While there were many excellent sitcoms that came out of the Reagan years, only one gave us Tony Danza. Who's The Boss was a sitcom created by Blake Hunter and Martin Cohan that ran for 8 seasons on ABC from September 1984 to April 1995. The series became one of the most-watched and popular sitcoms of the 80s and was nominated for more than 40 awards including a whopping ten Primetime Emmy and five Golden Globe nominations, winning one of each of those.
The series helped launch the acting career of its lead, Tony Danza, who played the character Tony Micelli, a former professional baseball player who moves to Fairfield, Connecticut, to work as a live-in housekeeper for Angela Bower, played by Judith Light.
Bower is a divorced advertising executive with a son named Jonathan, played by Danny Pintauro. Rounding out the cast was Alyssa Milano as Tony's daughter Samantha Micelli, and Katherine Helmond who played Mona Robinson, Angela's sexually progressive mother.
Even though the show had a devoted fan base, a TV show needs to have a large audience to survive the network chopping block season after season. As far as ratings went, Who's the Boss consistently ranked in the top 10 during its Primetime time slot between 1985 and 1989 and has continued to enjoy wide viewership in syndication ever since.
While on paper everything seemed to be going well for the sitcom throughout its lengthy run, behind the scenes there were rumors of cast disputes and other workplace difficulties. Tony Danza was apparently extremely difficult to work with, especially once fame started going to his head. We'll address this in greater detail in the video.
Eventually, like all good things, Who's the Boss eventually came to an end. Although eight seasons certainly is one pretty impressive run, fans of the series were still left wondering why their beloved series got the ax. In this facts-packed video, we'll be exploring that question while taking a look back at the scene that took Who's the Boss off the air for good. If you consider yourself to be a fan of Who's the Boss, this is one video you won't want to miss.
