	BSG Forums - Taxi vs Cheers
		I recently got hold of the first couple of episodes of Taxi and did not think that the writing or the plots were anywhere near as strong as Cheers.
		That said, I still laugh at Taxi a lot and like the characters (Although Tony Danza's acting is slightly suspect), but ultimately Cheers is my favourite US buddy sitcom.
		Taxi is a bit more old-fashioned in that it didn't quite go gag-gag-gag like Cheers, and as a result it seems a bit slower paced, but they are similar in the way that the comedy comes out of the identifiable traits and believability of the characters.

	tvdvdreviews.com -- Taxi: The Complete First Season DVD Review
		Taxi is similar to MTM in that jokes and one-liners are often secondary to character-based humor.
		Taxi's characters are loveable, and it is fun to watch them pursue their hopes and dreams while struggling to make a living.
		Taxi producers Glen Charles and Les Charles would go on to create Cheers, a show that would more successfully combine realistic characters and situations with excruciatingly funny bits.

	Taxicab
		Taxi service is typically provided by automobiles, but various human- and animal-powered vehicles or boats are also used or were used historically.
		Taxis are often "hailed" or "flagged" on the street, either by a passenger as a taxi is driving by, or at a taxi stand (sometimes also called a "taxi rank", "cab stand," or "hack stand").
		Taxi stands are usually located at airports, railway stations, and hotels, as well as at other places where large numbers of passengers are likely to be found.

	New Statesman - Out of this world
		In Britain, where he was known mainly as the ingratiatingly kooky Latka in the TV sitcom Taxi, Milos Forman's biopic Man on the Moon won't mean quite so much.
		There's an uncomfortable sense of "you had to be there": we must take it on trust that Kaufman was a media revolutionary, a pop situationist and a performance artist who used prime-time TV as his medium.
		Despite his success in Taxi, Kaufman professed to despise the sitcom itself and showbiz in general; yet he claimed to be a song-and-dance man at heart.

	"Taxi" (1978)
		So many episodes of "Taxi" ended on a quiet, poignant note that it threatened to become a gimmick, but never did, because it remained faithful to the underlying truths of each character.
		"Taxi" was all about losers but it never condescended to them and never called them such.
		This truth was never more appropriate as it is with "Taxi," whose characters truly aren't going anywhere, as the taxi depot is a kind of purgatory for lost souls.

	Taxi
		In Taxi Judd Hirsch's Alex Rieger was a main character, but his importance seemed secondary to the centrality of the ensemble and the Sunshine Cab Company itself.
		Taxi used this strong position to end the season ninth in the ratings and garner its first of three straight Emmys for Outstanding Comedy Series.
		Taxi lives on in syndication, but its most significant place in television history is as the middle generation between The Mary Tyler Moore Show and Cheers.

		Produced by Steve Martin, this half-hour sitcom starred Martin Mull as the host of a Seattle-based radio talk show about family issues, a topic in which he was an expert thanks to his own family, wife Candy (Judith-Marie Bergan) and two children.

	Taxi Movie Review - Taxi Movie Trailer - The Boston Globe
		"Taxi" casts Latifah as Belle Williams, a motormouth cabbie and NASCAR hopeful, and then prays for comedy.
		A remake of the 1998 French movie by Luc "The Fifth Element" Besson, "Taxi" requires Latifah to chauffeur cop Andy Washburn (Jimmy Fallon) around New York City at warp speeds to stop a series of crimes after he commandeers her cab.
		The chief pleasure in "Taxi," aside from Latifah's mugging and nonstop complaining, is a ludicrous plot involving a quartet of bank-robbing Brazilian models, led by Gisele Bundchen.

	[No title]
		As both stand-up comedian and Latka on 80s sitcom "Taxi", he had people fawning over his oddball persona and endlessly trying to unravel his unique comedic style - even after his early demise from cancer in 1984.
		Taxi’s breakout performance was Andy Kaufman’s Latka Gravas.
		Kaufman’s big-eyed naiveté and painstaking attempts to grasp the English language (not to mention his lapses into whatever language that is that Latka speaks) are always hilarious and a bit poignant.

	2 Walls Webzine - DVD review - Taxi: The Complete Second Season (2005) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		During its relatively short run the show set a template for smart workplace sitcoms that would still be in use today if anyone was actually making smart workplace sitcoms.
		The season is so strong that even when an episode’s central story is carried by Tony Danza, Jeff Conaway or Marilu Henner – and each player in the ensemble gets his or her shot at center stage – there’s barely a drop-off in pacing or laughs.
		As always though, Taxi was largely a forum for the ying and yang relationship between Judd Hirsch’s career taxi driver and moral centerpiece Alex Reiger and Danny DeVito’s proudly moral-less boss Louie DePalma.
