The Reason Wilson From Home Improvement Never Showed His Face
For eight seasons, Tim “The Tool Man” Taylor could count on his next-door neighbor Wilson to offer him sage and amazingly specific advice on the hit ABC sitcom Home Improvement. So, why did Wilson never show his face?

This shows on Netflix currently. Binge my Binford friends! The stupid shit about the affair is complete shit because they seen his face multiple times lol we didn’t but that was a recurring bit that stuck. Also when Tim Allen was little he had a neighbor that he couldn’t see over the fence and it was kinda to pay homage. Your video sucks and is inaccurate and that’s awful cause your voice is immaculate. Just need better info

It was just a gimmick. It’s not that deep.

I remember a halloween episode where he wore a Phantom of the Opera mask that covered the top of his face and actually showed the bottom of his face just fine.

The research on the topic stops at 2:00. Everything beyond that is useless.

Well….he all but did show his face.
He showed enough that you could pick him out in a line-up.

Home Improvement will always be a favorite of mine. I wanted to be the 4th Taylor boy growing up. Tim Taylor woulda been my dad of choice of any sitcom.

I can't remember which episodes it was, but there are a couple of scenes throughout the show that you can see Wilson's whole face.

I loved this show and the interactions with Wilson were a favourite part of it. So cleverly done and I was always intrigued that we only ever saw part of his face. Good memories

This show was my childhood man. I loved this show. And it taught you so many lessons as well as being a wholesome fun time. God I miss this show.

I thought they finally showed his face in one episode. Either finale episode or at least final season.

I can only imagine how many ladies orgasmed when they got to see Wilson’s chin.

Never liked the New Mandy. Too tall and not brunette or black hair.

…. And here I was thinking that it was something to do with the weeping boils and the third eye. 🙂
Loved the character, loved what he brought to the show.

He was Mr Brown in The Taking of Pelham One Two Three.

Thanks for this. All i ever heard was it's just a 'gimmick' the show used. Hardly a full explanation.

I was told a theory that Wilson is really God. The idea is that in in the bible there is a verse, "No man can see the face of God".

Probably so they didn't have to pay him full pay, only half 🤣

This was such a clever setup.

The idea that he hides his face so Tim's children won't notice a similarity is stupid because his face is only hidden from the audience, not his neighbors.

For years, I thought he was played by Robert Culp

I remember him well in the original version of the film “The Taking of the Pelham 123” that was a great movie and Earl Hindman gave a wonderful performance. I was almost 13 years old and felt so grown up and pleased with myself, it was my 1st time getting past the ticket booth to watch a 14+ movie! What a shame, it was the very end of the movie when Robert Shaw sneezed at the last moment, the apartment door was nearly closed when Walter Mathew heard and recognized the sneeze. RIP Earl Hindman.
PS, I had 5 dollars and I saw the movie, got popcorn, a drink, Milk Duds and Ju Jubes and still went home with change in my blue jeans pocket!

The real issue is that the bottom half of his face is a mass of tentacles, like Cthulhu.

They showed his face a hand til of times.. probably by accident tho. Was watching the show day before yesterday. Check out the episode where he dates a woman who actually thinks of ending it bcuz he’s so distant. 3 or 4 times shown in 1 episode
