      Danny DeVito landing that part went on to write both comedy and dramatic scripts, produce some insane shows like Reno 911 and save Sunny in Philly from the chopping block. That show launched many careers but none as impactful to the art than Danny. War of the Rose's is still a favorite of mine.

    Taxi is my favorite show of all time. I've seen every episode dozens of times by now. My favorite Taxi moment is probably when Jim was a door-to-door vacuum cleaner salesman. (SPOILER). After dumping grease and most of this poor lady's breakfast on her carpet to demonstrate how good the Magic Carpet Wizard is at cleaning up messes, he reaches into his case and pulls out a book and asks, "Where do I plug this in?" Then he remembers that he didn't get the job selling vacuums, but was actually selling encyclopedias.

      Me too! I am surprised to learn that he had never acted before Taxi, he's such a natural! Tony seems like a person who is easy to get along with and fun to work with. I can tell his co stars have always liked him and I've never heard anything negative about him.
      Alyssa Milano has talked about how Tony was very protective of her on the set of "Who's The Boss", like a 2nd dad to her. Tony has talked about how proud he is of her professionalism, talent, and that she stayed away from drugs and "trouble" unlike many other child stars. There was talk of a "Who's The Boss" reboot but I don't know if it ever happened. Tony and Alyssa were the only original actors that signed on for the project and it sounds like they were both looking forward to working together again.
      Do you remember when he had his own talk show, briefly? I don't know why it was cancelled. I thought he was an excellent host because his guests always seemed to be having a good time and he was skilled at keeping conversations going in the right direction.
      He's still handsome! Now he's a silver fox.

    It reminds you of old New York where people talked about
    Broadway and theatre, singer song writers from New York, like Billy Joel,
    and just great comedy writing. My favorite character was Alex, the level headed, wise, and
    vulnerable character of them all. They all had such great chemistry, now I know why. So many
    life lessons, yet so much fun. Cheers to Taxi!

You give her a date and she can tell you what she was wearing, what she was doing etc. There is only a small amount of people in the world who can do that. She says it drives her family crazy. I believe her when she says the filmed 112 episodes and not 114 like Wikipedia says 😂

I then played the theme song right before going to apply for the job. I got the job! Thank you Ms. Banes for making us watch Taxi and do reports on it.

    As they said it was an ensemble cast, ir wasnt a star driven show and relied on interactions between the cast members. I think it worked bc they seemed to have that chemistry in real life.
    My favorite scene was where jim confronts Alex for calling him a nut,etc to a shared love interest. Alex gives him a recitation if the weird things he has done,and at the end Jim says 'wow, i dont even remember some of those things...Alex, that means you care!'
    Tied with the episode where Latka thinks he is Alex, Alex takes him to see his shrink, and latka as alex starts talking about his feelings, snd Alex is nodding saying 'wow, i never thought about that!'
