Love the show and the dry humor!
I really like this show. Tim Allen has always been funny.
I was a fan until Tim’s character used the term “special needs” to make fun of his visiting brother. As a parent of a child with special needs I was appalled and shocked that the show would stoop so low. It was an unnecessary remark used to get a cheap laugh. We fight for our children to mainstreamed into society, to go to regular schools, we try to teach other children to not be bullies and then adults make fun of “special needs” on t.v. and undermine all we have tried to teach. Then we wonder why kids grow up… Read more »
Relax…I am phyiscally disabilied and I still think it was fun…Its a tv show.
i think last man standing rocks and i watch it every Tuesday night and i also think Tim Allen is at his best but it’s about time they did a show that is funny and can touch everyone’s heart so i think the show should be renewed for another season.
My entire family loves the show
Love this show! Great cast and great humor. I just wish the network would give it a chance and a better time slot.
Last man standing and tim allen I love the show it’s 1 of the few shows left out there that reminds people in this country how this country should be.
Number one show in Todays Television. Tim is amazingly funny, makes me cry of laughter. Great great Show. I HOPE IT GETS THE SAME OR MORE AMOUNT OF RUNNING TIME AS HOME IMPROVEMENT DID.
PLEASE renew this show. Love Tim Allen, love the show. One of the better ones out there!
This is a funny show. Tim is Tim. He’s a funny guy!!! I hope to to see it on.
I really like Last Man Standing a lot. It’s funny, and it keeps me pretty much laughing out
loud. It’s entertaining without all the sex and violence and vulgarity. I hope that their
contract is renewed, I really do like the show and all the characters who are on the show.
I am glad that they fixed a couple of things about the show from the first three episodes and that now it is a really funny show. I hope they keep it.
I love this show. One of the best sitcoms I’ve seen in a while. Keep this one !!!
I love this show. One of the few shows I watch on the basic networks.
Nancy and Tim have great chemistry and the girls a perfect blend.
A keeper!
I LOVE this show! The humor is great! I find myself laughing out loud. Having raised 5 daughters, I can definitely relate. Great script!
“Last Man Standing” is off to a good start with the casting of Hector Elizondo and Nancy Travis. I feel that the writing could be tweaked a little bit. Hector is a fine actor and needs better material. Nancy has just the right comedic flair to play against Tim Allen. I do not feel that they need a laugh track. A laugh track is very annoying. Do the producers not feel that the audience knows when something is funny, or is the material not funny and they feel that they need to add a laugh track? Take a cue from… Read more »
