Last Man Standing - TV Show

[Hozzie]

Anyone else watch this?  I can't believe some of the things he says and the network actually allows him.  It is very anti-democrats and he is always taking shots at Obama.  It is very politically incorrect which is one of the reasons I like it so much.  

 

If you haven't seen it, I recommend it highly.  It has Tim Allen who works in an outdoor store and is very pro-gun.  Seems like a perfect match for most on this board.

 

Anyway, if you get a chance, watch it sometime.

I like it, my wife really digs it, the only problem I have is that anytime he is holding a gun on screen he has his finger on the trigger.

Never paid attention to that, but it cracks me up every time he takes a dig at Obama.

[Guest Bonedaddy]

Not a bad show. What I expect from TIm Allen. I dig the political side of it, as well. At least someone in Hollyweird has balls.

I liked season 1. Lost interest when they recast for season 2. Probably should give it another shot.

_{I like it}

[KKing]

We watch it. I love the fact he says a lot of things that I say in my own house

I like it

Big Tim Allen fan here, and I guess he gets away with the scripting because he is still a big draw for the network.

My wife and I watched it first season. Looked like it was getting canceled after the recasts and desperate promotions. I guess it is not going away so we'll probably start DVRing it again. It's refreshing to have a show that is opposite the liberal agenda.

[Guest PapaB]

What are the recasts you guy's are referring to? I know they changed the actress playing the oldest daughter but everyone else is the same, aren't they?

 

Funny show with good jabs at liberals.

[glowdotGlock]

I like it. I watched the pilot thinking it wouldn't last but it has. I've always been a fan of Tim Allen.

[BigK]

I only watch a few sitcoms nowadays and this is one of them. I love the way he digs at his daughter's commie, libtard, hippie baby-daddy.

 

Another really good part of the show is his black neighbor, who he exchanges jabs with. Good-natured and respectful in the end.

Actually, my favorite character is probably the youngest daughter.  Tim is funny of course as well, but they write some great lines for her character.

Yesterday on Netflix, I found the first season, which I had missed.

It's not quite as funny as the 2nd/3rd seasons, but still not bad. I like the oldest daughter from the 1st season better, though.

[hipower]

I kinda like the wife. (wink, wink)

[E4 No More]

I stopped watching it when the oldest daughter championed Obama and the liberal dream making Tim Allen look like an idiot. Quite different from what you saw.

[Hozzie]

I had to bring this back up.  If you don't watch this, it is on now.  Tim Allen is starting back where he left off.  There have been no more than 3 major Obama/Biden digs in the first 10 minutes of the show.  

 

It is a pretty darn funny show if you haven't watched it before.

[strickj]

I really like the show but I do wish it was was less political, though. I watch tv to get away from all of that crap.

i agree with this. The jokes are reaching and trying way too had to be funny. True or not, not really the avenue for that kind of talk. Show is great though.

Can't say I agree with all of this. Yes, tv is an escape mechanism; but does sometimes mirror, or at least have some resemblance to real world life and issues.

As far as the show being the wrong venue, I'd have to disagree. Tim Allen's work has always been rather biting and usually pointed at some particular segment of our society.

And if we can't have humor...we might as well be Democrats.      :stir: :stir:

[musicman]

Thumbs up, HP. I've been a fan of the show for awhile, and am currently watching the premier now, about halfway through it.

So like 80% of sitcoms have all kinds of overt and covert jabs at conservatism throughout, about 19% are void of much political commentary. If we're going to fuss about one show finally speaking a little truth in comedy, I believe we are completely toast.

[down4ttown]

Not really fussing or at least I didn't pick up on it. I think they try way to hard to squeeze those jokes in. The show is great without senseless wit. Let the show flow naturally, don't force it.

[Hozzie]

In this case, even though I would agree it may be forced, I think it almost makes it even better.  As liberal as Hollywood is, it is nice to know that there are some who want make it blatantly obvious that they not only disagree with the libbies, but also make it a point to use their position to be in your face about it.  You can bet that a lot of people around the White House aren't happy that a very popular show is so anti-Obama.

[BigK]

I find the anti-Obama jokes funny as hell. In my circle of friends quips like these come up every day, so it hits close to home for me. At least they aren't as mean-spirited as the anti-Bush jokes were.
