Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. During the pilot episode, what appliance does Jill tell Tim not to touch?

Answer: Dishwasher

After Jill explicitly tells Tim not to touch the dishwasher, he breaks it in an attempt to make it more powerful-more of a "man's" dishwasher.

2. In the episode "It's My Party," which ran during the fourth season, Tim builds Randy a dance floor for his first coed party. How many layers of wax does Tim put on it?

Answer: 16

At the party, Randy decides to ask a girl named Michelle to dance, but she falls and hurts her ankle. She has a very protective father who nearly didn't let her go to the party, so he's not impressed with the news and the fact that Tim runs around the house with no trousers on.

3. Who plays the Taylors' wise neighbor Wilson Wilson?

Answer: Earl Hindman

Richard Karn plays Al Borland, Tim's assistant on 'Tool Time.'
Jim Labriola plays Benny, Tim's friend who can often be found eating doughnuts at Harry's Hardware.
William O'Leary plays Marty Taylor, Tim's brother.
Earl Hindman is actually camera shy, that's why we never see his whole face.

4. Which one of the Taylors has to get glasses in the fourth season?

Answer: Mark

Mark eventually gets contacts. Jill also gets glasses in the seventh season.

5. Who gets to live in the basement room that Tim builds?

Answer: Randy

After Randy decides that he can't stand Mark after his history paper is ruined, Tim decides to do a "Tool Time" project in his home and convert the basement into a room for Randy. After the room is finished, Randy has difficulty admitting that he's afraid to sleep there by his lonesome self.

6. In the episode "Bell Bottom Blues," Brad gets teased because Tim hugs him in front of school. What nickname did Brad get because of this?

Answer: Diaper Baby

Tim doesn't understand why Brad doesn't want him to hug him until he has a hugging session on "Tool Time". They both agree on a code language instead of caring words.

7. In "Alarmed by Burglars," who has their house broken into?

Answer: Wilson

After a burglary at Wilson's, Jill allows Tim to go all out in buying a fancy security system for their home. But it's most alarming when they keep setting it off themselves. Wilson retaliates by taking up a petition among the neighbors.

8. Who is the other tool show host that Tim is always competing with?

Answer: Bob Vila

Sadly, Tim is never able to beat Bob in their competitions.

9. Which cast member leaves during the eighth and final season?

Answer: Jonathan Taylor Thomas

Jonathan's character, Randy, goes to Costa Rica for a school program. Jonathan actually decided to leave so he could focus on his education.

10. What famous personality never appeared on "Home Improvement"?

Answer: Ray Romano

Jimmy Carter appears as himself as a volunteer for the Habitat for Humanity project. Dan Aykroyd plays Reverend Mike Webber who goes bar hopping with Al. Drew Carey plays Sy, a man who works for Animal Control. Tim Allen also makes a guest appearance as himself on "The Drew Carey Show."
