Disney has released the first trailer for its upcoming new comedy series, “Shifting Gears”, which stars Tim Allen as Matt, the stubborn, widowed owner of a classic car restoration shop. When Matt’s estranged daughter (Kat Dennings) and her kids move into his house, the real restoration begins.

Check out the “Shifting Gears” trailer below:

Tim Allen executive produces alongside Michelle Nader, Marty Adelstein, Becky Clements, Richard Baker, Rick Messina, John Pasquin, Jim Patterson, Bob Daily and John Amodeo. Pasquin also directed the pilot episode. Mike Scully and Julie Thacker Scully are executive producers on the pilot episode. Kat Dennings is a producer. The ABC series is produced by 20th Television, a part of Disney Television Studios.

The first episode will be released on Wednesday, 8th January 2025, at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT, and it will be available to stream the next day on Hulu and Hulu On Disney+.  No international Disney+ release details for this series have been announced yet.

Roger’s Take: Tim Allen and Kat Dennings have been great in their previous sitcoms, so I’ve got a good feeling about this show, plus it feels like their characters lean in on their strengths. I really hope this one clicks with audiences, since we don’t get many family comedies nowadays and I think the trailer did a good job in establishing what its about.
