  1. Weird, because Kat Dennings is wildly unfunny and the previews being shoved down our throats looked about as entertaining as a root canal.

  2. Wild that he’s been shilling the same loud, boorish, unfunny shit for 30+ years and it keeps getting lapped up.

    I would 100% believe that this POS sitcom is his worst yet.

  3. Surprised Pikachu face

    One-note, unfunny actor makes a one-note, unfunny comedy? Who could have seen this coming?

  4. Its sad he was such a big, positive part of my childhood to now be such a negative part of my adulthood.

  5. The thing that made Home Improvement so enjoyable is that often times, he was the butt if the joke. In his recent sitcoms he’s a know-it-all and it’s always the damn youths that are wrong. He can’t bare to make fun of himself anymore

  6. All the comments on YouTube are positive. All the comments on Reddit are negative. I usually talk shit on Reddit too but honestly, this show don’t look too bad. Multi-cams are great to watch while you eat.

  7. I’d been seeing so many commercials for that shit and have no idea how it even got greenlit. Kat Dennings is hot, but that’s basically all she has going for her. And Tim Allen is notoriously a huge douchebag. Who is that show even for?

  8. Drug mule snitch Tim Allen? Is that who we’re talking about?

  9. It’s exactly what we would expect from him.

    No more, no less.

  10. Put Kat Dennings in something tight and watch it run for years.

  11. Can’t stand Tim Allen. Only Galaxy Quest was good enough to overcome his presence. Barely.

  12. Apparently a big part of this is also making sure the daughter is properly made fun of for not following her father’s advice when she was younger.

    Wonder which demo they’re chasing.

  13. Isn’t the premise “dad loves cars more than his own daughter”? I’m sure that will go well

  14. Sounds like the old sitcom, Thunder Alley but, with Tim playing the Ed Asner role.

    ‘The story involved Bobbi returning to her old hometown, after a divorce to live with her father. In tow were her three children: Claudine (Kelly Vint); Jenny (Lindsay Felton); and Harry (Haley Joel Osment). The new family quintet lived in Gil’s home above Thunder Alley, the specialty racing garage Gil operated. Rounding out the cast was Gil’s dim-witted mechanic sidekick, Leland DuParte (Jim Beaver). ‘

  15. Every commercial I see for this just makes me ask “how the fuck does this guy keep getting work?”

  16. He whined that Last Man Standing was a target because it leaned conservative. He never considered that it was a shit spin off of Home Improvement with three daughters instead of three sons. It wasn’t funny at all. Except maybe Hector Elizando, who is great in everything he does

  17. Talk about the same character in every show. I just imagine he’s still playing Tim the tool man Taylor, and he’s on his fourth divorce and this is one of his illegitimate children.

  18. Waiting for the inevitable crossover episode with Reba’s retread.

  19. That fucking guy has not done anything worth watching since HI. Even that is practically unwatchable now. Just retire bro. Nobody likes you anymore.

  20. How many times is he going to recreate the same show?

    Home Improvement was lightening in a bottle for the time period and well written/good supporting cast.

    He just needs to retire to MI and fan girl over Trump.

  21. Idk who needs to hear this but there has only been one episode how bout you let it breathe a little bit

  22. It’s like poor Wilson spent all those years teaching him to be decent for nothing.

  23. Critics are calling everything from s%@t to f$*&ing s%*t.

  24. He’s a washed up, right wing, stain on comedy these days.

  25. So I only saw a poster for this, and I’m just glad that Kat is the daughter and not the wife. You never know with these sitcoms. Still not watching, but was happy to learn that.

  26. I actually liked his other show, but his obvious grumpy old republican character did get old fast. But the other actors did a good job making it funny.

  27. Well take a wild guess as to the age group of people that watch this crap lol

  28. Dude will always be a narc. MAGA folks love him though.
