DVD Description
Taxi is one of the defining sitcoms of the 1970s. This character-driven comedy rolled out of the garage with a full tank of gas as well as smart, witty, and compassionate writing, and extraordinary characters. The employees of The Sunshine Cab Company include single mother Elaine (Marilu Henner), aspiring actor Bobby (Jeff Conaway), hapless boxer Tony (Tony Danza), reptilian dispatcher Louis (Danny DeVito), naive guy John (Randall Carver), and mechanic Latka (Andy Kaufman). Judd Hirsch's salt-of-the-earth cabbie Alex Rieger solved everyone's problems but his own. Award-winning episodes include: Blind Date in which Alex tries to befriend an embittered overweight woman, and High School Reunion in which Bobby impersonates Louie at Louie's reunion to impress his mean former classmates.
Synopsis
TAXI debuted in 1978 and quickly worked its way into the pantheon of sitcom classics with the help of one of the finest ensemble casts in television history. Set within the confines of a dingy parking garage, the series chronicled the ups and downs of an assortment of endearingly eccentric New York City cabbies--veteran driver Alex (Judd Hirsch), single mother Elaine (Marilu Henner), aspiring actor Bobby (Jeff Conway), struggling boxer Tony (Tony Danza), and, most indelibly, immigrant mechanic Latka (the brilliant Andy Kaufman)--all lorded over by the acid-tongued barbs of diminutive taxi dispatcher Louie De Palma (Danny DeVito). This collection features all 22 episodes from the Emmy Award-winning show's debut series.
