A Tim Allen crossover? Actor talks 'Home Improvement' costars on 'Shifting Gears' Season 2

The Season 2 premiere of “ Shifting Gears ” is packed with power – star power, that is. The ABC sitcom will rev up the nostalgia on its Oct. 1 premiere (ABC, 8 ET/PT and streaming the next day on Hulu) when Tim Allen reunites with former costars from his '90s hit series “Home Improvement.” The eight-season sitcom centered on Tim “The Tool Man” Taylor (Allen), who hosted a renovation show with flannel enthusiast Al Borland (Richard Karn) and their lovely assistant Heidi (Debbe Dunning).

"Chad Powers" creators Glen Powell and Michael Waldron explain football reality and hard knocks in their new Hulu comedy series.

Two-time Super Bowl champion Eli Manning, who created the Chad Powers character for a 2022 "Eli's Places" sketch, and ex-NFL QB brother Peyton Manning, added quarterback training to their executive producing duties for the six-part series. But that expertise came with frequent mocking about Powell's football-throwing style seen in the famed dogfight football game in "Top Gun: Maverick."...

Government shutdown enters first day as Trump and Democrats spar, live updates

The federal government shut down began at midnight on Oct. 1 as President Trump and Democrats blamed each for failing to reach an agreement. WASHINGTON ‒ The federal government shut down at midnight on Oct. 1 as President Donald Trump and congressional Democrats blamed each other for failing to reach an agreement in a bitter standoff over funding the government. It marks the 15th government shutdown since 1981, and there’s no immediate end in sight as congressional Democrats demand health-care policy changes that Trump and Republicans have refused to entertain. Looming over the fight is the threat of mass layoffs, with Trump saying "vast numbers" of federal workers could be terminated. The White House Office of Management and Budget said in a recent email that workers whose activities are “not consistent with the President’s priorities” are a target. A pair of unions representing federal workers filed a lawsuit Sept. 30 over the threat.
