On the show Home Improvement with Tool Time Tim. He had a man that lived next door and he would always hide behind the fence like he didn't want to be known. Does anyone know why? It's not life threating but I am just very courious!.....

Maybe Wilson Wilson didn't want to show everyone the real reason he was named twice.

Part of Wilson's facination. Remember The show Cheers? Did you ever see an episode where they showed Norm's wife Vera?

The actor was Earl Hindman. It was his idea to do that to give "Wilson" an air of mystery.
Viewers of the soap "Ryan's Hope" will remember Earl as "Bob Reid," Delia's brothjer.

I heard (although this could be complete BS) that the actor had a big scar on his face that he was embarassed of. But I can see how that could easily just be a rumor. Who knows?

It was a running gag. Just like you never saw Carlton the Doorman on Rhoda.

Its a tribute to Phantom of the Opera. Also he's horribly disfigured and a little bit shy about it.

Great question, I think for the first time ever, other people answered better than I can. So, I'll abstain.

It was just another hook, the man,I think was the producer or director of the show .

Hmmm, he's not Mr. Universe but I wouldn't exactly say he's disfigured.
