Ugh, caught, and was just about 10 minutes of the Tim Allen show Shifting Gears.......

and switched channels. Stupid, didn’t like ANY of the characters and of course hate Tim Allen.

Tim Allen hasn't done anything remotely funny since then. Home Improvement was good because the other characters were funny and they had great writers.

Another clumsy, tone-deaf attempt at conservative ‘comedy’.

They’ll never understand that good comedy punches up, not down. “Woke” is an awareness of, and opposition to, injustice, pettiness, vindictiveness, and abuse of power.

Ranting against “woke” allies one with the oppressors, and oppression is never funny.

As a fan of the Star Trek universe, it is a funny and insightful poke at the franchise, and he does a good job in it.
