“The entertainment business has been soooo slow, so I’ve been doing what a lot of people do,” he continued, “figuring it out, showing up, and taking the work that’s there while I keep building the work I really want. 38 packages today!”

“There’s no shame in staying in motion,” Danny concluded his post.

Danny played the son of Judith Light‘s Angela Bower on Who’s The Boss?, which ran from 1984 to 1992 on ABC.

While speaking to People, Danny explained that the residuals from the sitcom are not as much as people would expect.

“People overestimate what residuals from a sitcom in the ’80s and ’90s look like,” he said. “I invested a good portion of that money, but I also used a lot of it to pay for Stanford and to get through my early 20s, so it’s not like there’s just been endless money sitting there.”

After Who’s the Boss? ended, Danny left the entertainment industry and attended Stanford, where he graduated from in 1998. In recent years he started acting again, but Danny said it’s harder now to get roles.

“Returning to acting after a ten-year break is an uphill battle. I’m reintroducing myself as an adult actor in an industry that looks very different than it once did,” he said. “Since 2021 alone, television production in Los Angeles has dropped dramatically, and even pilot season is a fraction of what it used to be.”

“We’re now at the tail end of pilot season with only a handful this year,” he explained. “What a lot of actors are feeling right now is that as fewer projects get made, the business becomes more risk-conscious, and more of the work clusters around recognizable names from the top down. Unfortunately, that means less of the work trickles down to the broader pool of working actors.”

Danny also explained why he decided to share the photo of himself delivering for Amazon.

“And this chapter is all about auditioning, teaching for Young Actors Theatre Camp, building my coaching studio The Resonant Actor, creating custom book nooks for clients, and driving for Amazon Flex to supplement my income,” he shared. “There’s no shame in staying in motion while the entertainment business finds its footing.”
