man Standing are funny as hell.

    People that don’t forget about Tim Allen because he first started way before home improvement. He did the Comedy Central and I believe it was HBO as well. Back in the day standup comedy tour. Men are pigs, more power, and other ones like that I’m sure you could find them on UA-cam get ready to have a box of Kleenex with you and laugh until you can’t laugh anymore because it’s that funny.

    What got me hooked on HI was one episode: Before the parents both left for a school thing after work from their home, the last minutes were busy with them turning the lights off on the entire set before they left and perhaps even locking the door. No dialogue and no loughs. Thought that nailed it!

      @@Jaydogg222 I'm sorry--but your question isnt material to the facts I wrote. I dont like him because he's Mr. Conservative yet in his real life, he's Timothy Dick (real name) who sold cocaine to college kids an when caught--ratted out several people so he could get a reduced sentence. People refer to people who do such things as "RATS" and I agree--I feel he is a rat...but worse--what MANY on the right are..a HYPOCRITE. So, me being "hurt" somehow? Matter not...but I think I get your "joke"......To be honest--It's really not a very funny reply. But,I guess when you have no real argument to counter with you go straight to Ad Hoc....what is called a "Logic fallacy" ....Ad hoc fallacy occurs when someone comes up with a rationale to dismiss the counter-evidence to their claim in a bid to protect it. And also you tried to use an Ad Hominem style of argument...those occur when someone has no real argument back on something being debated so they resort to trying to get personal--like you did. (I just graduated from college and attend law school; soooooooo this is how I learned of these things. In reasoning and critical thinking classes. Perhaps you should look into taking some course)
