TV Time Machine: In April 1995...

Can you even believe that rating?? In 1995 Home Improvement was airing its fourth season. On April 11, two episodes ran. Tool Time After Dark parts one and two. After eating polish food, Tim's stomach is bothering him so he stays up all night watching old Tool Time episodes. Still relevant today, Tim Allen still has a sitcom on the air with Last Man Standing. Yes he is.

In April 1995 Friends was in its first season, airing The One with the Evil Orthodontist when the gang becomes annoyed after they discover someone is spying on them from the building across the street. Is there even a point in reminding everyone about this cast's relevance? Courteney Cox just finished up the final episode of Cougar Town this week, Matthew Perry is currently airing in The Odd Couple, Matt LeBlanc is awaiting pickup news of another season of Showtime's Episodes and Lisa Kudrow knocks 'em dead in shows like Web Therapy and The Comeback, Jennifer Aniston is a household name and people would give a limb for a reunion.

ER was in its first season, airing an episode titled House of Cards on April 6, in which Dr. Greene is still having trouble dealing with cases in the ER and the new Chief of Staff is growing increasingly concerned. Relevance? Juliana Margulies is The Good Wife, George Clooney is one of the biggest movie stars in history, Sherry Stringfield pops up all over the place, including Under the Dome, Noah Wyle is on Falling Skies and The Libriarians and Eriq LaSalle is a director, among others.

Seinfeld was in its sixth season and aired The Doodle on April 6. You can still find photos of that doodle on the internet. Seinfeld's impact on comedy and sitcoms remains today, but notably Julia Louis-Dreyfus is currently airing and nominated for awards for her role as Veep.

One of the few not relevant today, Grace Under Fire aired Sticks and Stones on April 5. When Quentin gets into a fight after using a racial slur, Grace wants Jimmy to straighten him out. Meanwhile, the refinery plans a roast for John Shirley.

Coach was in its seventh season in 1995 and aired Ten Percent of Nothing on April 5. Luther decides to go behind his agent's back who's his dentist, and gets a job without him knowing the same time he gets a bad cavity. The relevance is NBC announced it was pulling the ABC Craig T. Nelsen starrer out of retirement and straight to series. Nelsen formerly aired on the network in Parenthood for six seasons. Take THAT 18-year hiatus!!

In its seventh season, Murphy Brown aired FYI of the Hurricane on March 7 in which Peter Hunt proposed to Murphy while in Floriday covering a hurricane. The relevance is that Peter Hunt was played by Scott Bakula is who currently leading the NCIS: NOLA team.

Airing its second season, NYPD Blue aired on April 4 Innuendo in which Simone and Sipowicz search for a killer following a shooting spree, which left several people dead and where a rookie cop's missed shot also killed a bystander. Jimmy Smits was Nero on Sons of Anarchy, hanging on as long as he could and Sharon Lawrence recurs on Rizzoli and Isles as Maura's birth mother.

Cybill was in its first season, airing The Last Temptation of Cybill on April 10. Every female around has eyes for Cybill's hunky new costar Rick, but he only has eyes for Cybill. Christine Baranski played Cybill's best friend Maryanne, and she's Diane on The Good Wife, now. Alicia Witt played Cybill's daughter and pops up all over the place. Peter Krause and Cybill herself also remain quite relevant!

In its 11th season, Murder She Wrote aired The Dream Team on March 19th. There's commotion in Cabot Cove about a rumored plan to build a car plant, Dr. Hazlit allegedly called it a health risk, but actually assures the sheriff not even to know what the project is. There isn't a lot about this show that remains relevant, apart from the networks's attempts to revive it to capitalize on its popularity.

Ellen was in its second season and aired Three Strikes on March 29. Ellen joins an animal rights activist group that stages an illegal protest of the killing of ferrets. Ellen's relevance cannot be questioned, as this was merely the begging of an astronomical career. Jeremy Piven, whose career has also skyrocketed joined the show in 1995. He's been in Entourage and Mr. Selfridge and nominated for multiple awards.

Another anomaly on the list, Dave's World was in its second season, airing Nightmare on Maple Street on April 10th.

Chicago Hope was in direct competion with ER, also in its first season. It aired Internal Affairs on March 29th. Mandy Patankin still steals scenes on Homeland and Adam Arkin was recently showcased on State of Affairs with Katherine Heigl. Peter Berg is now behind the scenes on many of our favorite shows and Thomas Gibson is a leading man on Criminal Minds.

Hope & Gloria only ran for two seasons and was airing its first in 1995, airing Falling in Bed Again on April 6th. It was a pretty funny show, so of course it fell off the air quickly! From the show we got Enrico Colantoni, known to most of us as Papa Mars on Veronica Mars, but also starring on various other series.

Full House was airing its eighth and final season and the episode All Stood Up on April 4th when Stephanie asks a boy to the dance and he does not show so Danny goes to talk to him and embarrasses Stephanie. There are always rumors of a Full House reunion series (its been "announced"). John Stamos pops up everywhere, Bob Sagat narrated the entirety of How I Met Your Mother, while Candace Cameron Bure and Lori Loughlin are Hallmark Movie staples.

In its third year, Mad About You aired Two Tickets to Paradise on March 30 when Paul and Jamie are headed off to a tropical island resort given to them by Paul's parents, since they changed their minds about it and the trip is non-refundable, so Paul and Jamie have to pose as Burt and Sylvia Buchman. Paul Reiser can still be seen on TV in FX's Married and on Amazon's original series Red Oak and John Pankow is on Showtime's Episodes with Matt LeBlanc.

In The House was in its first season and aired an episode titled Birthday Presence. Starring LL Cool J as a once famous football player who rents part of his house tp support himself. He's currently starring in one of the hottest series on TV, NCIS: LA. One of his tenants was played by Debbie Allen, who has been playing Dr. Catherine Avery on Grey's Anatomy!

Roseanne was in its seventh season and aired Happy Trailers on March 29th, when Mark and Becky find a tiny run-down trailer in a trailer park, and decide to make it home. Johnny Galecki stars in The Big Bang Theory, arguably one of the largest series on television, Sara Gilbert is a host on The Talk, Laurie Metcalf starred on this season's The McCarthys and Roseanne, John Goodman and Sarah Chalke all continue to make waves.
