Just thought I would ask because me and Jack were talking about how it was probably the worst show of all time.

Just saw a countdown online and Taxi was voted the worst show of all time. Got this list from the interenet so it has to be legit.

It had one of the funniest lines ever.
The messed up hair guy(dont remember his name) held up a bag of pot that had been found in a taxi he sniffed it and said " September....before the rains" being a stoner at that time I almost wet my britches

Louie DePalma(Danny DeVito) was ranked the #1 TV character by TV Guide at one time. That alone says something for the show. I also thought the characters Jim Ignatowski(Christopher Lloyd) and Latka Gravas(the late Andy Kaufman) were 2 of the best ever in any sitcom. Good show overall but those 3 carried it...

I'm too young and it was too boring when I watched the re-runs of it in the 90s, I much prefered Welcome Back Kotter and Three's Company for older sitcoms.

It was alright. Agreed that Christopher Lloyd and Andy Kaufman made the show interesting. Marilu Henner was nice eye-candy at the time, too.
