Assembly Required

Tim, Rich, especially Tim - they add *nothing* to the creations being made, other than not-funny and sometimes rude comments to the guest creators and each other. To make it even worse, the cameras are on Tim and Rich more than 75% of each episode, not the work being done.

The focus should be on the "tinkerers" and their builds. Tim and Rich should be minimum audio, only.

This is a great concept. Tinkerers are so interesting to watch create, but this series needs a major overhaul and rebooting before I'll watch again.

I am 42 years old so Home Improvement is one show I always watched and loved as a teenager. Tim and Richard are still pretty good in this. Solid banter. Most of the makers (contestants) are pretty talented and watchable. As far as April Wilkerson, I actually watched a handful of her YouTube videos 2-4 years ago and found her somewhat talented and interesting. On this show she adds nothing. Her scenes are all completely scripted. Almost cringeworthy actually. I just don't buy for a second that she knows many if any of the "hacks" she does.

An excellent show fun to watch Tim Allen is funny in his own right Richard Karn isn't actually playing the straight man it's just when Tim can play off of him it's real good.

Maybe we had high expectations because of the cast and the concept. However, the humor felt forced and jokes fell flat. Possibly everything was a bit too scripted. Possibly it didn't work because of the Zoom format (necessary I know). It all seemed more suited to a 15 minute YouTube video. Makes me sad, hopefully they'll fix what didn't work. I'd love to see this succeed.

I have been a huge fan of Tim Allen ever since "Home Improvement". Perhaps my expectations were too high, but I was very disappointed with this new show. It sounded like a very interesting concept, and I still believe it could work. But the banter between Tim and Richard was horrible. It sound forced, the jokes were lame, and the timing seemed off. And product placement is one thing, but a whole scene about the sponsor's pickup was just excessive.
