#4: Patricia Richardson Now
After the series ended, Richardson continued acting in TV movies and dramas like Strong Medicine and The West Wing. She’s also appeared in stage productions and occasional sitcom cameos, always bringing the same warmth and intelligence that defined Jill Taylor.

Beyond acting, she’s been active in advocacy work, focusing on women’s health and labor rights in the entertainment industry. Though she’s kept a lower profile than some co-stars, Richardson remains deeply respected — a timeless example of what made Home Improvement more than just laughs.
