Disappointingly Boring

I'm not really sure what the point of the show is. It seems to be an attempt to recreate the hilarious banter between Tim and Richard in Home Improvement. Problem is, most of that was scripted. This is not. Put any two random people in a shop and tell them to aimlessly goof off, and it would be about as funny.

The other point seems to be to explain VERY basic power tool concepts, -so basic that if you know anything about power tools, there's nothing new. And if you know absolutely nothing, you still don't learn anything beyond an elementary school level. Ex: In e2, you learn that pneumatics use pressurized air, and hydraulics use pressurized fluid. Wow.

There's also some nonsense about having a maker put together some creative tool, but it's only shown in brief segments at the beginning of the end of the show, so you don't really get to see that either.

I wanted to like this, but until it finds some kind of direction, it's basically pointless and just a big commercial for whatever company's tools they're spotlighting in that episode.

Terrible, no content

I didn't have very good expectations after seeing the Assembly Required show last year and this one was even worse. No worthwhile content whatsoever. It's basically a commercial for Google and whatever company is showing their tools. The dialogue is so clearly scripted and not funny at all. Seems like a weak attempt to draw on the allure of Home Improvement. April's talents are wasted, her YouTube videos are so much better.

Real Life Tool Time

Show is very fun its just like watching a real life tool time, They even do some stuff on the tool time set. They go out in the field and get to see some of the big tools used to make every day life go by. You get to see Tim And Richard play with tools in the shop ( mostly the tool time set) And he has people make tools like the tool he talked about he wanted in home improvement, a tool to suck the leaves right off the trees. If you like home improvement and tool time give this show a try. You even get to see some of the last man standing set to. Call why learning history of the tools they are trying.

Please Bring Back Assembly Required

Assembly Required was engaging for the entire episode, a lot of fun, and let Tim and Richard operate in a real life Home Improvement environment. I couldn't get through one half episode of More Power. It isn't educational or engaging and you don't know what the objective is when they run around slicing watermelons with hydraulics. There seems to be no clear vision for this show. I'm sure Assembly Required wasn't that expensive to produce. Please have Tim, Richard, and April return to a formula that was working. I watched the entire first season of Assembly Required, I don't think I'll get through one episode of More Power. Disappointed like some other reviewers.

Great Show

The show has been getting better with each episode. By episode 7-10 it caught its stride. I would like to see a little more of the Maker's actually doing the build. I wouldn't cut down any content I would increase the length of the show. 20 minutes is just not enough time. I liked Assembly Required also. That's why I would like to see more of the builds. Also use April for more than the simple demo and explanation person. The episodes where she is more involved are even more enjoyable. She has great skills maybe even let people know about her YouTube channel so they can see what she does. I watched her before Assembly Required and was happy to see her involvement, would like to see more. Keep it up. Very enjoyable. Can't wait for next season.

Boring and pointless.

Boring and pointless. Disappointed. I expected it to be interesting instead paint drying was better. Nothing makes it worth a watch. Figured Tim and Richard would have better chemistry but they look like they just meet.

This is awful

I really like Tim and AL but the show sucks. Tool Time was awesome I still watch the old shows maybe they should go back to that format. Have the same 3 people in it that was a great show.

Love

I love this show so much that this is the first review I've ever written this so much reminds me of tool Time it's funny the comedy I love it just how both of them are in great moods and of course they need an assistant. I hope that they continue to keep the show going instead of cutting it like most other shows.
