Home Improvement

Home Improvement was an American television sitcom starring actor/comedian Tim Allen,loosely based on his stand-up comedy routine. It ran for eight seasons on ABC from September 1991 to May 1999. It was also shown on The Disney Channel and Channel 4 in the UK. Reruns are currently on national syndication and on cable television network such as TBS and Superstation WGN in the US, the Seven Network and FOX Classics in Australia, and can be seen on digital channel ABC1 in the UK. In America, it will begin airing on Nick at Nite in Fall 2007.

In Germany, Home Improvement was shown on ARD, RTL, VOX, and reruns are currently shown on the private channel RTL 2. It was also shown on M-Net on South African television, and reruns are showing throughout 2007 on the M-Net_Series channel, available to DStv users.

Set in Royal Oak, Michigan (a suburb of Detroit), the series centered on the antics of the Taylor family, which, along with Tim, included his pedantic wife Jill (Patricia Richardson) and their three mischievous sons: the popular and athletic Brad (Zachery Ty Bryan), comedian and intellectual Randy (Jonathan Taylor Thomas), and the youngest, innocent son Mark (Taran Noah Smith).

In early seasons, sons Brad and Randy would torment their youngest brother Mark (and each other) in ways that consistently presented a challenge to Tim and Jill. Mark always believed what his siblings told him (for example, that the whole family but Mark were aliens and that Mark was not Tim and Jill's natural son), until Jill explained all.

Mark was initially presented as slightly naive and in constant admiration of his father. Brad was presented as a character who often engaged fist before brain, a tendency which regularly landed him in trouble. Randy was the comedian of the pack-- the quick-thinking, sarcastic son who had more common sense than Brad but wasn't immune to trouble.
