Tony Danza is returning to TV as the star of Netflix’s new dramedy series “The Good Cop,” the streaming platform announced Monday.

The “odd couple” style one-hour dramedy will see Danza playing Tony Sr., a disgraced, former NYPD officer who never followed the rules. He lives with his son, Tony Jr., an earnest, obsessively honest NYPD detective who makes a point of always following the rules. Father and son become unofficial partners as Tony Sr. offers his overly-cautious son blunt, street-wise advice on everything from handling suspects to handling women.
