Home Improvement

was a cultural phenomenon that ran from 1991 to 1999, and was one of the most-watched television programs in the entire country. The show presented by Tim Taylor in the Home Improvement shooting script was still called Hammer Time when the first pilot with Frances Fisher was filmed in April 1991.Fisher, mostly known as a dramatic actress, was well-qualified for the co-starring role, but was seen by the studio audience as not comical enough, and too serious in her line delivery. The producers tried to work with Fisher on the stage adaptation of the sitcom, but soon after the pilot finished post-production, they decided to recast it.It's safe to say that ABC's comedy Home Improvement was one of the key parts of the 90s.

Not only did it literally air from 1991 to 1999, but throughout its eight seasons, it was one of the most-watched television programs in the entire country. After his Home Improvement days, Richardson continued to appear in successful television shows including Strong Medicine, The West Win, and several television movies, including the recent A Very Vintage Christmas.Each episode includes Tim's home improvement program, called Tool Time, a meta-program or program within a program. This popular mantra wouldn't be pronounced after the seventh season of Home Improvement, until Tim's last line in the series finale. In Germany, Home Improvement aired on ARD, RTL, VOX, and replays are currently shown on private channels RTL II and Super RTL.The 25-disc collection includes all 204 episodes of the series, as well as all the special features contained in the previously released seasonal sets; comes in a special collectible package, a home improvement toolbox with a Binford All-In-One Tool measuring tape.

It's clear that Home Improvement would be right at home on Disney+, clean and familiar, and now that the suit with Wind Dancer is sorted out, it seems like it's only a matter of time before it's added to the streamer's ever-deepening catalog.It's easy to imagine that Disney, having learned a thing or two from that fiasco, wants to avoid annoying Home Improvement fans in the same way. Although it's been more than two decades since Home Improvement aired, it has maintained its loyal fan base thanks to its incredible cast and endearing sense of humor.
