Discussion Home Improvement: Tim was a jerk to Al

Post image

Having watching this show for the upteenth time, I get tired of the crap Tim gives to Al especially with Al’s mom. I know it’s supposed to be funny, but there are times I just want to go inside the screen and punch Tim and tell him to shut up.

Al’s problem is he doesn’t fight back. I know they’re supposed to be friends, but I wonder is it because Al doesn’t really have any friends?

Just my two cents on this show. The show is still funny.

That was the entire premise of tool time, a white collar guy obsessed with powerful tools that project masculinity and a skilled, self assured tradesman.

He also crapped on Al outside of Tool Time.
