Actor, Stephen Tobolowsky was originally slated to play Tim Taylor’s sidekick in ‘Tool Time’.

However, Stephen couldn’t fit it into his schedule at the time because he was filming a movie. And once again we must thank the karma gods, as the below clip shows, Al was funny as heck!

8. ‘Toy Story’ and Binford.

There was even a nod towards this show when we see this toolbox with ‘Binford Tools’ on it which was the name of the tool company that sponsored the show ‘Tool Time’.

The clip below shows that the references didn’t stop there either!

9. Video Game.

Super Nintendo even had a game that you may remember called ‘Home Improvement: Power Tool Pursuit’. Or, maybe not!

10. The mysterious Wilson.

After the taping of each episode, Earl Hindman would continue to cover his face during each curtain call with a mini picket fence so that the audience would never see his face.

11. Called it quits.

Even though ABC wanted Home Improvement to continue for a ninth season, both Tim and Patricia turned down the generous offer because she didn’t want to do it for the money and he wouldn’t do the show without her.
