“Everything is a possibility,” Allen, 71, shared exclusively the latest issue of the year Us Weekly. “He just came back (for the last episode we shot). He showed up on set.
Allen said he would love nothing more than to share the screen with Thomas43, again, adding, “He's literally my child. I raised this child for eight years in a home improvement program. They are all my children and I feel bad about it.
Before leading the cast of ABC Shifting gearsAllen starred in the movie Home improvement from 1991 to 1999 side by side Thomas, Patricia Richardson, Taran Noah Smith, Zachery Ty Bryan, Richard Karn and Debe Dunning.

Does everyone know what time it is? It was a famous catchphrase from Home Improvement, the ABC sitcom that ran from September 1991 to May 1999. The 30-minute sitcom followed Tim “The Tool” Taylor (Tim Allen) as he hosts a home improvement show called “Tool Time” even though he's not (…)

(My ex-wife on screen) Nancy Travis once told me (something) after I called her on time Last man standing. I said, “Have you talked to the girls (who play our daughters) over the summer?” Then there's this long pause and she's like, 'Tim, those aren't our daughters, and I'm not actually your wife,'” he quipped. “She was so wonderful about it, because sometimes when they were having problems on the show, I'd ask, 'How do you think they feel?' And she said, “Tim, they're actors. We just read (what's on the page, but) she's not really that sad.
On Shifting gearsAllen plays a widowed father opposite the estranged daughter he plays Kat Dennings. The duo marveled at how they 'instantly' made a connection was once cast in the show.
“The director wanted to see how we get along. It never stopped. Kismet was crazy. We were both born on the same day — many years apart,” he said We. “We are different in so many ways. But our approach to comedy is very similar. She cracks me up and I'm not easy that way. Kat can (deliver these lines) with a straight face. Her anger—that she played on 2 broken girls — is very similar to the sharpness that Mike Baxter might have now.
Allen continued: “When we're arguing on screen, it's funny that we interrupt each other and it just comes naturally. I don't know where it comes from. I already adore this man. She and her husband (Andrew VK) are great people. I feel like I've known him for years, as have most of these cast members.
Dennings, 38, felt the same way her bond with Allen.
“It clicked pretty quickly. We had lunch after I accepted the role and I immediately felt like I could trust him for some reason,” she shared in an exclusive interview. We. “And he opened up to me real quick. So I (was) like, 'Okay, this guy is like let me in.'
Trust on set allowed Dennings and Allen to do just that improve your comedy skills. “It felt very organic,” Denning recalled. “And as (filming has) progressed, our scenes are so funny, if I do say so myself. Arguments are my favorite scenes to play because I'm not scared. None of us have any fear. We just go for it and it's so much fun.

While Allen enjoyed working at Shifting gears, he wasn't sure at first he will return to comedy and told We“It was a difficult decision. I did Disney+ Santa Claus series at the time, and I said, “I really can't think about it right now.” Do I want to watch linear TV? I was so depressed about how streaming has hurt television. So if I did, I want to raise it.
