In K&B's "all-tool band", his instrument is a grinder run over an empty oil drum. Before Lillian's first appearance, she was joked at by Tim as being largely overweight, though in her first appearance, Lillian has become thin again, having used Tim's jokes on Tool Time as motivation.

End of series
As the clock started to run out on "Home Improvement," things got a bit corrosive and explosive in the show's three part finale "The Long and Winding Road." A new producer of "Tool Time” wanted to spice things up, put the tools down and do a talk-only program. Tim's buddy Harry owns a hardware store, which is a place where Mr. Tool Time enjoys his off time. However, it's not usually fun when Harry's wife Delores is around to bust his chops, argue with him over everything, and giving him "The Look." Earlier this year, Tim Allen paid tribute to Wilson on his other hit sitcom "Last Man Standing," where his character Mike Baxter meets his old one, Tim Taylor. "Tool Time" was the home improvement show within the show "Home Improvement," and both shows made a star out of Tim Allen, an actress out of Pamela Anderson, a mystery out of what Earl Hindman's face actually looked like anda video game for Super Nintendo.

The catalyst for the series' name change was to represent the aspect of fixing problems within the family and home life, as well as the use of mechanics and tools. Once the second phase of the pilot was produced, with all the actors that made the final cut into the series , Tim Taylor's Hammer Time became Tool Time. Martin "Marty" Taylor (William O'Leary) – Marty is Tim's youngest brother by ten years. As their father died when Marty was just one year old, Tim is the closest thing he knows to a father. Marty was often picked on by his older brothers, much as Mark is by Brad and Randy.

When Tim brought Brad onto Tool Time, Randy immediately called it a stupid show and acted hateful towards Tim and Brad. Although initially sharing mostly the same interests as Brad and his father, throughout his adolescence Randy became very conscious about the environment and civil rights and became a vegetarian in later seasons. He wrote for the school newspaper, where he concentrated on social and political issues, including criticizing Binford for its pollution record, which led to a fierce disagreement with Tim and Tim's boss. Unlike Brad who dated many different girls, Randy, for the most part, only dated one girl, Lauren, whom he remained with for the rest of the series. Anderson, whose first recurring TV part was on the series from 1991 to 1993, then landed her breakout role on Baywatch and later V.I.P. The model, who covered dozens of magazines, also starred in multiple movies, many times playing an exaggerated version of herself. The series, which launched Allen’s television career, ran for eight seasons and was nominated for seven Primetime Emmy Awards.
The series launched Allen's acting career and was the start of the television career of Pamela Anderson, who was part of the recurring cast for the first two seasons. As a child, his parents did not allow him to speak to his neighbors, so he really likes talking to Tim and Jill. Wilson serves as an all-wise sage in the show, doling out advice to the Taylor family and seemingly always knowing just what to say to solve a problem. While most of his appearances were to help the Taylors, on seldom occasion someone who was in the extended family, or a nonmember, such as Al, would seek out Wilson's advice.
Home Improvement Actors You May Not Know Passed Away
He is extremely frugal and suffers from male-pattern baldness, both of which make him a frequent target of Tim's jokes. It is mentioned that he has made a number of bad business ventures (such as a drive-thru pet store), was divorced twice, and didn't finish college (as mentioned by Jill's sister in one episode). While she is very motherly and domestic in nature, the show features recurring jokes about her poor cooking skills. A close second is Jill, who only missed the second part of the series finale . While he occasionally considers moving on professionally, Tim remains the main host of Tool Time until the final episode of Home Improvement. Before he was cast on Tool Time, he worked as a traveling tool salesman.

During the early seasons of the show, Mark is seen in a Cub Scout uniform without badges. He does however mend his relationships with them after learning the error of his ways. Unlike Tim and Brad, Randy is not good with his hands and does not enjoy working on crafts or the Hot Rod. Instead, he often relates more with his mother, with whom he shares his intelligence and enjoyment of acting. Jill has a strong feminist side and enjoys opera, theatre, and the ballet.
Tim barely graduated from college but later receives an honorary Doctorate from Western Michigan University. He often voices apelike grunts in a range of tones and inflections to convey emotions for comic effect, such as confusion, irritation or pride. Taylor's "arch enemy", so to speak, is the real-life home improvement specialist, Bob Vila. One episode sees Tim competing against Bob Vila in a lawnmower contest for charity. Tim installs a jet engine on his machine, which results in Tim causing unintended chaos and destruction.

Brad, popular and athletic, was often the moving factor, who engaged before thinking, a tendency which regularly landed him in trouble. Randy, a year younger, was the comedian of the pack, known for his quick thinking, wisecracks, and smart mouth. Mark was somewhat of a mama's boy, though later in the series he grew into a teenage outcast who dressed in black clothing.
The company is wrapping production on the horror film "Rogue River." Bryan credits "Home Improvement" for the success he has had in the film industry. A "D" grade in Chemistry at Stanford led this nursing student to switch majors to speech and drama, and Guilbert's long career on stage and screen began. After an 8 year battle with brain cancer, Prestia died in 2011at age 64. An apparent Forrest Gump of the entertainment industry for multiple decades, Jones seemed to be everywhere, including appearing in the gatefold photo, standing behind The Eagles inside the "Hotel California" LP.
During the show's final season, Brad and Mark became much closer due to Randy's absence. Morgan Wandell – The new producer of Tool Time during the final season. He is interested only in ratings and is willing to go to any tawdry end to get them, including staging a Jerry Springer Show-like riot in the audience, and wanting Tim to stage more destructive accidents, which Tim is firmly against. Rather than let Wandell turn their show into "Trash Time", Tim, Al, and Heidi quit, but not before turning their final episode into a huge jam session, which became a ratings smash.
He is also injured every year while working on the Christmas decorations. While it is constantly mentioned that Tool Time is a limited local home improvement show that sits very high on the channel dial, it seems to have a very wide audience in the state of Michigan and is progressively broadcast to more outlets across the Midwest . Tim often boasts of his popularity for hosting the show, although many people state that they like Al better.
Despite her credentials, Heidi was also "eye candy" for the male audience on "Tool Time", as the outfits she wore typically showed off her figure, particularly her legs and ample cleavage; Tim speculated that many men came to the show just to see Heidi. It is revealed in multiple episodes that Tim's son, Brad, has a crush on her. In seasons seven and eight, Dunning's role on Tool Time became such that she was eventually given main cast billing in the opening credits.

Steve Allen, Don Knotts, Bob Newhart, Tim Conway — these are among the revered comedy legends that worked with and greatly respected the talents of Poston, and yet he may not be as appreciated as many of his contemporaries were. An avid fan of the Detroit professional sports teams, Tim wears Lions, Pistons, Red Wings, and Tigers clothing in numerous instances, and many plots revolve around the teams.
The reason he always wears flannel came from his father, who, when asking young Al to assist in their own various home projects, would put his old flannels on Al to keep him clean or warm. In the Eighth Season of the show, Randy leaves for Costa Rica , reappearing in only one episode when he came back for Christmas. On that occasion, Randy felt that so much had changed in his absence that he no longer fit in with the family, although confiding in Wilson aided his feelings. The two are often seen working together to tease Mark, attempting to cover up Brad's actions to keep him out of trouble, or just hanging out together. Brad and Mark don't share many things in common until they get older, especially in the 8th season where they develop a close bond while Randy is away in Costa Rica.
