Danny Pintauro Says He’s Driving for Amazon Flex as Acting Jobs Slow

He frames the move as pragmatic in a market with far fewer acting jobs.

Overview

  • Danny Pintauro, who played Jonathan on Who’s the Boss?, disclosed on Instagram that he is delivering packages through Amazon Flex.
  • He said the flexible, app-based shifts let him earn money and keep auditioning with more privacy than customer-facing work.
  • Pintauro added that residual checks from 1980s and 1990s reruns are modest and not enough to live on.
  • He said he is rebuilding his career through steady auditions, paid acting coaching, short teaching gigs, and custom book-nook craft work.
  • He pointed to a smaller TV pipeline, noting far fewer pilot orders and Los Angeles shoot days dropping from about 18,560 in 2021 to 7,716 in 2024.
