      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.

    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.

    This is the first thumbs-up I've ever given The View on RUclips. Taxi was SPECTACULAR- and look at the superstars who were in that show. Christopher Lloyd- one of my all time favorites- also from my favorite movie of all time. Danny Devito went on to a great movie career and another all time sitcom. Danza too. Andy Kaufman - nobody ever like him. Carol Kane- hilarious. Marilu Henner- gorgeous. And Judd Hirsch- spectacular.

    I watched this show in high school back in the late seventies. Jump ahead to 2016 and, I was nervous about applying for a job but, when I played the Taxi theme song, it brought me back to high school when anything seemed possible. 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. If not for that, I don't know what would have become of me.
