Twitter users began pouring in their love and support online after Allen finished posting photos. “Will miss this show! Loved it as much as I loved Home Improvement. Can’t wait to see future projects,” one user writes. Another says, “As someone who grew up watching ‘Home Improvement’ with her parents and now watching ‘Last Man Standing’ with my own family, thank you for the memories and all the laughs. My favorite version of family time!”
A last fan adds, “This is the very definition of bitter/sweet. I’m sad it has come to an end, however I’m most appreciative you brought us along allowed us to experience a small part. I’m also happy that you, the cast, and production crew could put it to bed the right way. Thanks!”
