I wrote a long, handwritten love letter to JTT with my friend Meagan when we were probably 10 years old.   All I got back was a lousy fake-signed postcard.  Meh.  But JTT, you’ll be in my heart forever ;)

I’m just wondering what ever happened to him. I had a big crush on him when I was a kid. Jonathan Taylor Thomas

I can answer this! JTT bailed on Home Improvement because he wanted to have the typical kid’s college experience, ended up going to Harvard. What, you didn’t see him as a Harvard guy? After a year or two, he was thinking of bailing, and of all things, visited a much smaller school in Pennsylvania, where I was busy conducting my usual nonsense. The gossip train started up, with all of the fraternities making bids for who would be the one to turn JTT’s biography into an E! True Hollywood Story, but he decided against enrolling, and, as far as I know, graduated from Harvard.

The only role I’ve seen him in since Home Improvement and that Christmas movie is his short stint as undercover police agent in Veronica Mars. He can still play a high schooler with the best of them.
