	Taxi (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Taxi is an American sitcom that originally aired from 1978 to 1982 on ABC, and from 1982 to 1983 on NBC.
		The series focused on the every day life of a handful of New York City taxi drivers working for the Sunshine Cab Company, as well as their abusive boss, Louie De Palma, played by actor Danny DeVito.
		Taxi was also nominated for 25 Golden Globes, with 4 wins (including 3 for Best TV Series - Musical/Comedy), and in 1979 received the Humanitas Prize in the 30 minute category.

	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.

	Taxi (U.S. TV Series, 1978-1983)
		As with Taxi, Cheers occasionally used what I refer to as the "small world" technique, whereby people from a character's past show up by accident or at random in the character's place of work (see, for example, Taxi episode 58, Elaine's Old Friend, and Cheers episode 68, The Belles of St. Clete's.
		Contrast Taxi's use of customers in storylines with that of shows like Barney Miller and Night Court, where "customers" (people who had been arrested on Barney Miller, litigants on Night Court) were both more common and used to a much larger extent in the shows' storylines.
		Taxi on Video: eight episodes of Taxi (two on each videotape) are available on VHS tape (search by Title, and enter "Taxi").

	Taxi
		Taxi was about a group of New York City cabbies, most of whom were trying to make it in other professions, talking about their lives and problems, and dealing with the sardonically hilarious company dispatcher Louie (Danny DeVito) who handed out assignments like a petty dictator.
		This was one of the great television ensemble comedies, and many of the actors went on to star in films and other television series.
		In Taxi, Tony wore his chucks during the last one or two seasons only and by doing that, he showed how his character grew into a more mature, streetwise guy who continued to have a big heart.

	Taxi TV Show
		The Taxi TV show was a comedy series that presented a look at the lives of a group of New York City taxi drivers and the nasty dispatcher who tried to rule them.
		Due to almost identical plotlines and storylines, Taxi has often been referred to as a forerunner for the TV series, "Cheers (1982)".
		More than 23 years after Taxi ended, the series' theme song would be heard on the Numb3rs TV Show at the end of episode #44 titled, "Blackout".

		The Syrian TV series "Ghizlan fe Ghabet Al Zia'b" or "Deer in a Forest of Wolves" gained the highest view rates during Ramadan according to a survey by the Syrian newspaper "Al Thawra".
		Viewers of this series were on their toes waiting to see what will happen in the end but unfortunately, the end was really sort of a disappointment because the revelation of the character ‘Stef’ and the last minutes divorce of ‘Souad’, the wife of ‘Abu Issam’ was unexpected and shocking but was also poor

		Andy had dreamed of being a performer since he was a child, and performed at birthday parties and other small venues for many years starting when he was eight.
		While working out at the gym, he was spotted by a casting director and invited to audition for a role in the sitcom Taxi.
		Fans familiar with diminutive American actress Rhea Perlman only through her Emmy-winning characterization of wasp-tongued waitress Carla Tortelli on the TV sitcom Cheers are usually taken aback to discover that Perlman is as shy and soft-spoken as Carla was pushy and abrasive.

	TAXI Member Profiles: Zupe
		When he finally began to take his music and songwriting seriously, he discovered that he was totally lost in a sea of industry executives who wouldn't give him anything more than a friendly rejection via a form letter.
		Although he had written a song called "The Light" in 1995 that the Red Cross used in their disaster relief awareness ad campaign, it seemed to mean nothing at all to publishers and music supervisors across the country.
		Zupe readily admits that were it not for TAXI he'd still be "treading water and banging my head against the wall".

	Comedy Central: Movies - Taxi [TV Series] - Plot Summary
		A true classic of the "ensemble sitcom" genre, Taxi ran for five years on two different networks, accumulating dozens of industry awards (including several Emmys) and a comparatively small but intensely vocal corps of loyal and loving viewers along the way.
		During the series' fourth season, Latka married his countrywoman and sweetheart Simka Dahblitz (Carol Kane), who, beginning in season five, was listed among the regulars.
		Debuting September 12, 1978, on ABC, Taxi opened to solid if not spectacular ratings, but its viewership dwindled as the network arbitrarily shifted its time slot (from Tuesday, to Wednesday, to Thursday) over the next four years.

	Amazon.com: Taxi - The Complete Third Season: DVD: Carol Kane,Michael Zinberg,Richard Sakai,Harvey Miller,Will ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		From the melancholy opening notes of the theme song, Taxi promised to be a different kind of sitcom, epitomized by the show's central character, Alex Reiger (Judd Hirsch, Ordinary People): down to earth and compassionate, with neuroses that smacked of real life and not the forced zaniness of too many television shows.
		Taxi didn't always maintain a degree of realism--if you haven't seen it in a long time, you may be surprised by some of the cornier jokes and bits of slapstick--but at its best, the show managed to merge sadness and humor into rich and satisfying stories.
		Taxi, in my opinion, is one of the best sitcoms of all time.

		Certainly, the 2005 series was the twenty-seventh continuous season of Doctor Who television episodes produced by the BBC (the original series produced up until its twenty-sixth season), and the production team have stated their intention to continue on from the original Doctor Who series and not produce a 'reboot' of the show.

	The Chronicle - My TV Taxi Review - RenaSofer.net
		All the stories behind the stories are told in Sci Fi's new series, The Chronicle (July 14, 9 pm ET).
		The series' intriguing premise is that all the stories reported in The Chronicle are, according to crusty editor-in-chief Donald Stern (Jon Polito), "100% positively true." Tucker finds this more than a little hard to believe, even after his editor takes him to the magazine's underground "archive."
		The Chronicle is a wonderfully creative series with a concept that provides the show with endless material.

		The original "Taxi" became the highest-grossing film in French cinema, but never made much of a dent in the North American market.

		Let's let her tell it, ok? "This company called us and said they were interested in putting one of our songs as background music in the Steven Bochco TV series, ëBrooklyn South.' Even though it was used as background music it still was better than just having the song sit around.

		Trivia: The theme song's full title was "Angela (Theme from 'Taxi')", was written/performed by Bob James and was from his 1978 album "Touchdown".
		The title track "Touchdown" was the song Bob had actually written for the theme, but Taxi's producers liked the short cue Bob had written/recorded for one brief scene with Alex (Judd Hirsch) and a young woman, Angela, and used that instead.

		This half-hour PBS series attempts to tell stories about teens from a teen point of view, getting into such serious issues as drug use, puberty, death in the family, rumors, etc. Authentic in many ways and good for starting discussions between kids and parents, if you can get past the weak performances and production values.
		The "Batman" TV series remains superior, but the "Superman" set is still fun.
