In episode #7 of the sixth season of "Home Improvement" (the episode's name is "I was a Teenage Taylor"), Randy, played by Jonathan Taylor Thomas, opens the front door on Halloween and finds two kids dressed up in costumes. One of them wears a suit of young Simba and when Randy hands out some candy, he chuckles and gives one goody to the astronaut and seven (!) to young Simba, saying "... and seven for the cute little lion."

I found another Lion King reference on Home Improvement [episode titled "Say Goodnight, Gracie"-- 7th season, 15th episode]. In one scene, Tim and a little girl named Gracie are playing with some Lion King animals. Randy gets a chance to tell Gracie about "his" experiences impersonating a lion cub. Tim says, "Oh sorry, I've never been a lion cub before." Then Randy replies, "Well, I have. And let me tell you. It's a tough gig. Everybody expects you to be king."

One day, while watching "Home Improvement" ( the episode where Tim is babysitting his neice) I noticed that one of the little girl's toys was a huge stuffed Sarabi, with baby Simba in her paws. I would sure LOVE to know where I could get my hands on one of those... but anyway, I thought it was cool!
