Summary: Zena the candy machine girl falls for Louie, but Louie doesn’t know how to date a nice girl. Elected to locate a suitable bride, Alex (Judd Hirsch) shows up with what can euphemistically be described as a "working girl." Sure, John’s gone but considering he had exactly zero relevant moments in the seven first season episodes we watched, I’m not sure that is going to be much of a problem. {{t('buy_card.limited_use_name_'+product.Usage.toLowerCase())}}, {{t('buy_card.limited_use_description_'+product.Usage.toLowerCase())}}, {{getDefaultSize().teeShirtSize || getDefaultSize().label}}, {{getDefaultSize().pixels}} ({{getDefaultSize().localeUnits}}). Never occurred to him to just drop it.”) I give Kaufman a remarkable amount of credit for the way he manages to turn this character, as you say Andy, from crude caricature to someone who can communicate on the wideness of his eyes.
So let me just say that this episode is a microcosm of most of what works about the character of Latka and most of what doesn’t work.

(Bobby has one of my favorite lines in the episode here: “Kind of wonderful, isn’t it? The virtue of that character and Danny DeVito’s acting talent has always been that he can sell both sides in equal measure, often at the same time—witness him willing to try to talk his problems out with Alex, but his mercenary tendencies grumbling at every dollar Alex bilks him for. Plus, these premises work because they have actually helped us learn a little bit about each character. AKA: Táxi. As to Cory’s inquiry, yes, Louie is the stand-out character, and DeVito is the stand-out performance.

Taxi was the brainchild of James L. Brooks, who’d already done his part to reinvigorate the sitcom format—winning a slew of Emmys in the process—with The Mary Tyler Moore Show.Following the end of that show, Brooks formed the John Charles Walters Company alongside fellow Mary Tyler Moore writers Dave Davis, Ed. Sure, it’s regularly played as a joke that no one’s been able to understand a word he says, but he’s fully cognizant of what everyone else is saying—this isn’t a Fawlty Towers “I’m so sorry, he’s from Barcelona” language barrier situation. Meaning, Taxi hasn’t changed much between the first half of season one and this opening effort of season too—and that’s not a bad thing. Don't have an account? So it’s great fun to see her here as, basically, the Bizarro Louie.

Taxi is an American sitcom that originally aired from 1978 to 1982 on ABC and from 1982 to 1983 on NBC. One of the things that has impressed me about these first handful of episodes is how well the show integrates boilerplate gimmicks into its plots without them seeming, well, gimmicky.

Alex definitely plays a part in this episode’s narrative considering he brings Louie and Zena together (and has to deal with the consequences of that) but there’s no question that this is Louie (and DeVito’s) showcase. From the annoyingly funny “hehhheh” bits to that tremendous conversation with Alex at the dinner table, this was honestly one of the best performances I’ve ever seen DeVito give. When it’s done right—like it is here—there is very little to complain about. In lesser hands, this guy could just be a crude caricature spouting vaguely Europe-y gibberish. (And of course the whole shirtless thing, but I’m trying very hard to look past that.)

Latka’s remained on the periphery of the action to this point, and that’s by design. It’s during the wedding ceremony itself that we see glimmers of Andy Kaufman’s true strengths in this role, the ones that made his Foreign Man schtick (from which Latka is loosely adapted) so effective.

One might argue that it would make more sense to tell a story about Louie visiting his high school graduation or Bobby giving up acting once the audience has gotten to know them—to make the stakes higher, to channel my inner executive—but, But maybe it doesn’t matter so much since the group rallies around him as they rallied around everyone else in the episodes we’ve seen to help out their colleague. This episode marks the first series appearance of burned-out hippie "Reverend Jim" Ignatowski (Christopher Lloyd), who would become a regular the following season.
