"Last Man Standing" marks Tim Allen's TV return
(CBS) And you thought the networks were done debuting new shows !
Tim Allen makes his return to sitcom TV tonight in ABC's "Last Man Standing," the lead-in for the 'Dancing With the Stars" results show.
The 59-year-old actor spent eight years playing TV 's "tool man" Tim Taylor on "Home Improvement," which went off the air in 1999. Since then, he has had a number of film roles, including the starring role in the "Santa Clause" movies and the voice of Buzz Lightyear in the Toy Story" franchise .
Now, he's back on TV, playing Mike Baxter, a married father of three girls in "Last Man Standing."
The critics have not been kind to the show, but the most serious criticism appears to be that it is too much like 'Home Improvement." (That's a bad thing?). And even the harshest critics grudgingly admit that Allen knows how to deliver a line.
What do you think? Will you watch tonight?
