Shit Tim Allen's done/said? He was a coke smuggler who rated out his friends, Said being a republican in Hollywood is like "Being a Jew in Hitlers Germany" had a weird angry outburst on some girl about evolution and that's the stuff off the top of my head.

So he's an idiot. Did we like him for his intelligence or because he grunts well and was in that movie where he stole a garbage disposal?

Did we like him, or did some people like his portrayal of certain characters in various comedies?

I'm sorry, but if it is life in prison or giving up the names of your dealers (not necessarily friends), I don't think many of us would've chosen differently. The statement about republicans in Hollywood is way over the line though. I scanned through his wiki page and it says that he condemned the Jan 6th attacks and was generally not impressed with how different republicans behave - so it seems there is at least some light.
