Taxi or Cheers?

I actually have to vote for Cheers on this one, since i'm more familiar with that one.

Taxi is considered the father of Cheers. When James Burrows, Les Charles, and Glen Charles wrapped it up, they wanted another ensemble comedy, thus Cheers was born. I use to watch Taxi and really enjoyed it....Cheers is funnier though...By Far

Although I like both, I would say Cheers because it's much more funnier.

Definatly "Taxi." Christopher Lloyd was hilarious as Reverend Jim.
I also liked Judd Hirsch as Alex Reiger. Taxi is one of my top ten favorite shows.

Taxi, by far.

Jim Ignatowski rules( Christopher LLoyd). I love Latka( Andy Kaufman), I liked that he became Nick Ferari.
Danny Devito, Judd Hirsh, M L Henner, Tony Danza ( he was ok), and Bobby was ok too, a great ensemble cast IMHO. I like the setting, and story lines. Taxi is in my top 5 shows.

I like Cheers too, but Taxi is funnier and more intersting to me
