It Was Pamela Anderson’s First Recurring Role
The future “Baywatch” superstar had just moved from Vancouver to Los Angeles (yes, she’s Canadian) when she got the gig as the first “Tool Time Girl.” She starred for two seasons as Lisa. Before that, Anderson had been modeling and appeared in “Playboy” as the Playmate of the Month. “Home Improvement,” though, was her first acting gig.

She also had a couple appearances on “Married… With Children” and “Charles in Charge.” You can even see Anderson modeling in the Binford Tools calendars in the “Tool Time” set background. Anderson ended up leaving “Home Improvement” when she was cast as CJ Parker on the show that made her career. But she eventually went back to “Home Improvement,” in the season six finale, “The Kiss and the Kiss-off.”
