While the Santa Clause franchise is completely unhinged, and Jungle 2 Jungle has aged about as well as a carton of milk that had already expired before Jungle 2 Jungle came out, there’s at least one live-action Tim Allen movie that still holds up today: Galaxy Quest.

Sure, it’s basically a Star Trek-coded remake of Three Amigos, but Galaxy Quest is a genuinely funny movie. And it works in large part thanks to the cast, which includes the late great Alan Rickman, Sigourney Weaver, Tony Shalhoub and Sam Rockwell. Plus, the dude from Home Improvement.

Allen plays the thinly-veiled Shatner surrogate Jason Nesmith, a washed-up actor famous for captaining the Nsea Protector on TV’s Galaxy Quest, often with no shirt on.

As we’ve mentioned before, the Dean Parisot-helmed comedy was originally supposed to be directed by Harold Ramis — until the studio tried to force him to work with Allen.

Reader, you have been lied to! Film history is littered with unfairly maligned classics, whether critics were too eager to review the making of rather than the finished product, or they suffered from underwhelming ad campaigns or general disinterest. Let’s revise our takes on some of these films from wrongheaded to the correct opinion.

When director John Badham‘s skydiving thriller “Drop Zone” was released by Paramount Pictures in December 1994, the general perception was that it was a ridiculous and disposable programmer. It did Ok at the box office (opening at number three behind Barry Levinson‘s hot-button drama “Disclosure” and the Tim Allen family hit “The Santa Clause”), but critics had their knives out for the movie’s allegedly indefensible plot holes, and the movie was largely forgotten a few weeks after it opened.

“Drop Zone,” with its story of a US Marshal (Wesley Snipes) pursuing a gang...

Although sold to audiences as a delightful holiday comedy for the family, John Pasquin's 1994 blockbuster "The Santa Clause" has a twisted premise at its heart. Divorced dad Scott Calvin (Tim Allen) is looking after his young son Charlie (Eric Lloyd) on Christmas night when, up on the roof, there arises a clatter. He goes to investigate and finds the very real Santa Claus preparing to go down his chimney. Scott yells out and startles Santa, causing the jolly old man to fall off the roof to his death. The accidental manslaughter of Santa Claus is a weird place to start a heartwarming fable for kids, much less Disney's larger "Santa Clause" franchise.

Scott then finds a business card among Santa's belongings, entreating him to don the furry red coat and pick up the Christmas gig where Santa left off. Scott, in turn, returns the sleigh to the North Pole...

Easter may have been a couple of months ago, but that didn’t stop last night’s Rick and Morty from “decking the house with Easter baskets,” as Jerry sang in his horrendous musical opening.

Of course, Rick and Morty did Easter the only way Rick and Morty could: beginning with Jerry running over the Easter Bunny with his car and continuing with the complex, interplanetary Easter origin story in which Jesus Christ — yes, that Jesus Christ — was an alien sent to Earth to eradicate the Easter Bunny, a human-sized ravenous beast that brainwashes people into having sex with each other.

While Rick and Morty themselves deal with the larger space story, Jerry’s arc in the episode sees him transform into the new Easter Bunny, much like Tim Allen turned into Santa after accidentally killing him in The Santa Clause.

And so, we decided to turn to the voice of Jerry himself,...

Never meet your heroes — or Tim Allen, that is. Few things are quite as unpleasant and soul-crushing as finding out that an actor you've adored is a total d**k in real life. And rest assured, the silver screen Santa Claus that we Millennials used to cherish and laugh at growing up has done a lot to obliterate our immature fandom and warrant our utmost contempt instead. Case in point: /Film's Bj Colangelo previously wrote about a story that involved Allen being a prick to his co-star Rene Russo on the set of Barry Sonnenfeld's dark comedy "Big Trouble".

But even if you set aside Allen essentially calling Russo "unattractive" to her face, he has a long history of engaging in problematic behavior throughout his career with his co-stars and other celebrities. One of the most scathing of those comes from actor, comedian, and screenwriter Casey Wilson, who worked...

Forever, based on the book by Judy Blume, has arrived on Netflix. The series stars Lovie Simone as Keisha Clark, Michael Cooper Jr. as Justin Edwards, Xosha Roquemore as Keisha’s mother Shelly, Karen Pittman as Justin’s mother Dawn and more.

Created and produced by Mara Brock Akil, who also serves as executive producer and showrunner, the story captures so strongly the feelings of first love between Keisha and Justin. Fifty years after the publishing of Blume’s hit young adult novel in 1975, Brock Akil has reimagined the story, which traces how first love creates a ripple effect into their futures after they reconnect after grade school in 2018’s Los Angeles.

ABC is keeping the engine running on its newest family comedy. The network has officially renewed Shifting Gears for Season 2, giving fans more time with Tim Allen and Kat Dennings' delightfully dysfunctional father-daughter duo. Created by Julie Thacker Scully and Mike Scully, with Michelle Nader serving as showrunner, the multi-cam sitcom follows estranged father Matt (Allen) and daughter Riley (Dennings) as they attempt to rebuild their fractured relationship — with plenty of sarcasm, misunderstandings, and reluctant bonding along the way.

There initially seemed to be little chance of the show not being renewed when it debuted in January and quickly became ABC’s most-streamed comedy premiere ever, pulling in a whopping 17 million cross-platform viewers in just seven days, but doubts began to creep in as live viewership dipped as the season progressed, even though the show consistently saw solid gains in delayed viewing.

Plot details for Season 2 are being kept under wraps,...

For over a century, Disney has changed that art form of filmmaking in more ways than one, enchanting audiences worldwide with a wide array of films that have been praised for the strength of their storytelling and creativity. While a financially and critically successful film would easily convince any other studio to move ahead on a sequel, regardless of how much sense it makes,...

Shifting Gears star Tim Allen has shared a delightful exchange between him and his Toy Story co-star, Tom Hanks, on social media. Allen and Hanks first teamed up 30 years ago for Toy Story (1995), the animated adventure film that was not only nominated for three Oscars, but also grossed over $390 million at the global box office against a $30 million budget. The two have since worked together on every Toy Story movie, even as recently as Toy Story 4 in 2019, which grossed over $1 billion at the worldwide box office. Allen posted two photos on his personal X account, one Hanks sent him of him standing behind the Volkswagen I.D. Buzz, and another that he replied to his co-star, recreating his picture.

While their roles in the Toy Story franchise remain some of the most important in both of their careers, Tim Allen and Tom Hanks have both gone on to accomplish great things as actors.

The Floor is supposed to be a game show with 100 everyday people competing in their expert categories in order to win $250,000. However, fans have noticed lately that reality TV stars, actors, and other minor celebrities are subtly popping up in the new season. On Season 1, actor Dyllan Christopher, who starred in Unaccompanied Minors, Murphy Brown, and Armageddon appeared on the show. However, if you aren’t a fan of those movies and shows, you probably didn’t recognize him. Then on Season 2, Eric Lloyd, who played Charlie Calvin in The Santa Clause movies ironically played under the category “Christmas Movies.” And before he played the category, he revealed who he was, making his fellow contestants gasp. However, Season 3 is Stacked with some familiar faces…and many viewers aren’t happy about it. The first contestant that fans noticed is a former Jeopardy! player. David Madden competed in the 2006 Tournament of Champions.

The most wonderful time for streaming officially has a date: Dec. 25, 2024. That single day accounted for 51.2 billion minutes of cumulative streaming time, according to Nielsen, making it the most-streamed day of television for the U.S. in the company’s history of measurement.

Streaming represented roughly half of total TV consumption on that day, clocking in at 49.5%.

So what were people watching on Christmas Day? Unsurprisingly, Netflix stole the show. The Baltimore Ravens vs. Houston Texans NFL game was the most-watched event of the day, securing 2.98 billion minutes streamed alone. The Ravens and Texans likely got an assist from Beyoncé, who performed during halftime. That was followed by the Kansas City Chiefs vs. Pittsburg Steelers game, which also secured 2.98 billion minutes streamed, though it saw roughly 200,000 fewer streaming minutes than the other game.

Tim Allen is undeniably one of the small screen's most illustrious and successful stars, with the funny man having memorably headlined two of television's greatest sitcoms: the '90s juggernaut Home Improvement and the 2010s hit Last Man Standing. Allen has made the sitcom genre his bread and butter, winning numerous accolades, like a Golden Globe and People's Choice Award for his unforgettable work. He also famously starred as Buzz Lightyear in the beloved Toy Story animated series and as Scott Calvin in The Santa Clause franchise.

In 2025, Allen made his dazzling return to television with Shifting Gears, appearing alongside famous faces like Kat Dennings, Sean William Scott, and Daryl "Chill" Mitchell and portraying a widower and auto shop owner who is reunited with his estranged daughter and her two children after she decides to move home and regroup after separating from her husband.

David Krumholtz has finally joined a comic book movie. The actor, who is set to play Supergirl's father in Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, recently shared how much it means to him to join James Gunn's DC Universe.

Following his casting, Krumholtz released a statement on Instagram expressing "gratitude" for being able to live out a childhood dream. "I was that kid. Overflowing drawers full of comics… escaping into worlds unknown… imagining myself having powers that would benefit the greater good," the actor wrote. "Joining the DC Universe is a mindblowing privilege. Representing the symbol of hope in Supergirl as Zor-El is a personal triumph. My gratitude overflowing now, like those drawers did…."

Production on Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow is underway, and the film has just cast the parents of the titular hero. Based on the DC Comic of the same name, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow will see House of the Dragon's Milly Alcock in the lead role of Kara Zor-El, a.k.a. Supergirl in the Dcu. The roles of Supergirl's mom and dad have been cast, and they are fan favorites.

The Hollywood Reporter revealed that David Krumholtz and Emily Beecham are set to play Supergirls' parents. The rest of the cast includes Eve Ridley as Ruthie Marye Knoll, a young girl who hires Supergirl to hunt down the man who killed her father, Krem of the Yellows Hills, played by Rust and Bone's Matthias Schoenaerts. Former Aquaman star Jason Momoa is set to play the intergalactic bounty hunter Lobo in the film.

New casting news has been revealed for the upcoming movie Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow. Serving as as part of the Dcu created by James Gunn and Peter Safran, the film will feature Milly Alcock (House of the Dragon) in the role of Supergirl.

The Hollywood Reporter has now revealed that Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow will also feature David Krumholtz (The Santa Clause) and Emily Beecham (Into the Badlands). The two actors will be playing Supergirl's parents in the film. Their casting follows the recent revelation that Jason Momoa (Aquaman) had joined the cast to play the Dcu's incarnation of Lobo. Other known casting choices include Eve Ridley as Ruthye and Matthias Schoenaerts as Krem.

ABC's uproarious new sitcom Shifting Gears features TV legend Tim Allen in one of its lead roles, but will the father-daughter comedy get renewed for season 2? Debuting in the early days of 2025, the series follows a widower named Matt (Allen) who reunites with his estranged daughter Riley (Kat Dennings) and her two kids when she hits the end of her rope and needs somewhere to stay. While the pair try to work out their differences, Riley tries to figure out what she's going to do with her life, and Matt tries to adjust to his new living situation.

While it might be getting generally bad reviews, Shifting Gears has one big thing going for it, that being the TV starpower of Tim Allen. The Toy Story and The Santa Clause star has rarely missed in his TV ventures, with long-running sitcoms like Home Improvement and Last Man Standing being the comic actor's true wheelhouse.

Could there be an on-screen reunion for Home Improvement father and son duo Tim Allen and Jonathan Taylor Thomas in the works? Don't count it out. Allen, whose latest sitcom, Shifting Gears, premiered on January 8, said "everything is a possibility" when speaking to US Weekly about potentially sharing the screen with Thomas again for his latest project. Allen and Thomas famously co-starred on Home Improvement for 8 seasons from 1991 to 1999. The two reunited again in 2013 for the Allen led-Last Man Standing, with Thomas appearing in four episodes (from 2013 to 2015) and directing three.

"Everything is a possibility. He just came back [to the last episode we filmed]. He showed up on the set. He's literally my kid. I raised that kid for eight years on Home Improvement. All of these are my kids, and I'm kind of sick about this."

Allen's last statement seems to reference his Home Improvement co-star, Zachery Ty Bryan, who portrayed oldest sibling, Brad.

Tim Allen's beloved 1990s sitcom is finally coming to Netflix. Home Improvement ran for eight seasons on ABC, and was a hit with fans, who made it a ratings success for Disney. Even former President Jimmy Carter had a cameo on the show.

Home Improvement premiered in 1991 and followed the life of Tim "Tool Man" Taylor (Allen), the host of a local home improvement show who is married to Jill (Patricia Heaton) and raising three sons. The show ran until May 1999 and was created by Carmen Finestra, Matt Williams, and David McFadzean. It's classic 1980s and 90s sitcom fare that became popular early on.

The characters are what made Home Improvement such a hit. Those on the Tool Time show brought plenty of laughs, including Richard Karn as his co-host, Al, and Pamela Anderson as Lisa, prior to her famous role on Baywatch.

Meanwhile, Taylor's home life made for memorable episodes and characters.

2025 is starting with two sitcom favorites returning to the genre. The McU's Kat Dennings, best known for her sitcom 2 Broke Girls, and The Santa Clause's Tim Allen, best known for his sitcoms Home Improvement and Last Man Standing, star in Shifting Gears, which premieres this week. The sitcom follows an estranged father (Allen) and daughter (Dennings), reuniting when the daughter returns home with her teenage kids. Now, Collider is thrilled to bring you an exclusive sneak peek ahead of the series premiere. The footage features Dennings, as Riley, along with Seann William Scott as Gabriel, a man working in the autobody shop owned by Allen's character. Matt.

Tim Allen returns to the world of sitcoms with Shifting Gears, a new show from creators Mike and Julie Thacker Scully and showrunner Michelle Nader. In the series, a widower and car workshop owner named Matt (Allen) takes in his estranged daughter Riley (Kay Dennings) and her two kids (Maxwell Simkins and Barrett Margolis). The show also features Sean William Scott and Daryl “Chill” Mitchell as workers at Matt’s auto shop.

Allen is, of course, a sitcom legend. The actor and comedian led Home Improvement, a sitcom based on his own stand-up comedy material, from 1991 to 1999. The role even won Allen a Golden Globe award. Allen’s next sitcom, Last Man Standing, ran for even longer, beginning in 2011 and ending in 2021 after 194 episodes. In addition to his TV roles, Allen has starred in truly beloved movies and franchises including Toy Story (Allen recently gave an optimistic Toy Story 5 update) and The Santa Clause.

Tim Allen — perhaps most famously known for playing Tim "The Toolman" Taylor on Home Improvement — is back to being a wisecrackin' dad on network television. The man behind Buzz Lightyear is starring opposite Kat Dennings in a new ABC sitcom called Shifting Gears, and the first trailer for the series is right here, right now, for you to watch. So park it here for a second while we crowbar another car metaphor into this opening paragraph, and then we'll get on with the trailer-viewing, eh?

Also featuring the honking talents of a one Mr. Seann William Scott — he of Dude, Where's My Car? fame, which we are legally obligated to mention anytime Scott and cars are mentioned in tandem — and Daryl "Chill" Mitchell as employees of the classic car restoration business Matt owns, Shifting Gears will focus on the reunion of Allen's Matt with his daughter Riley (Dennings) and her...

ABC has just dropped the final trailer for Shifting Gears, the highly anticipated return to the network for its king of sitcoms, Tim Allen. The actor, who is known for his iconic roles in Home Improvement and Last Man Standing, as well as being Santa Claus for generations of kids in his The Santa Clause movies, steps into a new role as Matt, a classic car enthusiast and business owner whose life is turned upside down when his estranged daughter (Kat Dennings) moves back in with her two kids (Maxwell Simkins and Barrett Margolis). The cast also features Daryl “Chill” Mitchell and Seann William Scott as Matt’s employees at his classic car restoration business. The official logline is as follows:...

Quick Links 'The Santa Clause' Trilogy and Weak Third Movie 'The Santa Clause' TV Series Fixed the Ending

30 years after its premiere, The Santa Clause remains a holiday classic. We all know the story. After accidentally killing Santa Claus, Tim Allen's Scott Calvin has to take his place. Pretty bold start to a kid's movie when you think about it. The original film received two sequels, The Santa Clause 2 and The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause. While the first outing earned mainly positive reviews, critical and audience reception dipped as the franchise went on.

The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause was regarded by many as the weakest of the three. Since no fourth film was ever commissioned, it looked like that was where Santa would hang up his jacket. But a decade-and-a-half later, we revisited the world with The Santa Clauses TV series.

Every town has its own Christmas traditions, and in South Park, Colorado, it’s Mr. Hankey the Christmas Poo rubbing shit all over the place as he spreads holiday cheer. It began with him defecating on pretty much every square inch of Kyle’s bathroom back in December of 1997, and the tradition has continued ever since.

I re-watched all seven episodes of South Park where Mr. Hankey appears for more than a cameo, and then ranked them by exactly how much he shits on the town. Honestly, it was just about the most festive thing I could think of.

Sometimes, the greatest gift an actor can receive isn’t a role or an award, it’s feeling like you belong where you are and where you're headed.

Lindsay Lohan

It was just before she pulled double duty in The Parent Trap that Lindsay Lohan held a recurring role on Another World as Alli. Her character lasted a year before the character exited and was later recast, but that wasn’t Lohan’s first daytime role. In 1993, the actress appeared on Guiding Light as Chrissie.

While Lohan has since made a name for herself in recent years starring in Christmas romcoms on Netflix, like Falling for Christmas and Our Little Secret, you also can’t forget the iconic scene in Mean Girls where the group perform some sexy choreography to “Jingle Bell Rock.”

Tom Hanks' divisive Christmas adventure film finds renewed streaming success just in time for its 20th anniversary. Though his most frequent collaborator is Steven Spielberg, Hanks is also well known for his various collaborations with director Robert Zemeckis, starting with 1994's Forrest Gump, for which he won his second Academy Award for Best Actor. In 2000, Hanks reunited with Zemeckis for Cast Away and earned another Oscar nomination for Best Actor.

Some of Hanks' latest movies have also been directed by Zemeckis, including 2022's live-action Pinnochio, in which he played Geppetto, and 2024's Here, in which the actor was digitally de-aged. In addition to his onscreen roles that have made him one of the most recognizable movie stars, Hanks has also lent his voice to a few animated characters throughout his career, most famously Woody in the Toy Story movies.

’Twas the weekend before Christmas… With the holiday season upon us, many of us are starting to revisit some of our of Christmas favourites. I actually went to see a 4K re-release of the original Black Christmas last night here in Montreal. There’s something comforting upon returning to our old favourites every year, whether they be traditional Christmas classics, or perhaps something a little more modern, like Die Hard, which, despite many claiming otherwise, has totally established itself as a Christmas classic over the years.

Whatever the case, there are certainly Loads of Christmas movies, with everything from old-time classics like It’s A Wonderful Life or some of the many versions of A Christmas Carol (the Alistair Sim version is the best Imo), or something like Love Actually, which is virtually inescapable at this time of the year.

With that in mind, we’d love to figure out just...

It is time for the broadcast networks to air their holiday programming. Regular TV has taken a break for the rest of the year. Here’s a look at what you can watch on TV tonight, Sunday, Dec. 22.

This is the time of year when people spend time with families or they go out to Christmas parties. It means fewer people are watching TV live, and the networks don’t want to risk the linear ratings for their regular shows. CBS was the last of the networks to take a break last week, and now we’re into the full holiday programming.

There’s plenty to watch still. You don’t need to turn to streaming just yet.

The Santa Clause, The Kennedy Center Honors, and more

Let’s start with something that is for the whole family. ABC has opted for movie night each Sunday, and tonight is no different.

Billie Eilish and the Forum are like birds of a feather. Since 2020, the Los Angeles native has performed in the storied concert venue multiple times, the latest stop being a five-night run that marks her triumphant hometown return.

Eilish kicked off her L.A. stint of the Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour on Sunday, Dec. 15, designating a different opener for each night — The Marías, Towa Bird, Nat and Alex Wolff, Ashnikko and Finneas, respectively. The 23-year-old began the trek in September, playing 36 dates on the North American leg, which wraps in L.A. Following the Grammy Awards on Feb. 2 (the singer is up for seven Grammy nominations), Eilish will head to Australia for the international leg of the tour.

But this week, it’s all about her homecoming at the Kia Forum. Here are highlights from her five-night run, which is scheduled to end on Dec. 21.

Once December hits, it's time to break out the Christmas movies, most of which are thoroughly entertaining, despite the fact that they have the same frustrating plot hole. Production studios have released a wide variety of festive flicks over the years. From classics like It's a Wonderful Life to modern films like The Christmas Chronicles, there are so many entertaining and heartwarming holiday movies to watch at the end of each year. However, some contain an inconsistency that has been repeated time and time again, resulting in frustration during what's supposed to be a joyful and celebratory time.

In early 2024, Gary Goetzman, producer of The Polar Express, told Comicbook.com that a sequel is in the works at Warner Bros. However, the studio has yet to make any official announcements regarding the movie.

Of course, not everything is supposed to be taken at face value in Christmas films. Many of them...

The unconventional holiday classic Bad Santa and its sequel have proven to be a free streaming hit this Christmas, as the movies hold the top two spots on Pluto TV in the U.S. The Billy Bob Thornton-led R-rated comedies certainly aren’t the kind of movies to sit and watch with the kids and your elderly aunt, but that hasn’t stopped it making a huge impression after joining the platform this December.

Despite its position as one of the most irreverent Christmas movies of all time, it seems that the black comedy, with its crude humor and anti-holiday vibe, is proving to be just as much of a hit as family comedy classics such as The Santa Clause, Home Alone, and Elf. Perhaps there is only so much saccharine-laden Christmas cheer that anyone can take, and there really isn’t a better alternative than Bad Santa to counter it.

Disney+ is offering up plenty of great things to watch on Christmas Day!

The streamer just announced the full lineup of programming on December 25 for subscribers, including live programs, new Originals and holiday favorites.

The day will bring five live NBA games and an animated Dunk the Halls alt-cast, available to all Disney+ subscribers, marking the first time NBA games have been available to stream on service.

There will also be a Doctor Who Christmas Special, Star Wars: Skeleton Crew Episode 5, and Episode 4 of the new season of Marvel Animation’s What If…?.

Disney+ will also stream the annual Disney Parks Magical Christmas Day Parade, plus beloved holiday favorites like Home Alone and The Santa Clause.

Quick Links The Santa Clause Had a Planned Release Under Disney’s Hollywood Pictures Label The Santa Clause 2 Removed Tim Allen’s Trademark Sarcasm From the Franchise The Santa Clause TV Show Aligns More With Movies 2 and 3 in the Franchise

It's no secret that it's tough to create a memorable Christmas movie that sticks with audiences for years to come. Many are produced each year, but few become classics that families will watch together time and time again. In 1994, Disney produced an off-beat Christmas movie starring comedian Tim Allen titled The Santa Clause. At the top of his game in the mid-1990s with a hit TV show, Allen seemed like somewhat of an unconventional choice to play Santa Claus. But the film ended up being successful, so successful that it expanded into a franchise in the early 2000s.

What set The Santa Clause apart, however, from its follow-up installments...
