My problems with home improvement. iin?
Before we start, I realize it's a TV show, and I realize ALL TV shows have at least some elements of inaccuracy. Home Improvement, however, has more than I can bear in one show.
1. Tool Time is a cable access show, this is Tim's job and the family's sole source of income. How can Tim afford a nice home and to keep his family so well in nice clothes, cars, food, entertainment, AND he's building a '33 Ford Roadster from the ground up. Not to mention, he breaks things every day, how can he afford to replace this stuff?
2. They frequently used computers on the show, and did things that, in that time and even a decade later, were FAR from possible for the average person.
3. Tim is always installing new features in his home in a matter of a day or so. Besides the time factor, how can he afford it?
4. How can he keep his job as Binford's spokesman when he has such a dreadful track record of incompetence and destruction? No reputable business would keep him around.
5. He's an insurance nightmare! There's no way anyone would insure him or his home after even 1/8 of the incidents he has caused.
6. They always had spectacular Halloween episodes. Where the hell did average people get access to materials and the funds to have costumes that were so great that even today they can't be replicated without a professional make-up/costume artist and a TON of cash?
7. Their home and furnishings are very "90's cool". Everything in that home would've had to have been newly done and purchased. How can he afford that?
8. How has Tim not DIED in a work related accident?
9. Why does Tim wear nice jeans or Dockers and sometimes a button-down shirt when working?
10. How can Tim's eyebrows get burnt off so often yet it's never depicted accurately?
11. Why hasn't Al ever surpassed Tim in rank? Or, why hasn't Al murdered Tim yet?
12. How can Tim blow the speakers but later on the same speakers are still there?
Then, there's one MOST depressing element of all. Wilson, the neighbor, whose face viewers never got to fully see. This is depressing because in these days, this can never happen ever again. All we'd have to do is google the actor's name and get a thousand images of him, or if his information was restricted there'd still be many people who knew him that would spill the beans. Back then this was possible and I LIKE that fact, and knowing it's not possible now is very sad.
is it normal to be sad over Home Improvement?
