Country, in fairfax, virginia with todays turkey trot. Well check back in with our main man in a minute. But we have a very special cohost from the boxing ring to the big screen. A tv icon from taxi to whos the boss, now to the stage, the one and only the tony danza who has a song i feel like im going ten rounds. This is the song, hold me closer, tony danza. The classic that blew up the charts in the late 70s, elton john sang this about you . Well, you know, elton and i go way back. The truth of the matter is, ive never actually come clean about this. Shouldnt talk about it. When you first heard that song, did you think tony danza or is that just the rest of us being you know how it is. On friends, phoebe said i like that song, elton johns song about tony danza. I said, what are you talking about . I have incredible experiences with this. I was in philadelphia, walking to a restaurant with a friend of mine and three young girls came up to me. I thought theyan they got around me and they launched into this song. They just started singing oh how it feels so real. Lets play the moment when friends told us what the lyrics were. Best song ever was the way we were. I think the one that elton john wrote for that guy on whos the boss . What song is that . Hold me close Young Tony Danza . . Thats so good. Speaking of songs, we have a special one to play. You performing, as long as im singing from your show standards and stories. . . In the show we try to pay homage to the guys who wrote the allen brant. People are obscure. Everyone knows them. Is music in your wheelhouse . Your wheelhouse is television, film. Seems like you dont have a wheelhouse, you have a whole car house . I always wanted to be a song and dance man. This is something i always wanted to do. In the 90s after i had an accident and i was reevaluating my life what i hadnt done, what i had done. One of the things i wanted to together. I had been tap dancing for about ten years at that point. So that also gave me some license. I figured you could stink and then break into tap. Everyone loves a tap dancer. Its been an incredible journey because you have to learn. You aspire to do it but in order to sing publicly, make that connection with an audience when you are doing the act, and also writing the act. Then perform it. But whats great about it, when it connection with the audience. You tell personal stuff, stories about showbiz. So many years ive been out there and i was lucky enough to get out of there when a lot of the older idols of hollywood were still around. But stories about my mother. I introduced my mother to Frank Sinatra. My mother was the biggest Frank Sinatra fan in the world. He was so great to her. I tell the story in the show. But it is one of the greatest moments of my life. How did she react . Well, not like you would expect. She was just frozen. She just couldnt she just couldnt. She couldnt move. She couldnt bear he was in the room with her. I heard you had a whos the it was amazing. I was a little bit i was reluctant to do it. Didnt know how two look, who wants to go back. But we all got together. The great Katherine Hellman and judith so wonderful. We were at patsys restaurant on 56th. The official Italian Restaurant of the tony danza show. I was obsessed with whos the boss. On Alyssa Milano and a lot of girls had a crush on you. I hear people saying, i wanted you to be my father. Thats a wonderful compliment. He was so loving but cool, disciplinarian, but let you get away with stuff. Not only that, why im so proud of that show, it wasnt proselytizing. We were preachingy. But we really tried to send a good message. Look just to have that hair again. Look at that. You could grow it out. Wouldnt look the same. Trust me. Thats your Throwback Thursday moment that we presented to you. Dylan has become the unofficial queen of Throwback Thursday. Apparently she has a vault of pictures her parents took. I have a box of pictures my mom gave me. They are full of doozies. There are so many things to comment on this picture. Bigger glasses than any kid ive ever seen. I was blind like since the age of 1 so ive always had glasses. The older i got, the bigger the glasses got. But i thought this was a baby alive when i posted it. It pooped and did everything. I never got the baby alive. Santa brought me the wrong baby. But you didnt know pop. I still loved it. Thats kind of my practice. Whats the stereo behind you . They used to play cassette tapes. Every single night i would go to bed listening to a cassette of buddy holly. And the lamp . My mom was big into stenciling. We had stenciling all over, including lamp shades. That captures such a moment in time. It was a moment in time, for sure. You guys got to come out and see the show. Im going to be in brooklyn college. Sunday, brooklyn college. 3 00 in the afternoon. Walt whitman performing arts center. I get to do that act. I get do that attempt to make a connection. And im going back to brooklyn. Thats my neighborhood. Brooklyn is not the same brooklyn. You see the guys with the like hipster brooklyn beards and dinner jackets. There he a always been eclectic group. But brooklyn is a very special place. Number one thing about brooklyn you love. All i can think about is the great community. My father was a garbage man in the neighborhood. He worked on the school we lived on. My first day of high school he let me ride inside the truck no. But im telling you, i think about the community. I really think about the Corner Grocery guy that played corner crosser guards for all the kids in the neighborhood. Beat cop who strongly suggested i should try the Police Athletic league. That kind of thing. I feel like i can visualize all of these people in my mind. Community was important for me last night. Loreal paris women of worth awards. I was so honored to present to kathy tilipson. Retiring, im taking all of my money to help homeless use. Not just giving them a place to stay.

So we brought in New York Times good appetite columnist Melissa Clark to help us break it down. Per person. Melissa, good morning. Good morning. Would normally take on a plate and well see just exactly how right you are about how much you should have. People tend to take either too much turkey or they dont get enough turkey. What you need is 1 1 2 pounds per person which will give you leftovers. Thats your turkey. You think thats the right amount of turkey . By the way, im on tv. Im not eating like i normally would. Is this how you would youre going to eat some of that now, then the next goes into your turkey sandwich the next day. You need to be sure you have the leftovers. This much if you want leftovers. And the leftovers are the most important part. Cranberry sauce, take the gravy. The amount that you would normally do. Thing about cranberry sauce, you think do you need leftovers . Think about the turkey sandwich with the mayonnaise and you need the cranberry sauce. Important part. Gravy. Open faced hot with the gravy . It is amazing. I dont think i took enough of either. That looks good. Then you guys took about half as much as in there. That is perfect amount to have leftover. So you are doing really, really well. Moving on to stuffing. I love stuffing. Stuffing, what do you do with the stuffing on the next day . You like to put it in a sandwich . Iik get it crispy, butter in the pan and egg on top like hash browns with stuffing. So good. Gravy on the stuffing. You know what . Maybe this is one cup per person. Cranberry sauce, you need half a cup of cranberry sauce, half a cup of gravy, one cup of stuffing. Now mashed potatoes. You have to fill your plates quickly before everyone else gets in here. Mashed potatoes we didnt even get to the pie that barely fits on your plate. Enjoy. Thank you, melissa.

The best part about this thanksgiving table is that it is really all diy elements, stuff thats easy to put together. This is our centerpiece. We actually repurposed our halloween pumpkins, gave them a coat of white spray paint and just added in some other white elements like the flowers, these antlers. If you dont have faux antlers, you can use tree branches. It took five minutes to put together and it looks russ continue and elegant. I love the pumpkin idea. It is so smart. Yeah. Because the the next thing was you might notice there is a lot of gold. I love this. Do you like gold . I love metallics. Tony is taking it all in. This is incredible. One of my favorite things to do is repurpose i think gold spray paint can make anything look like a million bucks. We took some leaves from outside and literally they started like this. We sprayed them with some gold spray paint. Wrote the names down with a sharpie and you have a super elegant place card. Which are not plates that youre going to eat off but it is just a decorative plate. Mine were all beat up, again, coat of gold spray paint. Tame thing on the stemless wine glasses. They look pretty.

The topic of the wedding came up and all of a sudden he burst into tears. Dont do that, guys, oh, dont do that. Take a look. I dont want us to rush it. Something were both still figuring out. Like maybe somebody involves knowing what youre getting into. Theres still things we need to know. I have no idea what just happened. I had no idea that ben was feeling this way. And i feel completely blindsided. I feel like to figure out that its hard for me at this point to, like, really feel comfortable getting married. So youre saying the wedding is off . Yeah, i am. Wait, should have postponed. Yeah, so this is the big wedding, like they were going to i think theres hope. What do you think . I watched the show and she has been so gungho with the wedding and you can see him pulling back and getting glassy eyed. This was a bombshell though. For him to say because they probably have some kind of deal going or this was going to be a televised wedding. They did go to Chris Harrison the host and say officially the wedding has been called off. Oh. Now saying that, theres two episodes left of this reality show which follows the ups and downs of the relationshio some people do get that way when it gets close to the wedding. The girls planning and planning and the guys retreating. The crying thing is no, i believed his tears. I believed it too. He did break down.

Yes, shawna is from minneapolis, wrote us about the very tough year shes had after lifethreatening bicycle accident. There was a long road to recovery which opened shawnas eye to the true meaning of family. My husband brian was riding his bicycle home from work when someone hit him. He had to be airlifted to the hospital 45 minutes away where he was admitted to the icu for internal bleeding and a broken pelvis and back. My parents were driving from wisconsin to florida where they had rented a condo. They were in nashville when i made the dreaded ll and drove straight to our house in minnesota to help out with our two kids, griffin and alis. Brian was in the icu for six weeks undergoing multiple surgery, procedures and dialysis. The road to recovery was very uncertain. With the hospital so far away, i couldnt commute back and forth either day. My parents stayed the entire time so i could be with brian 24 7. They took the kids to school, to all their extracurricular activities. They helped them with their griffin said it best, meme and papa took us to school a little late the first day back. After that day, it felt pretty normal. As the weeks went on, my mom kept reassuring me, you need to be with brian, we have the kids. Knowing they were being so well taken care of, i was able to concentrate on brians recovery for his entire threemonth hospital stay. My parents put their entire lives on hold. There is no real way to thank them or express how grateful we are for all they did for us. They truly of family and the sacrifices parents make for their children. Beautiful. Now we get to meet shawna, her husband brian and her amazing parents, luanne and jim are here. So great to have you all here. This was recent, so how are you feeling now, brian . Feel great. Yeah. Long time in that hospital. It was a long time, yes. I mean, when you think about your parents support, because you always wonder what we woulder do when we got into this that your mom and dad would be there licketysplit, huh . Absolutely. Describe what they meant to you during the time. Just being in the hospital, there was just, you know, minute to minute things going on with brian. I didnt have to worry about the kids. I just knew that everything was fine. They were being well taken care of. I love the line about how we didnt get to school on time the first day but then it got normal after that. What wast dad again . Really . To little ones. We needed naps every once in a while. It was, you know, we had our joy in being able to become a hockey grandma, gymnastics and Everything Else that we did. We had told shawna just dont worry, weve got your back on this. You know, its jim, how was parenting the ones . Well, i think griffin and i ended up being sports addicts. We bonded pretty much. Be able to follow him playing hockey. There he all are by the way. The whole family is here. You go through these things as a family. If youre blessed enough to have a family. And a close one that takes good care of you.
