    Tim Allen’s revived comedy is exactly what it always was: a predictable, kind of lazy sitcom built on easy jokes and the odd, occasionally misguided rantings of a middle-aged, wealthy white guy.

    It’s all extremely boring. ... The show remains very thin gruel when it comes to nourishing laughter, and it’s considerably worse when it gets preachy.

    Last Man Standing remains hopelessly mediocre.

High viewership because ofIt is nice that "Last Man Standing" is not another left wing Trump hating show that is inundating the airways. High viewership because of snappy dialogue. Willing to bet some left wing pinko will shoot their liberal mouth off and attack the show because it does not fit their ideology, too bad for them the ratings will determine whether the show will last, and not some commie troll's inept thoughts.… Full Review »

    Glad Last Man is back but it comes back with a cost. The actress playing Mandy is miscast. She has no screen presence and absolutely no actingGlad Last Man is back but it comes back with a cost. The actress playing Mandy is miscast. She has no screen presence and absolutely no acting ability or comedic timing. The other cost is the youngest daughter being “away at school” only does cameos this season, again, losing an interesting character. The oldest daughter is barely tolerable as an actress and the kid playing her son is weak as well.

    The Ryan and Kyle characters are back, but are hardly developed enough to carry a subplot let alone an episode. The older coworkers, including Jay Leno, help but this show only works when the big guy is in the scene.
    So, if you like Tim Allen, he”s back, but the cast of characters overall is weaker and not helping the long term viability of the show.    … Full Review »

    Great show! Watched it from season 1 and couldn't get enough.Love to watch the political reviews that attack a show based upon their ownGreat show! Watched it from season 1 and couldn't get enough.Love to watch the political reviews that attack a show based upon their own twisted lives and views about the current political climate. Couldn't give a fair and decent review if their lives depended on it. Just like ABC cancelling a top show because it didn't fit into their own political rhetoric, doesn't make any sense.
    This is not real life on these shows, it's make believe for entertainment. If you don't like the shows storyline, change the channel.
    Don't understand how we are supposed to take the critic reviews at heart when they also fall along their or their employers political views as well. Again, not an honest review among them.
    Here is one "Its writing is abysmal. Its fractured attempts at comedy are definitely conservative BS, with no redeeming qualities. Its punchline efforts are stupid, to match its target audience I imagine." Can you guess where this persons political lines a drawn?
    Would be a fresh change to review the show based solely on the what is on the screen not on politics.
    I will watch the show and enjoy what is produced and should I get tired of what is shown will quit watching based on that not on the way some politician suggests in an effort to remove shows from television based on their political views or opinions. I know the show introduces political comments or jokes, but that's exactly what they are, "jokes", not real.
    I hope you enjoy the show based on it's entertainment value. I will.    … Full Review »
