'The Last of Us' Kaitlyn Dever Was a Different Kind of Badass on Tim Allen’s Network Sitcom

There's no denying that Kaitlyn Dever has taken the world by storm in recent years. After her star-making turn in Booksmart, as well as her roles in Dopesick, Unbelievable, and No One Will Save You, Dever has made quite the name for herself. Now playing one of the most important roles in the second season of The Last of Us, Dever offers a raw and impressive blend of anger, grief, revenge, and violence. But when the actress was just starting out, there was another hit series with the word "last" in the title that first launched Dever into the public eye. Long before Kaitlyn Dever was Abby on The Last of Us, she played a different type of badass in Tim Allen's Last Man Standing.
