I've always thought Tim Allen has been pretty mediocre as an actor. What I miss is the days when he used to do stand-up comedy on HBO. I mean, most women probably didn't care for his stand-up routines too much, but us guys could totally relate to his routines! The other thing that made it great was he could be as vulgar as he cared to be. Home Improvement is probably the closest thing to his old stand-up stuff, but since it had to be squeaky clean for TV, it just isn't the same. It's too bad he couldn't have stayed diversified like George Carlin and continue to do both. Carlin did pretty ok in the acting dept., and his stand-up was friggin awesome til the day he died!
