Danny DeVito is a great actor. Love to see him in anything. Never fails to get a smile or laugh out of me. The farthest back I remember seeing him was when I would get home from school he was on Taxi reruns before Tiny Toons. He was a heel in Taxi but one of the strongest characters. Absolutely love his character Frank Reynolds in Sunny. Freaking hilarious! 😂
