Well, I was not expecting this. Below is home video of Danny Bonaduce — post-”Partridge Family,” pre-reality TV, and likely during his long love affair with mullets and hard-core drugs — going bananas with a pair of nunchucks during a martial arts demonstration. I mean, he’s not a complete badass — he is, after all, a diminutive redhead — but he doesn’t hit himself in the groin (unfortunately), so it’s safe to say that he could beat up hippies and even large children.
The best part — aside from the crowd shots of people looking bored — is when the announcer says, “And now we’re going to have a special guest appearance from Danny Bonaduce.” The reaction is several seconds of disbelieving silence, followed by cautious applause. Everyone just assumes they’re being pranked. “Who? Danny Partridge? I thought he was dead?”



You didn’t know this? Do you watch TV?
Pffft, I knew he was “badass” after watching him kick the shit out of Barry Williams on Celebrity Boxing. Quality programming there, Fox.
You didn’t know this? Do you watch TV?
Yes, I’ll watch anything that doesn’t have Bonaduce in it.
check out the sound guy: apparently, Bonaduce-san is good enough to make him put down his copy of his Knigh Rider Companion leaflet
Noooo, he’s ruined one of my favorite songs.
He can wear the gi and the sneakers, and bring the chucks. I will pay infinity dollars if someone will drop Danny Partridge in the Octagon with Georges St. Pierre.
He’s got some skill and technique, I’m more dangerous than him cause my nunchuck handles are sticks of lit dynamite. Recall him tossing that pud Jonny Fairplay and knocking out his tooth?

I would fight him.
His facial expressions were hilarious. it was like watching a 6 year old having a temper tantrum.
On a side note, “Faces of Bonnaduce” sounds like an Italian soap opera.
You are all probably too young to remember Danny as the karate street punk who gets his ass handed to him by Ponch on CHiPs.
