Did you guys ever watch the show? I totally forgot how much I loved the show. It's in my top 5 shows that I can watch and never get tired of with Cheers as my all time favorite. What were your feelings about the Taylor Family from Detroit?

I still love it. I'll still crack up every time a Binford tool goes bonkers or he hits his head on the pipe.

I don't think I every really liked it, but I used to watch it every single day after school. It just kind of occupied that space in between Drew Carey rerun and The Simpsons

I liked it when I was a kid, but as I got older it became less and less funny to me. I do love the creative ways they would come up with to hide Wilson's face though.

I grew up in Hamtramck, MI, which is next to Detroit.
I was floored hearing Hamtramck referenced on a national TV show. (he goes to a polish restaurant one time or something, or at least complains about the gastro aftermath)

Went through and watched the entire run about a week ago. I hated how preachy the last two seasons got, but the first five seasons were hilarious.
Also It inspired me to make this

Loved the show. But the first thing I think of is. Because my real name is Tim Allan. I wasn't allowed to have an opinion on anything for 8 years. Anytime I brought up and idea it was respond to with "I don't think so Tim". Also, people use to grunt at me all the time. Later in life when I got into carpentry everyone started calling me Tim the Tool Man. I've literally never been able to escape it.

I used to love the show but eventually got tired of it. Almost every show seemed to follow this formula: Tim does something stupid on Tool Time. Tim insults Al. Tim does something stupid that pisses off Jill. Tim goes to Wilson for advice. Tim recites something back to Jill that Wilson said but screws it up. Jill forgives Tim. Throw in something with the kids and that's like 90% of the show.
That being said, I might watch it if nothing else is on and I always enjoy it when I do (especially the earlier episodes).

I felt that season 2-4 were my favorites with season five being an ok season. I did think Randy's girlfriend later in the season was cute as hell when I was a teenager. I googled her picture and she still looks good lol

it had its time, I still watch the Christmas episodes around Christmas time. But aside from that, it doesn't really stand the test of time for me.
That's not to say I didn't love it at the time. Honestly, this and Roseanne share a big part of nostalgia for me while I was in High School... basically the two shows that stand out when I think back to that period of my life.

Love it. Hate that TBS has reduced the episodes of this and Fresh Prince to show the horrible Tyler Perry shows.
