The last two seasons wasn't quite as funny as the first six but I would take LMS over any network show.

I can watch reruns of that show and laugh as hard as the first time.

I totally agree. I didn’t care for the new Mandy and I miss Eve.

Seems like only yesterday they were announcing the end of “Home Improvement.”

Nine seasons is a good run, especially considering they got a second lease on life after ABC dumped them. I didn’t watch it (have not watched TV comedies for years), but all shows jump the shark, usually before nine years.

Perhaps Tim said, “No way I am appearing again with Leno, who now supports a child molestor”? ;-)

We get the first 6 seasons in re-runs here around suppertime, so I watch it often as I’m making supper. Always LOL funny.

I still watch and laugh at, ‘Home Improvement.’ Tim Allen is Comedy Gold.

I really love, ‘Galaxy Quest.’ What a hoot!

Probably going to be replaced by a trans muslim person of color who speaks Spanish and has a peanut allergy.

From what I can tell, Home Improvement only had eight seasons, so nine is certainly respectable.

“The last two seasons wasn’t quite as funny as the first six “

You got that right. The new Mandy is awful, they ruined Kyle and Boyd, and Kristin got embarrassingly large. Suprisingly they used the same writers and directors as in the earlier seasons.

One of the very few bright spots of entertainment shows on broadcast or cable.

That was a great movie and send up of Sci Fi conventions.

A funny short lived parody called Quark is on DVD.

Get Smart meets star trek, with an even smaller budget.

In her defense, I believe she had major pregnancy issues with endometriosis

The opening scene of episode 2 season 1 is some of the best TV ever.

Home Improvement was a classic.

The show lost a lot when the girls grew up, or in Kristin’s case out. The show’s comic premise was one guy in a house full of girls. Still one of my faves in an era when most network shows are unwatchable.

We have - finishing up our third time through the whole series, and my wife NEVER watches a series twice.

Hearing that Last Man Standing is coming to an end makes me very sad. I love that show. I wish Tim Allen and the rest of the cast the best of luck. They all were all great in their roles and will be missed.
