I worked on the show for 6 years. I ran the computer light board we won 5 Emmys for lighting thanks to the dp Donald Morgan. It was a blast to work on never a dull moment. One big happy family cast and crew. Really loved it many great memories long live Home Improvement.
How the hell have I not seen this?! This was one of the only shows my family watched together as a child before they divorced. I still watch it all the time. Wilson will never be gone.
"Wilson will never be gone." That put such a lump into my throat that my popcorn couldn't go down and couldn't be pushed back up. We didn't have a TV when I was little, but I watched TV at my grandma's sometimes. Arthur, the Magic School Bus, and ... Home Improvement. And then in college, I rediscovered home improvement though these episodes that had been uploaded to RUclips. Wilson really will never be gone. There is so much wisdom in his lines that I reference and live by, every day, when I get into tough situations. Most of us have our boyhood TV heroes we want to be like, and Wilson definitely one of mine.
In 2003, ABC aired a reunion special called “Tim Allen Presents: A User’s Guide to ‘Home Improvement’” to celebrate ABC’s 50th anniversary. The reunion special was taped at the Wadsworth Theatre in Los Angeles, California on May 4, 2003. It features highlights from all eight seasons of “Home Improvement” (1991-1999), with Earl Hindman providing the voiceover. Tim Allen, Richard Karn, Debbe Dunning, and Casey Sander reunite in this special. The theme music is an edited version of the sitcom’s theme song for seasons 7-8 (1997-1999), which is a remix of “Iron John’s Rock.”👍
How did I not know about this show. I lived about 90 miles from L.A. and would have been there in a heartbeat. I DID manage to attend the next to last taping. They save the last taping for VIPs (dang it).
After Tool Time went off the air I missed it so much! Then there was Last Man Standing! After it was taken of the air for the last time I was at a loss. Those shows were fantastic!
I would SO liked to see Tim face-to-face just to 1)Shake his hand and 2) TELL him to his face what an impact he has made with this show..tell him how much he is appreciated.Hope he SOMEhow knows ......well,WE all KNOW,hopefully he does
thanks for uploading only ever saw this once when it first played on tv here in new zealand i don't really remember much of i have seen home improvement to death as they played reruns just about every day for years
This "reunion" or "retrospective" came too soon after the show ended. They should have done something like this for the 20th anniversary of the series reunion and with all the cast members including Patricia and the boys.
I think a reunion is possible even though Earl is not here. That could be part of the story line that he passed away and life does move on. Nothing stays stagnant.
@@chadtaylor3292 I like stories like this. Tim Allen wanted to keep the set and not see it destroyed, unlike the guy who played Steve Urkel. He said to shoot him if he ever did that voice again. THAT VOICE made millions for you and you turn your back on it. Disgusting!
One thing that's evident is the 'Connection' between Tim and Nacy Travis (Vanessa) in L.M.S was good and entertaing, but the 'Connection' between Patricia Richardson (Jill) in H.I. was just.... FAN-TAS-TIC !!! The bond just seemed more 'Real'. I guess one example was the kissing, Tim and Patricia just had more 'Genuine' pasisonate or tender, lingering kisses overall which gave the stage 'Marriage' more realism. Those two bounced off each other so well. No detriment meant to L.M.S. but watching those two in Home Improvement was just pure magic! 👌😊 (Debbe Dunning helped too! 😉😍) 😎🇬🇧
Patricia Richardson and Tim Allen had such a working chemistry on the show! It’s hard to think of them as not married in real life. lol Tim Allen should be married to Patricia Richardson! 🤣 I’m not crazy…I promise. lol😂
33:41 - When I first saw this scene/episode and Jill said "Manland? Now you've got a theme park between your legs?".. I GENUINELY THOUGHT Tim would reply "Yeah, and it's got the BEST GODDAM RIde in your life!" Hahaha 😎🇬🇧
Tim, Richard and Debbe are the greatest sitcom trio. Since Debbe came into the show, it was clear that she was gonna be much bigger deal than Pamela Anderson. The audience came to love Heidi's character so much that she became more prominent character and crucial part of Tim Taylor's life. In my opinion, the friendship between Tim, Al and Heidi was the core of the show. Heidi and Al were the only constants in Tim's life, the ones he truly cared about the most. It was always obvious that Tim and Al were both attracted to Heidi which ultimately transformed into a love triangle in season 7 "Futile Attraction".
35:14 Doctor: It will sting for a seconds Translation #1: Don't worry. This will hurt you a lot more than me. Translation #2: "a few seconds" is more like 20 minutes...at least!
I never saw this. Interesting How did I miss this? My dad & I used to watch this show. We Loved it Sad that it had to end. But I think around season 5 or 6 they started running out of ideas. And with Jonathan Taylor Thomas gone it just wasn't the same either
I would really like to see #1show " by the way, this actually is a symbol for a number", to the end of these shows un-edited because of current today I'm o.k. with it, tomorrow not o.k.
Will hidey wear a leather dog coller around her neack with the chain with it hooked to jill.talors leather dog coller will that happen with both ladies
Heidi put pam anderson to shame. By this point pam had to much plastic in her in her late teens early 20s pam was fine then she started hitting surgeons table and lost her natural beauty
Nothing against Pam, but I always have felt Debbe added an energy to the role Pam did not have, particularly in those cold opens. Not to mention course she was a total sex pot.....and in a way matched the blue collar feel of the show in her looks. But even outside of that, she had something Pam didn't. Comparing their episodes is like night and day, even before Debbe got a bigger role near the end of the run.
Well Jill Taylor is really.looking.four a hot mud match with hidey if hidey will mud wresl Jill Taylor lik Jill really wants with hidey mud wresl Jill Taylor please hidey
We really want ta now witch one of you will be coming hom as a leather dog coller and chain pet dogy will it be you Jill or will it.be hidey hopley we will find out soon
This needs to be inside of a pig pen just filled with mud so hofley Jill talor will wresl and tak on hidey in the mud in the hog pen and hopley Jill will be wearing that string bikini under neath that asom pink silky wedding dress when Jill gets to wresl hidey in the pig pen with hidey

That is awesome Randy!
Thanks for your great work on a great show, Randy!
Thank you for your work, I still watch this everyday after work. It’s my life show, will never go without it.
Also, leads or info on how I could possibly acquire a prop from the show? Have looked online but never really found anything.
What years were you there for?
How the hell have I not seen this?! This was one of the only shows my family watched together as a child before they divorced. I still watch it all the time. Wilson will never be gone.
First time I've seen this too

Now we can get a full Tool Time experience ❤
Home Improvement is my favorite show ever!!!
Yeah! Me Too
24 years and i still wait patiently for a reunion special.

It was rushed
Home Improvement - The greatest comedy show of all time. Grew up on it.
you forget Married with Children
@@cartoonfan959 & You Forget Seinfeld
Tim Allen is a legend in comedy and my favorite comedy guy
This my favorite sitcom ever. I wish they could bring it back. What a great show and cast❤
Last man standing is pretty good.
Man i love to meet these guys, i didnt grow up watching this show, but i did watch re runs and i fell in love with the show.
How did I not know about this show. I lived about 90 miles from L.A. and would have been there in a heartbeat. I DID manage to attend the next to last taping. They save the last taping for VIPs (dang it).
THIS was AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God, I really MISS the show .....
unless you might want to watch the reruns from Laff
@@mcdonaldtag and on up channel
After Tool Time went off the air I missed it so much! Then there was Last Man Standing! After it was taken of the air for the last time I was at a loss. Those shows were fantastic!
Me too
And Debbie Dunning looks fantastic as always.... WOW!
James Hancock The woman is breath taking.
Debbe
I would SO liked to see Tim face-to-face just to 1)Shake his hand and 2) TELL him to his face what an impact he has made with this show..tell him how much he is appreciated.Hope he SOMEhow knows ......well,WE all KNOW,hopefully he does
I'm sure he knows. Check out this clip. ruclips.net/video/xhBfqSonKpU/видео.html
We will be right back after these messages from Binford.
Debbie is definitely a home improvement.
We love Tim Allen. Thanks so much for posting!
Loved the show,,still watching the reruns today
This show was more important to childhood and families than friends. Change my mind.
True
I love Home Improvements. I own the whole series on DVD. How is it that I didn't even know this special existed?
It only ran on ABC twice in May of 2003. A third airing of this show occurred on VH1 early that fall and was never run again.
I think that I enjoyed this show more than any other. 🔨🧰🔧🗜🔩
The scene at the restaurant. I was dieing. God I love this show.
Wish the audio was louder. Yes I have good headphones and yes my volume is maxed out.
I feel that Heidi was sexier than Pamela
I like both tool girls
Me too, Heidi is way sexier than the blow up blonde
Debbie was much sexier then Pamela
Humility & humor go a long way.
For some, all the way down the aisle.
For others..Heidi is worth divorce court.
By a mile
This was good! I miss this show.
I have whole series on 📀 and long live the best an awesome sitcom of all time favorite of mine
Without a doubt, the funniest show ever in the history of television . I've never laughed so hard, as with Home Improvement.
@jwathas The Middle was probably the last great family sitcom. Modern Family in the early years was good too.
Still isn't Home Improvement though. Nothing beats this show.
Yeah, many good jokes. "Xmas without Al"? Yes, because it's called "NOEL" 🤣🤣🤣
No it's not. I do not find it amusing anymore.
It and Seinfeld were the cream of the crop.
Tim and Patricia are the best TV couple of all time
Debbie dunning is goddess and Richard Karn perfect foil for Tim's character
I remember this. and now I feel old lol
so blasted funny-excellent show.
thanks for uploading only ever saw this once when it first played on tv here in new zealand i don't really remember much of i have seen home improvement to death as they played reruns just about every day for years
Holy!! Debbie...No words
The skid steer part at 25:00 was priceless
OMG !!! I FORGOT HOW FUNNY THE SHOW WAS !!! I was laughing in my tears.
I remember watching home improvement commercial about Tim Allen turn into a giant it was call attack of the giant toolman
Debra hasnt aged
Excellent! I laughed my head off... I miss that show. 🤣
I prefer Heidi to Pamela .. lol
Same here
Same, Debbie was so much better
This is made after the show ended and Tim Allen worked on this with the people who made the show
oh really I don't think anyone could have deduced that
This "reunion" or "retrospective" came too soon after the show ended. They should have done something like this for the 20th anniversary of the series reunion and with all the cast members including Patricia and the boys.
Well you didn't watched Last Man Standing where the cast of Home Improvement was in the show like Patricia and Johnathan Taylor Thomas
He explains why it was so fast in the special
Debbe is a good friend of ours. We produce a show about Dude Ranches with her
Tim rules
DAMN DEBBIE DUNNING IN HOME IMPROVEMENT !!!
I wish someone had this with sound included ☹️
I think Tim Allen should do a reboot of Home Improvement on ABC Tuesday nights at 9PM.
Urkel too.
fox.. fuck abc.
Second to the REBOOT!
I heard Home Improvement could never have a reunion because Earl Hindman died in December 2003.
I think a reunion is possible even though Earl is not here. That could be part of the story line that he passed away and life does move on. Nothing stays stagnant.
I heard somewhere that Tim Allen bought the set of "Home Improvement" and has it stashed in storage. Would LOVE to find out if that's true.
He actually has it on display in his garage. You'll be able to see it in the new show on the History channel.
@@jayblanchard4477 Is the first episode going to be repeated? I missed it the other night.
@@rricci I am sure it will be.
It's true he bought ALL of the sets
@@chadtaylor3292 I like stories like this. Tim Allen wanted to keep the set and not see it destroyed, unlike the guy who played Steve Urkel. He said to shoot him if he ever did that voice again. THAT VOICE made millions for you and you turn your back on it. Disgusting!

Pat is looking good these days
Does anybody know what time it is ?
15:05 Damn!
Patricia Richardson and Tim Allen had such a working chemistry on the show! It’s hard to think of them as not married in real life. lol Tim Allen should be married to Patricia Richardson! 🤣 I’m not crazy…I promise. lol😂

Ahhh reminiscing about reminiscing lol
Sadly Earl Hindman died in December 2003 from lung cancer
Sadly he was also an alcoholic
Actually, he was a long-time smoker. He got treatment for lung cancer but sadly, it failed.
20:08 "C: A refrigerator, very cold and the light is never on. These is stupid".
Tim just got burned big time with that sentence.
I loved the "Survey Says"
the show did have the best scene transition
35:14 Doctor: It will sting for a seconds
Translation #1: Don't worry. This will hurt you a lot more than me.
Translation #2: "a few seconds" is more like 20 minutes...at least!
i loved home improvement i never missed an episode, but i just couldnt get into last man standing
15:05 Good Golly! Gimme the vapors!!!
Before may the 4th was a Stars Wars fanboy day.
Debbe Dunning, dream woman....
Was the audio recorded using a potato?
I never saw this. Interesting
How did I miss this?
My dad & I used to watch this show. We Loved it
Sad that it had to end. But I think around season 5 or 6 they started running out of ideas.
And with Jonathan Taylor Thomas gone it just wasn't the same either
Why were the rest of them not on it?
That tool girl is smoking hot !
10:47 Which episode was this? 😂
If only there was a real version of this shit now LMAO
31:57 what episode is this from?
Quibbling Siblings season 4
Wilson was in a 1974 movie called the Taking of Pelham 123, much better than the 09 version, more story than explosions
anyone got this with better sound?
Wear headphones with volume at max it sounds fine
or download the video and then play with VLC player on your laptop/desktop so you can crank the volume above 100%
Thirdly, possibly a way to re-encode the downloaded video with the audio volume increased without distortion, maybe.
Damn, my coke dealer sure did shape up.
Iam really really hoping that with be soon
18:35 So now we know where Myron Gaines got his ideas from for Fresh and Fit. Was he like 15 watching this?
Eye really really lik that with hidey treating Jill lik her pet dogy finely
I need spanish subs
I would really like to see #1show " by the way, this actually is a symbol for a number", to the end of these shows un-edited because of current today I'm o.k. with it, tomorrow not o.k.
it's orefull sound an pictures
Eye agree with all that yes I do all the way
You and Jill really need to figth each other this needs to be a any thing go's leather dog coller and chain match
Will hidey wresl Jill talor in that privet mud room with a mud pit set up so you to will mud wresl with each other will that happen
Will hidey wear a leather dog coller around her neack with the chain with it hooked to jill.talors leather dog coller will that happen with both ladies
Hidey will you hook up to the dog coller and the dog chain with jill talor pliease
Heidi put pam anderson to shame. By this point pam had to much plastic in her in her late teens early 20s pam was fine then she started hitting surgeons table and lost her natural beauty
Will that happen hidey with you and jill talor hidey
00:35:30 ouch 🤕🤕🤕
i prefer debbie as the tool girl not sure why but i liked her better
Nothing against Pam, but I always have felt Debbe added an energy to the role Pam did not have, particularly in those cold opens.

@@ajk true like when they did the opening for tool time total difference
@@audiazarate2143 Yeah that's exactly what I was talking about. You really can't compare them, they are that different from each other.
@@ajk oh ok my bad sorry
@@audiazarate2143 No worries, all good dude :)
Eye sure really.really want that to happen with Jill and hidey with both of them in leather dog.collers hooked to a chain
31:30
There’s an aesthetic about 2003 that I personally find almost repulsive.
Cant believe they didn't cheer the " i dont think so tim" 🙄
Well Jill Taylor is really.looking.four a hot mud match with hidey if hidey will mud wresl Jill Taylor lik Jill really wants with hidey mud wresl Jill Taylor please hidey
