Mike Baxter, meet Tim Taylor.
Last Man Standing is staging a Home Improvement crossover, of sorts, for its final season.
Star Tim Allen will reprise his former TV role as the Taylor family patriarch and Tool Time host for a surreal Last Man Standing episode which has Allen playing both sitcom dads at the same time.
The episode’s setup: “The Baxters see double when Vanessa hires a home improvement repairman who bears an uncannily resemblance to Mike, who is struggling with an idea for his Outdoor Man 10th Anniversary vlog.”
Here's a preview of the season which includes a snippet from the episode, titled "Dual Time":
Allen's Home Improvement was a hit comedy series that ran for eight seasons on ABC starting in 1991.
The ninth and final season of Last Man Standing premieres at a special day and time, Sunday, Jan. 3 at 8:30 p.m. following the debut of Mayim Bialik's new comedy Call Me Kat. Then the show shifts to Thursdays at 9:30 p.m. on Jan. 7.
