Hometime was a PBS home improvement television show produced by Hometime Video Publishing of Chaska, Minnesota, in association with WHYY-TV/Wilmington-Philadelphia, and broadcast on public television and in syndication. It first aired on PBS on November 1, 1986. In 1992, Hometime began airing on TLC (The Learning Channel). When Hometime aired on TLC, Dean Johnson would say "Hometime will be right back", this was used when the show goes into commercial breaks. When the show comes out of commercial breaks, Dean Johnson would say "And now, back to Hometime". The show came to an end on January 30, 2016, and is no longer airing, although episodes of Hometime continued to air in syndication, but the syndicated version ended after 16 seasons.

Hometime demonstrates both do-it-yourself- and contractor-performed projects, ranging from simple weekend projects to complete homes. Hometime episodes have covered many aspects of home construction and maintenance.
