Tony Danza has appeared in everything from an MC Hammer music video to “All My Children” and a 1997 self-titled sitcom. More recently he starred in the Netflix drama “The Good Cop,” made a guest appearance on “Blue Bloods,” and showed up –- as himself! -– on the Max “Sex and the City” spinoff “And Just Like That.”
Danza’s role within a role had him working with Che Diaz (Sara Ramirez) on a potential sitcom where he played Che’s father. “Tony Danza is coming in to read for my father. He’s not Mexican or Irish but he is Tony Danza,” Diaz said in the episode “The Real Deal” before complaining about Danza’s insistence that his character had to be Italian despite Diaz’s Mexican-Irish heritage.

Danza appeared in two episodes of “AJLT” and he had a great time. “I’m so fortunate. I mean I feel so blessed,” Danza told AMNY in an interview. “I started when there were three networks, now I’m on a streaming service.”
Danza also produced a one-man show, “Tony Danza: Standards and Stories,” where he sings and shares stories about his life. “I think I’ve been doing this song-and-dance thing since the mid-’90s, and I’m finally starting to get it, so it really feels good to go out there and know you have something to offer,” he told Page Six in 2023.
