OS generally hates 'reality TV', but this is different. It looks and feels like a cross between a documentary and the best episodes of 'Homicide: Life On The Streets'.
Actor Tony Danza, raised in Brooklyn, first in his family to graduate college, decides to pursue teaching, his major in college, as he nears age sixty--in the largest high school in Philadelphia. One thing to say on his behalf: He did learn some courage during his years in the boxing ring.
And yet, he asks the fearful question: Would I want my daughter in a classroom run by someone like me?
It is interesting to watch as he is afforded no quarter, not an inch of slack, as he undertakes this adventure. He struggles, and his self-doubts lead the way.
Episode 1 is here.
It airs Friday nights on A and E.
It's about the culture.
