    The premise is a little weird, a cop using a taxi to get around, but it works. The characters are evolving and the cast clicks. Still looking forward to finding out the background of the French taxi driver. It is entertaining which is why I watch TV.

    I think this is a great new cop show not sure how far they can take it with taxi driver not being a cop but it is a funny new idea for cop show. I really hope it makes it for a whole season at least

    Great chemistry and humor. The writing is full of enjoyable surprises. Excellent show. Succeeds where Brooklyn Nine-Nine is more like a Saturday night Live skit with lots of goofy clowning, Brooklyn Taxi is a screwball comedy like those from the thirties and forties that were well written.

    When I first heard about the show's premise, I thought, "No freakin way!" But since nothing else was on, I gave it a shot. I must say that Brooklyn Taxi is surprisingly entertaining! And no more unbelievable than Castle.
    The cast chemistry is stellar and the writing is witty.
    I'm hooked!

    Love this show. Both main characters provide surprises and unexpected laughter. The suspense and plot twists blow us away. I hope that the network keeps these get cast on the air. If the first shows are any indication they can continue to draw us in to the plot and the people.

    Taxi Brooklyn isn’t a game-changer, but it’s a well-written, solid summer offering that’s worth checking out.

    While there are many reasons to like Taxi Brooklyn, including and especially its two fresh and likable leads, it too often wobbles and stalls, unwilling to commit to one type of storytelling or the other.

    Perhaps over that time, it will evolve into the buddy dramedy it needs to be. Until then, though, it's just another police procedural, and prime time already has plenty of those.
