Cast of 'Home Improvement' Reunites for Tim Allen's 'Shifting Gears'

‘Home Improvement’
Epic Cast Reunion with Tim Allen!!!

The cast of “Home Improvement” just reunited — and they certainly nailed down their promo video!

Check out the clip posted to the official TikTok page of “Shifting Gears” — Tim Allen‘s current ABC series. It shows Tim finding stars Patricia Richardson, Richard Karn and Debbe Dunning trying to get into the stage where “Home Improvement” was filmed for 8 seasons.

He alerts them that they’ve changed locations and ushers them into a new stage … opening the door for his former co-stars — and symbolically commencing their collaboration for Season 2 of “Shifting Gears.”

For those who don’t know … Patricia played Jill, the wife of Tim’s Tim “Toolman” Taylor, on “Home Improvement.” Richard portrayed Tim Taylor’s best friend and co-host of their home-improvement show, “Tool Time,” Al Borland. Finally, Debbe joined the cast for the show’s 3rd season to replace Pamela Anderson — and played the “Tool Time girl” Heidi Keppert.

It’s unclear what fans can expect of the reunion … but they’ll likely pull out all the tools in their boxes to make it special.

Remember, Patricia told us a few years back there would “never” be an ‘HI’ reunion … so this is pretty big.

It appears Tim and Jill’s on-screen kids — Brad (Zachery Ty Bryan), Randy (Jonathan Taylor Thomas) and Mark (Taran Noah Smith) — didn’t make the cut this time around.

As you know … Zachery has continued working consistently on film sets as an adult, but has run into several legal woes over the years, including various assault, robbery and harassment charges, plus a felony DUI in 2024.
