Ive watched it a few times.

I cant really get behind it like i did home improvement, but its not a bad show.

I think personally it just doesnt fit in with todays tv landscape. As in, its actually watchable.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
I enjoy it. But I don't watch regularly.

I love it. It cracks me up when they have lines that take you back to the home improvement days. Like when "al" was on there and told him to say hi to your three boys at home and he had to correct him and say its three girls. Also there was that one when "Jill" was one here talking to his wife and how it seems like they are married to the same man lol. I think it got cancelled b/c the episodes would lean toward the "pro-trump" side of issues. Apparently TV companies can't stand when someone sides with a president they don't like. They (tv companies like NBC and ABC) can trash talk trump over and over again but can't talk trash about any other candidate. That show truly cracks me up and seems to nail it right on the head when it comes to issues with daily life lol.

From what I've heard it just switched channels. I saw a commercial for it and Tim was like" It feels weird over here" or something like that.

I like it, but I don't know if I will keep watching. I heard the new season is going to be all messed up with some of the main cast gone.

Yeah, ABC got pissed at Allen (they claim otherwise) and didn't cancel it, so much as they choose not to renew their contract on what was already an expensive show. They had a couple high dollar actors on it, the rights to the show itself were owned by Fox, not ABC, so ABC was paying Fox to be allowed to air the show, and the contract was up for renewal, which meant the actors were going to be asking for raises.

IMO it straddles the very thin line of leaning that way or mocking those that do.

Its a pretty good show though, I still watch it when I come across it.

Been a bit of a dry spell, the antennae turned in a storm and froze in the ground pointed straight north so for most of the winter we had like 4 channels... its been a lot of netflix until recently.

The only reason I have cable is because adding TV to my internet service made the bill lower.

That is why we have a phone line. Don't have a phone hooked up but we do have a line...

That's fine if all you do is browse. I do a few things that a mobile 4G hotspot won't handle very well. I would probably burn through a 50G throttle limit in a day or two, if that.
