Here's where to watch sitcom Last Man Standing online, and whether it's available to watch on Netflix, Hulu or Amazon Prime. Tim Allen's most beloved character is probably still Buzz Lightyear from the Toy Story franchise. Allen was pretty much perfect for the cocky Space Ranger toy in the 1995 original, who eventually realizes he is "just" a toy before coming to peace with his place in the universe. Allen would get to explore other sides of Buzz over the course of three sequels and numerous spinoffs, where he brought further depth to the character.
On the big screen, he also scored hits with The Santa Clause franchise and Jungle 2 Jungle. His other best-known character is Tim Taylor from ABC sitcom Home Improvement, which debuted in 1991 and ended up running for eight seasons. Home Improvement is considered something of a classic sitcom today, but he managed to beat that show's run with his most recent series Last Man Standing.
Arriving on ABC in 2011, Last Man Standing cast Allen as Mike Baxter, who works for a sporting goods store and has three daughters with his wife Vanessa (Nancy Travis, Three Men And A Baby). The show didn't receive particularly great reviews, but it proved to be a solid hit and will end its run with Last Man Standing season 9 in 2021. While Last Man Standing isn't currently available to watch on Netflix or Prime, all nine seasons can be found on Hulu.
Every season of Last Man Standing is also available to purchase from platforms like Vudu, Amazon and iTunes. It originally didn't seem like the show would even make it to season 9, with Last Man Standing cancelled by ABC following season 6. This came as something of a surprise since the sitcom had been a reliable performer in terms of ratings. It was later revived by Fox for season 7, which started airing in 2018.
Last Man Standing also gave a starring role to Kaitlyn Dever as Mike's beloved daughter Eve and the actress would later go on to acclaim for her work in Booksmart and Netflix miniseries Unbelievable. While Buzz Lightyear is set to return in the forthcoming prequel film Lightyear, the part won't be voiced by Allen. Instead, Captain America star Chris Evans will take over, with the film instead telling the origin of the "real" Buzz Lightyear who inspired the toy. The movie will be helmed by Finding Dory co-director Angus MacLane and is currently set to arrive in 2022. Last Man Standing's upcoming finale will air in May 2021.
