Season 1 Review: Memo to ABC: Toss out Tim, make the [neighbor] the central character and retitle this mess "Hormonal Improvement." You're welcome. [9 Sep 1991]

Season 1 Review: Without a stronger role for his wife (Patricia Richardson) and some trimming around the edges, like lopping off the sexist tool-girl helper on his TV show, it's mostly a botched job. [12 Sep 1991]

Season 1 Review: Yes, a lot of Taylor goes an awfully little way, "Home Improvement" being a genuinely unfunny transmission devoid of anything much akin to what might remotely be categorized as humor. [17 Sep 1991]
