What to watch from Friday, October 8 to Sunday, October 10.
On our list this week: Tony Danza, Weeds, and Bored to Death.
Tony Danza was one of the good actors of the 80s. His sitcoms that he played in, Who's the boss and Taxi was funny, but he just like so many another actors of those has-been 80s actors ( career after the 80s went downhill) that can't walk away from Hollywood and spends his time think about the FAME he once had.
Like so many others will do anything to keep himself in the glint and glimmer of it all and if that means making a fool of himself on TV, that what he'll do.
It's really sad to see people do this to themselves.
Tony is great and has a lot of opinions. Recently, he just launched a brand new website called Daily Danza http://www.dailydanza.com. It's really interesting, he shot raw footages of himself and talked about everything. There are videos about his diet plans and what he wants to do with his new personal website. He also has a raw video of a night out on the town with his friends. You can just see how much fun he has and how real he is in person. Tony Danza takes you into his world with genuine enthusiasm for the world. He will share his opinions from entertainment to politics. http://www.dailydanza.com
Wow! A mediocre score! I can't imagine reading a bad review about Tony Danza. Taxi was great, yes. His talk shows ... not so great, true. But everyone has highs and lows. "Who's the Boss" was definitely the highlight of his career, in my humble opinion. In this one series, he managed to showcase all his acting skills. He could be serious, funny (sometimes without trying), mysterious, sad, sexy, innocent (his "Angelaaaaa" face always made me say "awww"). Truly! He was the dad that you wanted - firm but a friend at the same time. That's what I felt, watching him as a kid. But the best part of watching his character throughout the show (then and now) is that he stays true to his roots, what seemed on-screen, as well as off. He played the "tough guy" well but also played the "soft side," just as well. Sometimes, it didn't seem like acting at all. Perhaps that's why I enjoyed watching him so much.
I love that I started watched this show when I was 8 and am now 31 and can still watch and enjoy it, Tony being my favorite part. And, yes, the flirtation between "Tony & Angela" being very high up there, as well. I think people look back at the show now and find it cheesy. In the years of "Family Guy" and "CSI," a family comedy doesn't exactly rate high up there in some people's idea of a "good watch." And I definitely feel that his comedy is looked upon, by some, to be cheesy and outdated. But it was the 80's!!! People forget that. I don't. I would love to see him in another show, now. Like this one. "Hudson Street" was okay but definitely didn't have the writing behind it for him to be all he could. Same thing with "The Tony Danza Show." I suppose even the best have their moments and eventually have to fade away. That's a shame.
Growing up who didn’t want Tony to be their housekeeper. He cleaned, he cooked, he was funny, he was good looking. I know people who wanted to live in the perfect TV homes (no divorce, everything’s great), me I wanted to live with Angela and Tony. Tony was a man who would do anything to give his daughter a better life, including cleaning houses. The bonus of this was getting to flirt and soon fall in love with the blonde boss. Taxi was a bit before my time so I can’t really comment on it, but I can tell you that I say some of what Tony did since then and it just wasn’t as good as Who’s the Boss. I just wish they’d release more on DVD so I can get my fill.
My impression of this guy is that he is one of a long list of HAS-BEENS. When I watched his talk-show with my mom, let's just say I wasn't impressed. It was painful watching as he brought his attrocious guests up to interview and when I say "attrocious guests," I mean Jerry Springer, the lady who starred in Nanny McPhee, the other lady on The View, and anyone else I probably haven't seen or mentioned. Why they're attrocious, you ask? Well, let me tell you: Jerry Springer's an a$$hole. The star of Nanny McPhee's cooking is horrible. The lady on The View doesn't seem like the most likeable person. And the rest are like I said, HAS-BEENS.
Tony Danza sort of reminds me of a sad clown. The makeup on him looks terrible, kinda like the makeup you would put on dead people lying in a casket. His jokes suck. Where are the crickets when you need them? Well, that's it. I don't care if you disagree with me. All I know is that it's my opinion and that I see this guy for what he truly is. So BLEH. If you need me, I'll be too busy watching anime episodes among other things on Youtube.com since it seems like American television these days really suck.
