Per ET Canada, Danza reveals that a Who's The Boss sequel series is in the works and said, «We're waiting for the writers.» Danza confirmed the show is not a reboot series and would feature Light in a "small part" but mainly focus on the characters of Tony and Samantha.

In an era of reboots and revivals, it's no surprise that one of television's highest-rated sitcoms is being workshopped into a sequel series. It remains to be seen if original cast member Danny Pintauro will reprise his role as Jonathan Bower. Sadly, Katherine Helmond, who played fan-favorite Mona Robinson, passed away in 2019. According to Danza and Milano's previous comments,the new installment of Who's The Boss will center on the father-daughter dynamic between Samantha and Tony as Samantha tackles single-parenthood. The Who's The Boss sequel series could make more headway very soon.
