Tony Danza to play a bad cop in Netflix’s The Good Cop
Tony Danza, onetime star of Taxi and a current purveyor of meats and cheeses, has booked the starring role on a new Netflix series titled The Good Cop. The show, from Monk’s Andy Breckman, follows a father and son, both named Tony, who are both cops. The elder Tony is “disgraced” and out of the business, while the younger is an above-board type of guy. According to a release, “this ’odd couple’ become unofficial partners as Tony Sr. offers his overly-cautious son blunt, street-wise advice on everything from handling suspects to handling women.”
