Tim Allen Returns to TV with "Last Man Standing"


Tim Allen is finally back on TV!  "Last Man Standing" aired its pilot episode last October 11.  The sitcom evolves around Mike Baxter (played by Tim Allen), a marketing manager of an outdoor sporting goods store and the women of his life:  his wife Vanessa (Nancy Travis), Mandy (Molly Ephaim), Kristin (Alexandra Krosney), and Eve (Kaitlyn Dever).  It's Tim Taylor in another lifetime!  He remains to be the manly-man father coping with fatherhood but this time guided by wisdom of a grizzled outdoorsman.  Two episodes in I'd say that like Tim Taylor, who starred in a hit show Tool Time, Mike's internet persona will become viral.  The comedy is vintage Home Improvement---the way I like my comedy---and based on how it faired during it's pilot run, 13 million viewers share my sentiment.

Another show to look forward to weekly.  Welcome back Tim!
