During the apprehension, Bryan expressed remorse to the trooper, admitting, I apologize, I have a penchant for alcohol.
Zachery Ty Bryan and the Home Improvement Team

In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Patricia Richardson, who played Allen’s wife on the sitcom, stated her readiness to depart the show following eight seasons.

In a 2023 interview, Zachery Ty Bryan told Entertainment tonight, “Dude, I started drinking when I was 14. Back then, I was going to nightclubs and they would just let me in because I was the kid from Home Improvement.”
