This is a decent show, but I’d suggest renting it first, then deciding if it’s worth spending the money on it.
Sure the eps are funny, but how many times can you rewatch them?
With shows like Friends, Mad about You, and Everybody Loves Raymond, I can watch the same ep over and over and still be laughing.
With Home Improvement, one viewing of an ep, is plenty for me.
I do plan to rent it, when it comes out, because I’d like to see most of the eps,and the special features at least once, but I won’t be buying it.

I watched this show for a couple of episodes and actually liked it. Then I saw it was about a stupid guy whose wife, kids, neighbor and dog were smarter than he was. After that,I turned to Frazier. Now every new show(example King of Queens)is about the loveable but unfortunately very stupid husband who loves sports and knows cars but very little else. And,of course,the overbearing,obnoxious and smart wife who bails them out of problems a two year old would know to avoid. Case in point from this very show, Tim uses Jill’s driver’s liscense photo at an event that really matters to her because he forgot to get any other photos because he was too busy farting,scratching and watching football. It got to the point of being offensive to men that this was accepted as a fair and accurate representation of all men. How long do you think a show about a bunch of ridiculously stupid women would last? Let me answer that, about 1 episode before the cry of “discrimination against women” would begin. Note to t.v. producers ENUFF! Make a show about a family where the men have a little commen sense. Thank you for your time.

Home Improvement showcases the comedic talent of Tim Allen and his portrait of the well-meaning but insecure, harassed modern American male. Allen and his TV show sidekick Richard Karn are great, as is the neighbor Wilson.
However, all of this is tarnished and diminished by the razor-blade edged attitudes and jabs of Allen’s on-screen wife, played by Patricia Rishardson. Her character nearly ruins the entire season. While it is vital that a wife display personal strength and maintain her own identity, Richardson’s portrayl of Jill Patterson-Taylor as a wife that is constantly antagonizing, provoking, and humiliating her husband in order to show her independence is enough to make most men swear off marriage. Her constant demeaning of her husband’s interests and accomplishments simply adds insult to injury. Marriage is designed to be a partnership between friends and lovers, not a constant sparring match.
Sadly, while the production values are excellent, and the comedic talents of Tim Allen are fun, the constant arguing between the Taylor’s ruins most of it. It’s fun for a while, but the sharpness of the conflict wears a person out. Our family never finished watching the episodes.
