Tropes used in Last Man Standing (U.S. TV series) include:

• Christmas Episode: "Last Christmas Standing." Boyd's father returns to town, while Mandy demands better working conditions for her fellow elves at Outdoor Man.
• Creator Breakdown: In-Universe. Whenever Mike does an Internet ad for the store, he usually rants about whatever's been annoying him in a given episode.
• Halloween Episode: "Last Halloween Standing." Against Kristen's wishes, Mike takes Boyd out trick-or-treating and winds up mixing him up with another kid in a similar costume.
• Odd Friendship: Kyle and Ed.
• The One Guy: The premise of the series, with Mike the only male Baxter in the cast. (There is Boyd, but he's only seen occasionally.)

Doctor: I'm concerned about your blood pressure.
Mike: I live in a house with four women.
Doctor: Then you're doing great.

• Reality Subtext: In the pilot, Mike's first lines include "I'm back!" and "It's good to be home" - referencing Tim Allen's return to TV, network ABC over ten years after Home Improvement ended and even the same timeslot said series occupied.
• Sensitive Guy and Manly Man: Kyle and Mike.
• Tomboy and Girly Girl: Eve and Mandy.
