    Taxi has all kinds of possibilities and tons of potential. All that Brooks, Daniels, Weinberger and David Davis have to do is measure up to their pasts long enough to pull it off. Las night they failed to measure up. [13 Sep 1978, p.18C]

    There could be a lot of laughs in the daily lives of cab drivers and tales to be spun out of their reasons for hacking. But Brooks and company have let their concept sputter away into a shapeless gagbag, wasting entirely their principal actor, Judd Hirsch, to say nothing of the supporting players aspiring to some kind of steady employment. [12 Sep 1978, p.134]

I used to watch shows like, saved by the bell, Full house and even All that. Haha but nothing compared to the realness and well developed characters that Taxi has. Full Review »
