RELATED STORIES

Last Man Standing won’t shy away from hot-button issues in 2020.

As it enters its eighth season (its second on Fox), the Tim Allen comedy will delve into politics and religion in ways that it has not done before — and in ways that have the potential to permanently alter dynamics within the Baxter family.

Ahead of the double-episode premiere (Thursday at 8/7c), TVLine spoke with executive producer Kevin Abbott and series star Molly McCook (aka Mandy No. 2) about what’s coming up in the new year.

MIKE & VANESSA | Mr. and Mrs. Baxter will enter a new phase of their lives as empty-nesters. “It kind of changes everything,” Abbott tells TVLine. “We play on the fact that there are no longer any children in the house throughout the first 10 or 11 episodes.” The premiere is “ultimately about a lack of communication brought on by physical distance,” and Mike’s efforts to remedy that distance to appease Vanessa.

'Last Man Standing' Season 8 - Mike and ChuckEpisode 2 will beget a larger discussion about how Mike and Vanessa plan to spend their free time: “If part of your purpose every day is taking care of these people in the house, and that responsibility goes away, how do you react to that? Is it freeing, or is it somehow a loss?” Rather than sit around and twiddle his thumbs, Mike decides to go into business with Chuck — but their plan to open a classic car renovation service crashes when Joe (recurring guest star Jay Leno) is invited to join in. “There’s a fun little story that spins out from that,” Abbott says.

While Mike fixes cars, Vanessa will take stock of her own booming business. “She discovers that her tutoring business is thriving because the educational system is failing… and she decides to run for [State Assembly],” Abbott reveals. “We always talk a little bit about politics on the show, so it’s a way for us to introduce some subject matter without being too partisan and too issue-oriented.”

KRISTIN & RYAN | In the premiere, Mike invites Kristin, Mandy and Eve over for dinner, where Kristin reveals that — Spoiler alert! — she’s pregnant. The storyline was dictated by portrayer Amanda Fuller’s real-life pregnancy, and Abbott’s desire not to try and write around it. “I’ve been on enough shows where you try to hide it, and it really doesn’t work too well,” he says. (Fuller gave birth to her first child in November.)

'Last Man Standing' Season 8 - Kristin and RyanAnother episode will find “Kristin and the entire family delighting in the fact that this time around, they actually get to walk into church and say, ‘Hey, we’re pregnant!’ because she’s married and she’s got a career, as opposed to the first time [when she was a teenager and had Boyd out of wedlock],” Abbott says. And unlike her first pregnancy, Ryan is actively involved, which the EP says “absolutely comes into play” — the idea of “what it’s like this time versus what it was like last time” Kristin was having a baby, “and just how different it is — both in good and bad ways.”

MANDY & KYLE | While Mike and Vanessa are ecstatic for Kristin and Ryan, Mandy has mixed feelings about her sister’s pregnancy. “She’s dealing with a little bit of jealousy and a little bit of FOMO,” McCook tells TVLine. “Last season, we found out that Mandy and Kyle were having some ‘technical issues’ with trying to get pregnant… She’s happy for Kristin, but she’s hoping for kids herself, and it seems like her sister is having no trouble popping out babies.”

'Last Man Standing' Season 8 - Kyle and MandyWhile Mandy and Kyle’s family planning will factor into Season 8, their careers also will play a big role this year. “Mandy is now fully working at Outdoor Man with everyone,” McCook says. “It’s fun to see her in that environment because she doesn’t quite fit in, but she’s putting her ‘Mandy sparkle’ on everything that she’s doing,” including her new athleisure line.

As for Kyle, he’ll be considering a major life change, which was first hinted at in Season 7. “We have him contemplating going into ministry,” Abbott reveals. “He’s a religious character, which you don’t really see a lot of on TV. We’ve always referred to him as a ‘pure character’ and a ‘pure spirit,’ and we kind of like that notion of him seeing if there’s a calling to do more with his life.” Should he go that route, the series will explore the impact that has on Mandy, and whether she’s fully on board with her husband’s divine decision. “She always worries when Kyle tells her about some change or some new idea that she’s not one-hundred percent [on board] with,” McCook adds, “but she always trusts him and only wants him to be happy.”

Last Man Standing Season 8 will kick off with three weeks of back-to-back originals, beginning Thursday, Jan. 2 at 8/7c, on Fox. Watch an exclusive sneak peek below, then hit the comments with your reactions.

The trailer for Three Identical Strangers

Filmmaker Tim Wardle released it in 2018, but the documentary Three Identical Strangers feels appropriately of its ’80s era. Yes, it has the outfits and the crappy cars, but the film’s first hour in particular has the kind of goofy buddy-movie feel that feels so cozy, you’d swear it was ripped out of fiction like Goonies or Ghostbusters.

These three guys just shy of 20—Bobby, David, and Eddy—recount their perspective on a gradually unraveling mystery involving each of them. It starts when Bobby goes to his first day of community college, and everyone seems to greet him as if they’re old best friends. Then, Eddy’s actual best friend recognizes the confusion on this seemingly familiar face and asks: you don’t have a relative named Eddy, do you? 

Maybe you see where this is going and can already imagine the headlines (or Donahue or Today Show appearances). But Three Identical Strangers continues to play theaters today—and will air on CNN this Saturday, February 2—because the film has so much more to offer than a feel-good tale of lost siblings serendipitously finding each other. The documentary doesn’t hide any supernatural elements like Goonies or Ghostbusters, but something otherworldly may or may not be happening.

New arrivals soon noticed their tanner cheeks and shrunken waistlines — taking on a cultivated air of health, well-being and moral fortitude. They were there because their health had fallen apart, and Dr. John Harvey Kellogg was the man to put them back together. So long as they submitted to his unorthodox ways …

Like bathing in the sun for phototherapy, being blasted with water in an enormous tub, attending lectures on the evils of spicy food, getting jolted by electricity to stimulate muscles or having an enema if they were feeling down. Kellogg’s therapies were all part of his mission to restore the physical and spiritual health of America. The biggest challenge, as he saw it? Curing America’s biggest so-called sin: masturbation. Kellogg believed a clean diet brought one closer to God, so he focused his handiwork on the creation of Kellogg’s Corn Flakes.

The crunchy breakfast cereal was invented in the late 1800s and quickly become known for being high in fiber but low on taste — a perfect cornerstone for Kellogg’s governing philosophy on “biologic living.” Back then, the United States was not a healthy place: The very small food pyramid for the average American involved a lot of meat, fat and alcohol. Indigestion ran rampant, and a health movement arose to fight for America’s moral and dietary fiber. Don Scherencel, director of the Historic Adventist Village, home to the Dr. John Kellogg Discovery Center, says Kellogg never saw a healthy colon in all his years performing surgeries. “Everybody came to Battle Creek because their body wasn’t healthy, and [Kellogg] was there to help.”

There were 101 cereal companies founded right here, because if it said Battle Creek on the box, then it had to be healthy.

For Kellogg, diet and disposition were intrinsically linked, and he believed that moral degradation and the desire to consume heavily spiced foods was a vicious cycle — one that would eventually leave humans physically and morally bankrupt. “Highly seasoned [meats], stimulating sauces … and dainty tidbits in endless variety, irritate [the] nerves and … react upon the sexual organs,” he wrote in Plain Facts for Young and Old. Simply put, the road to hell was paved with dipping sauce.

The solution? Instead of a diet based in animal fats and white starches, Kellogg promoted simpler foods — fiber and whole carbohydrates (cue an era that saw the birth of graham crackers and granola). And his contribution to cereal goodness was a simple, high-fiber alternative devoid of variety, sugar or any other “dainty tidbits” that might react with the sex organs. Simply put, in order to stop the moral decay plaguing America, Kellogg had to get men’s hands out of their pants and into cereal boxes.

Kellogg’s link between morality and diet is not an enormous surprise given that he was a staunch Seventh-day Adventist, a religious movement that started in 1860 and preached strict adherence to vegetarianism and biblical dietary rules. The socially conservative group valued abstinence, other than in the pursuit of babies. Overachiever that Kellogg was, he reportedly abstained from sexual intercourse with his own wife, opting instead to adopt children.

Beliefs aside, Kellogg’s sanitarium did manage to make people feel better. “If it didn’t work, Battle Creek Sanitarium wouldn’t have continued to grow,” Scherencel explains. Famous personalities like Mary Todd Lincoln, Sojourner Truth and Thomas Edison sought Kellogg’s therapies, and the Michigan institution soon became the place to be for resurrecting one’s physical and spiritual well-being at the turn of the last century.

But even more people were desperate to get their hands on Kellogg’s corn flake cereal. This was not just a function of the American desire to start their day with a belly full of fiber; the industrial revolution meant that more people were living in city centers and leaving their houses early for work. In those changing times, convenience became king to American consumers, and cereal was a fast, easy breakfast for people heading to work.

Kellogg began traveling the country and giving lectures on his therapies as an opportunity to spread his gospel of high fiber and biologic living. But Kellogg seemed to care more about his clean-living message than product sales. He went so far as to give his recipe for corn flakes away during his lectures, which led to a number of knockoffs but — unsurprisingly — no noticeable decline in sexual activity. C.W. Post, a former patient of Kellogg and founder of Post Cereals, took the recipe and ran, creating similar high-fiber cereals with added sugar (and minus the sanctimony). “At one point, Battle Creek was known as health city. There were 101 cereal companies founded right here, because if it said Battle Creek on the box, then it had to be healthy,” says Scherencel.

Meanwhile, Kellogg’s brother, Will Kellogg, who was employed as a bookkeeper at the sanitarium, had his hand deep in the cereal box — looking for a profit. While John Harvey Kellogg invented the cereal, his own brother undermined him by founding the Kellogg Company and marketing it to the world. And to add insult to injury, Will Kellogg committed the cardinal sin of adding sugar to the original Kellogg recipe, thus endangering the souls of customers in the most delicious way. The added sugar and stolen recipe were enough to lock the brothers in a brutal feud that lasted for years.

John Harvey Kellogg preached that bland eating was the path to spiritual enlightenment and physical well-being, but ultimately convenience and great taste won out over his moral crusade. And while his brother went on to grow Kellogg Cereals into the breakfast staple it is today, the doctor continued caring for the spiritual and physical well-being of his patients in Battle Creek to his dying day.

After returning from the mission, Wyatt learns that Jessica’s sick brother survived in this timeline. Naturally, Wyatt is suspicious of how that’s possible — his wife says something about stem cells — and who paid for the treatment. He then asks Jessica if there’s something she’s not telling him, to which she replies, “Yeah, there is. I’m pregnant.” What?! Assuming she’s telling the truth, isn’t the Wyatt/Jessica/Lucy triangle complicated enough without adding this twist to it? Or do you think she’s lying to distract Wyatt from her sleeper agent ways?
