Uuuuahhhhhhhhh?!? Patricia Richardson is perplexed by Tim Allen’s recent claims about a Home Improvement reboot series. Richardson played Jill Taylor, the wife of Tim “The Toolman” Taylor in the 1990s sitcom, whose iron grip on the Taylor household helped keep the family unit from falling into disrepair. Expressing confusion about Allen’s claims that the entire cast is ready to reunite for a reboot series, Richardson confirmed she’s disinterested in reprising her iconic role.
“It was so weird, I would hear he was coming out publicly and saying this stuff about everyone was on board to do a Home Improvement reunion, but he never asked me and he never asked Jonathan [Taylor Thomas],” Richardson said on Thursday’s episode of the Back to the Best podcast.
“I called Jonathan one day and said, ‘Has he asked you about this? He went, ‘No.’ So why is he saying everyone...

With the revival of Roseanne premiere later this month, Tim Allen was recently asked about the possibility of a Home Improvement revival by Et, and he said:
"I can't say everybody, but it has been floated, and more than I would have expected said, 'Yeah, that would be cool to do it years later,' like Roseanne."
If he would be able to get to gang back together to do it, he'd certainly be interested! The cast of the series included Patricia Richardson, Zachery Ty Bryan, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Taran Noah Smith, Richard Karn, and Debbe Dunning. Earl Hindman, who played Wilson is the...

In this exclusive picture for Entertainment Weekly, the cast of Home Improvement has reunited! And everyone looks…fine. They look fine. You know, people age or whatever. Tim Allen continues to morph into Robin Williams with frosted tips and Debbe Dunning is channeling a little Janice Dickinson and, wow, the little kid is huge! But everyone looks fine…especially <3 <3 Jonathan Taylor Thomas <3 <3. Incidentally, he turned 30 yesterday! Thirty! The Big 3-0! J.T.T. just turned 30 and, although that age is not old, it’s still weird to think that guy is not, y’know, ten. Sure, he still looks petite, but that’s his charm! Happy belated birthday, J.T.T.! Stay perfect, never change, and hope to see you in another cast reunion picture in 20 years, when your skin will remain Flawless and you’ll still be smaller than your TV mom, something we’ll never hold against you.
