When we watch a sitcom that has been on for many years, we get accustomed to the people who play the parts. It can be difficult to separate them from those individuals, as they are such a big part of our lives.
One of the shows that we remember from the 90s is Home Improvement. There was so much to enjoy about the show, as Tim Allen played the part of Tim Taylor, who was the tool man.
Taylor was married on the show and had three sons and he was the host of a television tool show, known as Tool Time. He also had a guest star on that show, Al Borland, who was played by Richard Karn.
One other unforgettable part of the show was the Tool Time girl. Although more than one person may have played that part, the original was Pamela Anderson and she was on for a total of 23 episodes. Lisa was her name on the show and she was even on the pilot episode.
Anderson has written a new memoir entitled ‘Love, Pamela.’ She said that on the first day on the set of Home Improvement, she had a rather unusual experience and it was uncomfortable as well. She said: “On the first day of filming, I walked out of my dressing room, and Tim was in the hallway in his robe. He opened his robe and flashed me quickly — completely naked underneath. He said it was only fair, because he had seen me naked. Now we’re even. I laughed uncomfortably.”
Anderson was 23 years old at the time as it happened in 1991. If it took place, Allen was probably talking about seeing her Playboy spread before she acted on the show. She was even playmate of the month.
Then again, Allen says that the allegation is not true. He said: “It never happened. I would never do such a thing.”
Regardless of whether it is true or not, Anderson was uncomfortable and she left the show. She stayed through 1993 but then decided to focus on her part in Baywatch. The new Tool Time girl, Debbie Dunning was given a last name, as she was known as Heidi Keppert. She stayed with the show through the final episode in 1999.
