In a conversation with Entertainment Weekly about reuniting with Home Improvement costar Tim Allen, 72, on Shifting Gears, Dunning recalled overhearing Allen entertaining the idea of bringing Pamela Anderson back to the series in some capacity.
Anderson played Tool Time girl Lisa in 23 episodes of the series before exiting, at which time Dunning joined the cast as Heidi Keppert.
