Editorial Review:
Set in New York City, TAXI follows a group of cab drivers of the Sunshine Cab Company through the daily but far from ordinary routine as cabbies. The sitcom features a multitude of extroverted persons such as a frustrated actor, strained boxer, ex-hippie and cynical dispatcher.
Taxi - The Complete Second Season Reviews:
Too much advertising on this DVD! 
2009-07-24 - I LOVE Taxi, and each season gets better. BUT, this particular DVD has TOO MUCH ADVERTISING! It was maddening. I popped in the DVD to watch an ep. of Taxi, but had to sit through THREE (3)! advertisements of Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley, and Mork and Mindy "now on DVD"! I don't care! I could not fast forward through them either. I will NOT buy any more Paramount DVD sets if this is what is on them. It's not worth the frustration.
Love This Show!!!!!!!!! 
2009-05-08 - Hilarious show, great cast and wonderful story lines. What I loved about this show was everyone was allowed the opportunity to shine. Nowadays they'll have a funny character then the next thing you know, the show slowly but surely revolves around that one person. I can't stand when that happens. This show is a about collective group. They were very impressive. Although I have to admit Latka and Louie are my favorites. It makes a great gift to anyone who loves classic 80's TV shows
The best TV show, ever?
2008-08-19 - My favorite TV show of alltime is Newsradio, bt Taxi is so close to being #1. I think the only thing going against it is that it was only on for about 4 seasons. A great cast, but to me Danny Devito is the one who makes this a great show. He is without a doubt my favorite TV character. He is just so miserable, and he loves to take it out on all of the cabbies. And this is the season where Christopher Lloyd shows up as the stoner of all stoners. To be honest, even now I am considering naming this my favorite TV show of alltime. I am always going back and forth. If you enjoy TV comedy, and haven't seen Taxi, what the heck is wrong with you? And does anyone know when season 4 is coming out? I can't watch the few episodes I have on videotape forever.
One of the Best Seasons Ever
2008-07-28 - The first season of Taxi was fantastic. Right away, the show's creators seemed to have a great sense of the characters, their relationships, and how the episodes would be structured. Somehow, as great as it was, season two manages to be a vast improvement! The key is perhaps the addition of Rev. Jim as a full-time cast member. It was quite a risk for a show with a character as unique as Latka Gravis to add another completely off-the-wall character to the group, but the drug-addled 60s leftover only adds to the perfect group dynamic and gets some of the biggest laughs I can remember. Who could forget the Rev. Jim asking what to do at a yellow light during his driving test?
Tony's a lovable dope, Bobby is spot-on as a frustrated actor, Louie's the guy you love to hate, and Elaine provides the garage with some real class. But anchoring everything is the great Judd Hirsch. Not without his own quirks, he's nevertheless the sane center of a crazy world.
If you like your sitcoms to be both intelligent and funny, Taxi's an absolute must-see, and season two is as good as they come.
TAXI- Awesome classic TV & best casting ever
2008-03-25 - I was a young teen when TAXI first hit the airwaves. It was "must see TV" for me then and watching the shows now is no different. The writing is top notch but it's the cast that gets you hooked. What a terrific group of talented actors. One of the best casting jobs in TV history. Let's not forget that several future stars of Cheers had small parts TAXI in one or more episodes. I laugh each time I watch these shows. It's classic TV and Rev. Jim rules!!!!
