Shifting Gears

I hated Tim Allen in the 90s. Grew on me in 2000s. I'm a fan after Last Man Standing. Show started okay and will give it a try. Sadly, I cannot digest Kat Dennings. She's so dry and not funny. We need a shake up for S2 if we get there.

I agree with everyone else and the laugh track. It's annoying. Please please please lose it.

Also, lose the dark blue lighting. It makes the feel look terrifying. The dark tones inside the house feels so depressing. The kids are great. No issues with them. Also the supporting cast. Please kill off Kat and her unfunny lines. Perhaps a funnier actress that has a better chemistry with Tim!

Painfully bad & clichés galore!

Kat D thinks her witty sarcastic attitude is always a flex,no matter what she gets cast in.. Would enjoy seeing if she can act,beyond just one style.

Tim seems to feel he can micromanage things from script,etc.. Unfortunately that's his downfall it leaves things stale,because it resembles his past series.

The laugh track doesn't make things funny,but more like your watching a play or guess what.. Cheesy sitcom.

The kids are wrongly cast & not good either.

Also boring another show about a widow getting his life complicated,with shocker.. Kids!

Sean(Former Apple Pie)wasn't great,but made things less insufferable.

I think better direction,script & casting may of improved things.. The acting was flat & you didn't connect with any main characters,because they felt unlikable.

Don't see this making it beyond season one,actually don't see myself making it for episode 2 but will give it another try.. "Maybe" it will find its place & become better.

I'm quite enjoying this sitcom so far. The laugh track does not bother me, actually I find sitcoms with laugh tracks to be enjoyable and light hearted. It's not about telling me when to laugh but rather about feeling like I'm laughing along with an audience. It makes me feel like I'm there and that it's more of a "show".

I'm very excited to see Tim, Kat, Seam and Daryl interact, they are all favourites from separate shows and were great in those so I expect they will be great in this one.

So far I've watched the first 2 episodes and I think it's getting into it's groove. They are getting more into their characters and it's getting funnier. Every show needs a few episodes for us to get to know them and their rhythm, so let's see how this one's gonna be.

Waited till 4th episode.and instead of getting better, it got worse. Love Tim Allens other shows and miss LAST MAN STANDING This show is just not funny, and the laugh track is so mechanical. The characters are woody (as in stiff).

Kat is uninspiring like most of the crew.

I just hope Tim can overhaul the show with better writing, And with real funny ep0isodes Did they use AI like ChatGPT to write the stories? It feels like that The concept of Tim having a car restoration shop feels like a great concept and somewhat of a continuation of LAST MAN STANDING, but it ends there, Characters like Ed. Alzate, Vannesa the girls, Chuck Larabee. Joe (Jay Leno) Maybe because of budget constraints there are fewer and less interesting characters Hoping it gets better and soon, cant even finish watching episode 4 its so bad.

This is a typical Tim Allen showcase with plenty of scope to turn into a decent show. Granted its only the first episode but so far i'm not a big fan. Canned laughter is killing it for me, it happens way to much and when things arn't even that funny. Lose it completely and maybe it will go the distance but in the format its in i can see it getting cancelled after one season which is a pity, i'm a big tim allen fan and love kat dennings. Cant beleive that the trial screening didnt point this out. Its maybe worth watching up to 3rd or 4th episode to see if it improves but if it dosnt then its a big miss for me.
