As fans know, Molly played Mandy Baxter, daughter of Mike Baxter on Last Man Standing from 2011 until 2017, when the show was canceled by ABC. He added that they were "kicking around ideas" before they ultimately decided on having Tim Allen's Home Improvement character Tim Taylor meet Allen's Last Man Standing character, Mike Baxter. "At the beginning of the year, Fox had asked, 'Can you do something that's promotable at the start of the season?' We felt like the time jump was promotable, but it's tough," Abbott said. Abbott told TVLine they thought about bringing back Ephraim and Alexandra Krosney, the original Kristin Baxter, for at least a cameo in the finale.
