Tim Allen discusses 'Last Man Standing' season ending earlier than planned

'Last Man Standing' star Tim Allen talks about how the show is wrapping earlier after production was shut down due to COVID-19 pandemic.

Pamela Anderson said former "Home Improvement" co-star Tim Allen had "no bad intentions" when he allegedly flashed her on their first day of filming in 1991 as she claimed in her memoir, "Love, Pamela." 

"Tim is a comedian, it’s his job to cross the line," Anderson told a Variety reporter via text about the allegation after an interview with the outlet published Thursday. "I’m sure he had no bad intentions."

The 55-year-old actress admitted that "[t]imes have changed, though. I doubt anyone would try that post #MeToo. It’s a new world."

In her book, Anderson wrote that she had stepped out of her dressing room where the sitcom was shot and found Allen in the hallway.

"He opened his robe and flashed me quickly — completely naked underneath," Anderson alleged in an excerpt of her memoir, according to Variety. "He said it was only fair, because he had seen me naked. Now we’re even. I laughed uncomfortably."
