Al is asked to host his own How-To videos and he asks Tim to be his director. Tim quickly agrees, but as soon as they begin filming Al suspects he may have a problem on his hands: with only two days to complete the video, Tim’s grandiose style has caused them to go over budget and over schedule. With no other solution available to him, Al must fire Tim.

Meanwhille, Jill gets a new computer.

Jill finds herself frantic at trying to juggle school and her home life when one petty dispute after another delays her from her school work. The boys can’t seem to mediate their own arguments, and Tim’s rigid routines force her to be flexible—but no more. After speaking with Delores and Marge, Jill has a nightmare of her hellish dystopian future where Tim has derailed all of her hopes and dreams, and this forces Jill to say something. However, Tim doth protesteth too much, and has dreams of his own about how his routines will shape him into a superhuman in his twilight years.

Hear ye, hear ye!

Step right up and play the game the likes the world has never seen!

We invite you to play along! Can you guess the film based on these categories: Sex & Nudity; Violence & Gore; Profanity; Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking; and Frightening & Intense Scenes.

See how Truman does on this episode of IMDb Parents Guide!

This Week on Home Improvement…

Tim Taylor (Tim Allen) and Al Borland (Richard Karn) kick off a new season of Tool Time with a visit to the USS Constellation aircraft carrier to pay tribute to its powerful engines. But back at the Taylor house, there’s a force at work that’s even more poweful than an aircraft carrier’s engine: Teenaged hormones. When Jill (Patricia Richardson) catches Brad (Zachery Ty Bryan) and his girlfriend Angela doing some steamy studying in his bedroom, she grows concerned that her son needs to get “the talk” about sex – and he needs to hear it from his father. While Tim struggles at first to find the right metaphors, he’s eventually able to teach Brad a heartfelt lesson about why it’s important to cool his jets.

About Grunt Work
Grunt Work is a comedy podcast where each week we cover an episode of the TV show ‘Home Improvement’.

But it’s so much more than that; it’s an examination of masculinity, a time capsule, and “metaphor for how we live[d] in the 90s”. Often, it’s a descent into madness.

Is Grunt Work for You?
We recommend our show for listeners who enjoy comedic takes on pop culture, often veering into the obscure and highfalutin; the perfect blend of stupidity and wit.

You may enjoy Grunt Work if you enjoy:

  • Mystery Science Theater 3000
  • The Flop House
  • Judge John Hodgeman
  • The Golden Guys
  • The Greatest Generation
  • Frasier and/or Cheers
  • Making Flippy Floppy
  • Birdemic: Shock and Terror
  • Perfect Dark (N64)
  • The Ultimate Warrior
