Tim Allen returns for a third season as Mike Baxter in Last Man Standing, a show about everything that families in America are dealing with today -- all filtered through the blunt "man's man" comedy of an iconic American character. Mike continues to be surrounded by forces seeking to challenge his ideals on just about everything in which he believes.

Tim Allen Fans Rejoice
If you're a Tim Allen fan then this is for you. The ensemble cast has perfect chemistry,especially the two younger daughters Mandy and Eve, and the comedic content never gets dry from season to season. Kyle, the ever present and butt of endless jokes both receiving and self-inflicted is an adored character that never fails to compliment every episode.There is political overtone in almost every episode, a right-leaning position, which adds to the diversity of witty remarks and a hilarious relationship with Ryan, a left-leaning character, the father of his grandson Boyd. This season really picks up the pace and truly begins a well-deserved successful run of the series well into and through Season 6. The mix of episode topics and the inclusion of all cast members, is a testament to the creative style of the writers.All-in-all, it is a funny show and a great cast, and Tim Allen at his best.

Wonderful show...
Wonderful show, great humor with a cast that fulfills their roles. I love Mandy, although I would pull her hair out if she was my own daughter. Eve is such a great contrast to her. The small bit of casting using Jonathan Taylor Thomas is a fun as well. (I will leave that for the reader to look up, in case of spoilers.) The conservative approach to issues is refreshing to me. There is certainly a politically conservative flavor, yet the show addresses current issues in a fair way, generally presenting a view of both sides, without making conservative ideas look stodgy. In this, it does a nice job of contrasting some of the over-the-top liberal issues against a bit of good old plain common sense. Tim Allen is, as always, a great comedian.

The Best Series Out There
For some reason, I missed this gem of a show when it was on ABC and never noticed it until FOX picked it back up this season so of course I wanted to get caught up. CMT runs them nightly, but I often noticed that things seemed to be missing. When I started collecting the season box sets, my suspicions were confirmed. CMT seemed to be editing out things they found too controversial and sometimes dropped entire episodes completely. These box sets are a must for any fan of "Last Man Standing", the only show on TV it seems that is brave enough to show life from anything other than an SJW perspective...and it's a big hit. Imagine that.

Another great season!
Another great season of LMS! The conservative, patriotic leanings of Tim Allen's character Mike Baxter are a pleasure to watch. The increased presence of neighbor Chuck Larabee this season provides a humorous counterpoint to Mike. Especially fun because as socio-economic equals, their shots at each other really resonate. So much better than Mike's exchanges with eldest daughter Kristin and her boyfriend Ryan. As another reviewer pointed out, Kristin and Ryan are just plain annoying, and the show wouldn't miss a beat if these two characters were written out altogether. The recasting and reshaping of Kristin after season one was a mistake. In season one Kristin was portrayed as a sweet, intelligent girl who was handling her situation as a single mom with hard working dignity. Scenes with Kristin and Ryan now are a good time to raid the fridge. But the rest of the cast makes up for this one complaint. Hector Elizondo as Mike's boss and friend Ed is always a treat to watch, as is perennial Baxter boyfriend Kyle, whose uncluttered good nature is warm and funny. Nancy Travis as Mike's wife Vanessa is perfect, and younger daughters Mandy and Eve are always funny, and well-played by Molly Ephraim and Kaitlin Dever, respectively. Also the return of Robert Forster as Mike's dad, Bud, is a welcome one, after not appearing in season two. Hope this show continues for several more years, it deserves to!

Vintage Tim Allen
last man standing is a great show with Tim Allen...Pure gold with how he can deliver and cut through the crap. Surprisingly he and Nancy Travis work well together...the two youngest daughters excellent. The eldest daughter and her boyfriend are a big mistake. I don't find either of the actors remotely funny and they are just annoying. Its a pity that they turn up so often. The actress who played the eldest daughter in the first series was so much better. The character they introduced as the boyfriend in the last episode of the first series was also funnier...The character now is just a prig and seems to be there only to disagree continually with anything the Tim Allen character says.When they are not in s scene though the show is pure gold

Fun sit-com
I started getting into this show a couple years ago. I really enjoy it. Its comforting and easy to watch. I love all the tie ends Tim Allen loves putting in some episodes from his past work. Tim Allen is a national treasure! He is Santa Claus, Buzz Light year and Tim the Tool man. The best!
