Danson began his tv career, as many actors have, as a contract player on a daytime soap opera called Somerset. He played the role of Tom Conway from 1975 to 1976. He was also in a number of commercials, most recognizably as the "Aramis man".
He made a number of guest appearances in episodic television in the late 1970s and early 1980s, including spots on Laverne and Shirley, B.J. and the Bear, Family, Benson and Magnum, P.I..
In 1982, Danson was cast in his most recognizable role, as ex-baseball player and bartender Sam Malone on the hit sitcom Cheers. The show ran from 1982 to 1993. Although he was best known for his work in comedy, he also appeared in an acclaimed drama, Something About Amelia, about a family devastated by the repercussions of incest.
In 1996, several years after Cheers concluded, Danson starred in the short-lived CBS sitcom Ink with his real-life wife Mary Steenburgen. In the same year, they starred as Lemuel Gulliver and his wife in an acclaimed television miniseries of Gulliver's Travels.
Danson went on to star in the more successful CBS sitcom Becker, which ran from 1998–2004. Danson also played himself on Curb Your Enthusiasm.
He reprised his role of Sam Malone in a second season episode of Frasier and voiced him in The Simpsons episode "Fear of Flying."
Danson returned to series television in the fall of 2006, playing a psychiatrist in the ABC sitcom Help Me Help You.
What else would "Mayday" Malone want for a cache container, but a film canister? And it's a 35mm one at that. It is camoed and fairly easy to spot once you get to home plate. You might want to take care when replacing it just to make sure it won't become dislodged. After all, we wouldn't want "Mayday" to throw us a curve. Don't strike out on this one, come in safe and BYO
