"Does anybody know what time it is???"
That's right - time to talk about Home Improvement - one of the greatest things to have ever come from the US, and was made by the same guys who did Boy Meets World (genious again)!

There's no point in asking if you've never heard of/watched an episode of this show as there's no-one out there like it - not even on Mars!
So here's a place where we can all relive the memories of Tim "the Tool Man" Taylor and co., and also talk about the *Brand New* episodes currently being shown on the Disney Channel dailly at 10pm.

So... what did you like best about the show??
Were you a fan of Tim and his accident-prone ways? Or was it the pure comedy that came from Tim Allen himself - especially when put next to Al infront of a TV audience!

Or were you a female viewer, dreaming of Randy, Brad, and maybe even WILSON night-after-night!???

Whatever it was, nothing has come close to the quality entertainment found in a single episode of Home Improvement. So, which episode's your favourtie from this on-going show of 10 years ago??

Let's have a big Tim Taylor style "Ho ho ho!" from everyone! :)

Yeah, I agree with you.

The first few series' had quite a lot of hits, but as everything got older and we could basically predict what was gunna happen, it started to turn into a miss. It's good that it has finally ended now, it wouldn't survive otherwise.

Then again, it wouldn't have been the same without those Al-Tim arguments on Tool Time...

And without Tim..... :S

I think Home Improvement was a bit hit-and-miss sometimes, an episode could be either really funny, or just barely raise a smile. Some of the later episodes suffered from a real lack of originality, many of the same jokes being reworked to no real effect.

Oh there not new, I saw that Buzz lightyear one months ago. The guy who plays Randy played Simba in Lion King, theres a joke about that in that episode too I think. I might be thinking of another one but I think it's in the episode where they look after the little girl.

Yeah, like all good shows it got worse after time had it's effect.

But it has still remained an unbeatable show for it's pure quality, and it's reputation has recieved no real harm what-so-ever!

Heh, last night, Tim ended up arguing with a Buzz Lightyear toy that was saying "I am Buzz Lightyear!!" "No... I am Buzz Lightyear!"

Great stuff! :D

I didn't even realise that it was still about. I found that as the years went on the jokes were less funny and the kids went from cute to boring.
I may be wrong and if I had sky then I check out the new stuff

Yep, apparently so!

I have my suspissions though.... they may just be episodes that were recorded last year or the year before and may only be getting the chance to be broadcast over here now. I'm sure this'll be the last series anyway...

Watch the episodes if you have Sky, they're good! :)

I never really used to watch it much when I was younger and it first started, but i've really got into it after a few nights of boredom infront of the TV during the last few weeks.

I've always liked how they ALWAYS manage to somehow hide Wilson's face.
