Tony Danza didn't start the school year in a Hollywood studio. Instead he started it in a classroom at Northeast High in Philly where he began taping episodes for the latest batch of reality TV that uses the public education system as the foreign habitat. While Phillyist is reserving the right to comment on this reality TV experiment (perhaps being done at the sake of high school students?), it is probably safe to say that he is encountering the challenge of his life. The show will air on A&E at a later date, but as a future high school English teacher, I can guess that at the present moment, he is facing a stack of essays higher than the mop he wielded on Who's The Boss? He may be the boss, but those students are about to give him a run for his (measly amount of) money.

When someone offers you the chance to watch a television show and spit out your opinions on it, they probably hope that you enjoy what they're throwing at you. Well, suffice it to say that Parking Wars: Best of Season 1 falls into the category of "fun to watch because it ain't me!" True Phillyists all over the city know the Philadelphia Parking Authority means business. The PPA raked in over $70 million last year. That would pay well over 2.5 million expired meter tickets. Seriously.
