Tim has an unhealthy obsession with Halloween and Christmas, going to extraordinary lengths to scare others and competing with "Doc Johnson" in the annual neighborhood Christmas lighting contest, which he has never won. He generally knows what he is doing more than Tim, and he seems to have a better knowledge of tools and home improvement than Tim. In the first episode of Tool Time, he was described as a "master plumber" by Tim Taylor.
Another gag is that Tool Time fans believe his many accidents are staged to show people what not to do. However, many of Tim's modified inventions work but are often too powerful, like his new ice cube dispenser, his leaf sucker machine, his gas-powered wheelchair and his gas-powered garbage disposal. Sexism is prejudice or discrimination based on a person's sex or gender. Polly Dean Holliday is an American actress who has appeared on stage, television and in film. The New York Knickerbockers, commonly referred to as the Knicks, are an American professional basketball team based in the borough of Manhattan, in New York City.

Young Al has mechanical talent-constructing a model crane out of wood. Al was engaged to an orthodontist named Ilene for a time, but they ended up calling off the wedding. He also dated Greta Post who appeared a few times in the series. Al might have been based on Norm Abram of This Old House because of the resemblance (flannel shirts, beard, pudgy, etc.) and the fact that Al does all the "real work" on the Tool Time show . In the episode "No, No, Gadot", Tim and Al were arrested for scalping hockey tickets.
In Season 6, it is revealed that his cousins are the Wilsons of The Beach Boys. He has a grown niece named Willow Wilson , who appeared regularly in the seventh season when she moved in with him for a while. His usual greetings are "Well, hi-dee-ho ..." or "Hi ho, there neighbor" or "good neighbor" when greeting Tim, "neighborette" when greeting Jill, and "Taylor lad" when greeting the Taylor boys.

He never called Tim by his name but instead called him "Hey You". Karen – a feminist friend of Jill who clashes with Tim over male-female dynamics in relationships. The character moved to California after Season 2, as Randle started her role of Amy Matthews on Boy Meets World, another ABC sitcom. Tim also often pokes fun at Al's mother, Alma Borland, who is never seen but is apparently severely overweight.
Although he often struggled with his school work, he has extraordinary athletic ability, especially playing soccer. Throughout the series, he was offered numerous opportunities to make a career out of soccer, including the offer to play for a professional team in England . This was rejected when his parents refused to allow him to give up college to play professional soccer.

He also is very serious about his job, unlike Tim, who often jokes and messes up the project. Although Tim is the one who messes up most of the projects on Tool Time, Al is often the one who is blamed for the mishap, or is injured by the mishap. On rare occasions Al would cause a mishap of his own, but these were more due to overcalculating than Tim's attitude of "more power".
He did not return to the show for the series finale , only appearing in archived footage. In early seasons, Wilson was always seen standing on the other side of Tim's backyard fence as the two engaged in conversation, usually with Wilson offering sage advice as Tim grappled with his problems. In later seasons, a running joke developed in which more and more creative means were used to prevent Wilson's face below the eyes from ever being seen by the audience. Also, in later seasons, Wilson's full name was revealed to be Wilson W. Wilson, Jr. Brad, popular and athletic, was often the moving factor, who engaged before thinking, a tendency which regularly landed him in trouble.
Taylor's "arch enemy", so to speak, is the real-life home improvement specialist, Bob Vila. One episode sees Tim competing against Bob Vila in a lawnmower contest for charity. Tim installs a jet engine on his machine, which results in Tim causing unintended chaos and destruction.
Al then met a woman named Trudy in season seven and married her in the finale episode in 1999. His mother is alive for the entire series; however, his father died when Tim was eleven years old. There has always been some disparity between how many brothers Tim has. On several occasions in the later seasons, it is mentioned that Tim has four brothers, but in earlier seasons he is stated to have five.
Witty but flippant, Tim jokes around a lot, even at inappropriate times, much to the dismay of his wife. Jill, Tim's wife, is loving and sophisticated, but she is not exempt from dumb moves herself. Family life is boisterous for the Taylors, with the two oldest children, Brad and Randy, tormenting the much younger Mark, all while continually testing and pestering each other.
Al Borland has a beard and always wears plaid shirts when taping an episode, reflecting Norm Abram's appearance on This Old House. Bob Vila appeared as a guest star on several episodes of Home Improvement, while Tim Allen and Pamela Anderson both appeared on Bob Vila's show Home Again. Each episode includes Tim's own Binford-sponsored home improvement show, called Tool Time, a show-within-a-show. Harry Turner — Owner of "Harry's Hardware", where Tim spent a great deal of his time and in which Al eventually became part owner. He is married — not-so-happily — to Delores , and the couple bad-mouths one another behind their respective backs on every occasion. Also has four sons, one Dennis , with whom he has a somewhat rocky relationship.
He once had a relationship go sour when his commitment to laissez-faire capitalism conflicted with his girlfriend's neo-Marxism. He once ate 1,000 pancakes covered with mustard in a 9-hour span. When Pamela Anderson departed, Lisa was replaced by Heidi, a master electrician and “Tool Girl” played by Debbe Dunning.
On the TV front, he returned to the sitcom world in 2017, leading and executive producing Last Man Standing. Allen was married to Laura Deibel from 1984 to 2003 and the pair share one daughter, Katherine, who was born in 1989. He married Jane Hajduk in 2006 and the duo welcomed their daughter, Elizabeth, in 2009. Alma Borland – Al's unseen, overbearing, obese mother; is the butt of many of Tim's jokes; dies of a sudden heart attack in Season 8 when Al informs her he is going to marry Trudi. Samantha Hayes – A college student who dated Brad, although she was four years his senior, which troubled Jill and Tim. Marie talks about her struggles with her weight and about seeing a therapist.
He often forgets a crucial step, ignores instructions, makes ill-advised modifications or comes to inaccurate conclusions. Debra "Debbe" Dunning is an American actress, model, executive producer, host and spokesperson. Lisa was a minor recurring character in the show's first two seasons.
