This post is dedicated to the [estimated] 8 people who’ll get it.The Turnabout Taxi!AU: Ace Attorney recast as the late-1970s James L. Brooks produced sitcom “TAXI”.“The show focuses on the employees of the fictional Sunshine Cab Company, and its principal setting is the company’s fleet garage in Manhattan. Among the drivers, only Alex Reiger, who is disillusioned with life, considers cab driving his profession. The others view it as a temporary job. Elaine Nardo is a single mother working as a receptionist at an art gallery. Tony Banta is a boxer with a losing record. Bobby Wheeler is a struggling actor. John Burns (written out of the show after the first season) is working his way through college. The characters also include Latka Gravas, their innocent, wide-eyed mechanic from an unnamed foreign country, and Louie De Palma, the despotic dispatcher.“ ~Wikipedia“Taxi” was part of a trend in sitcoms of the era to try reflecting the real life of viewers, along with his other show “Mary Tyler Moore,” and Normal Lear’s “All in the Family” “One Day at a Time” and “Good Times”. These shows featured fewer screwball storylines, and included previously taboo topics such as divorce, premarital sex, interracial tension, and the realistic portrayal of the working poor. -- source link
