When i first saw this show i merited it on it's one episode performances, now after watching them in linear through the seasons, it's become a firm favourite to watch on the box.

I remember watching this show thorughout the 90's when it was aired irregularly on UK television. I didn't really think much more about it at the time, but some ten years later, I discovered it again on abc1 and I totally fell in love with it again.

The trademark brand of Tim Allen comedy mixed with characters who are essentially household names. I can just sit down and watch day-long marathons of this programme and never get bored. It's like a tumour that thrives on my free-time! It's not even that funny!

Top stuff!
