The Tony Danza Show

Having tried to watch many episodes of this show, it was almost a painful experience. You can tell that Tony tried to do a good job, but unfortunately his sitcom experience did him little good in this format. Most of his interviews seem forced. He doesn't really listen to the guests answers. There are so many very good talk shows out there that this show pales in comparison. He also looks ill in this show, his face is sunken in and his hair seems to have some problems. Either he is ill, or his makeup artist has a sick and demented sense of humor. Each Friday he had a segment on the highlights from that week. I don't know how they found footage for those. I have to say I was kind of glad when this show was canceled, and replaced with someone new(Rachel Ray) At least things will be better this fall. Tony, please go back to sitcoms where talented people do the writing.

I was at Tony Danza's last show today,you could see the hurt that was in his heart. He managed to do the show I don't know how he held up in between commercials he was very quiet. He made a few jokes, but the hurt was there.

I commend him so much, he went out with class and style. Even if he felt he wanted to say something negative he did not. Tony's staff has always been so kind to audience members, my heart went out to all of them.

Tony you are the best. Good Luck to all you new endeavors, you did us Italians proud.

I watch this show on a daily basis and I think Tony is genuine. His depth and willingness to get his guests involved is a true joy. Never knowing what he is going to do next leaves us wanting more. The only drawback in that he is very competitive and wants to win and beat his guests. I hope this show stays on for a very long time and Tony keeps being his true self. I love the fact that he has brought his ethnicity into the show. I am Italian and absolutely love that he lets everyone know he is Italian and how he speaks of his aunt and other relatives. In the beginning they let Erika have a lot more air time and now they have limited this to only a minute during Extradanza, this is a shame because I really liked her.

This show didn't quite make it because of a few reasons. Tony Danza is an Italian from Brooklyn, which is cool. Very colorful upbringing and heritage. But he keeps referencing to the fact that he's Italian. Paisan this, Paisan that. Enough, man. The guy thinks he's a walking plate of spaghetti or something. Also, he talks too quickly and often when he's interviewing guests. He sticks to his notes instead of building on what the guest just said... should be digging for more depth. He's also too hyped up. He needs to relax.

The show felt empty. As if it was lifeless as halloween.

Danza a good host. Just the show had no life and energy to it.

Verdict: could have been great as a 90s show.
