Taxi Brooklyn

Contrary to what people are saying, I actually liked this. Even though the acting isn't amazing, I usually can't spot bad acting just because I'm focused on the story. Yes, it is predictable and uses a lot of cliché plot points, but it make for good entertainment. Clichés aren't always bad, and the predictability doesn't extend too far into possible major plot points. I'm looking forward to the next episodes, but not with edge-of-my-seat excitement. And I don't think that's writers intended. It's a comedy-drama not a drama-comedy. It's wasn't written to be thrilling. It was written to be fun and entertaining. This is just my opinion. I may not even watch the next episodes. I may just read the online recaps. I may not even do that. But what I can say is that I enjoyed the first episode, and am hoping it doesn't disappoint me in the future.

This show was great!!! As I kept watching I was hooked! I really hope the rumors about canceling the show are false. Give us a season 2. PLZ !! I would love for this show to continue. The storyline was excellent an was good enough to keep me interested. One season will not do this TV series justice. The chemistry amongst the actors is very impressive. Some of the acting by the characters could've been slightly better but the storyline makes up for that... Besides I could say the same about many other shows (that some of the actors are not that good) and there storyline is mediocre. AND many of them have more than one season. this show deserves to have a second season. its that good in my opinion. I hope there are others who will watch or have already watched it and feel the same. Please express your desire for them to continue and we may just get what we want. I hope all of this wishful thinking pays off... The fact I took the time to do this should speak volumes of how good I think this show is. With all that being said, I HOPE THERE WILL BE A SECOND SEASON!!!! PLEASE! I hope somehow or some way it helps in the efforts to launch a season 2!!

Firstly, I have not seen the pilot for this show yet. I only watched the second episode of it because it came on after America's Got Talent and I was too lazy to change the channel. I enjoyed the show but have the following problems with it:

1. NYC taxis have a plastic divider between the front seats and rear seats. This cab doesn't have one for obvious reasons of all shows set in NYC, to see the passengers in the back. But it's still wrong.

2. NYC taxis are in no way as "souped up" as this taxicab is. It's insane, the stunts this guy does with his cab are impossible for the average driver to do in a standard taxicab with standard suspension, engine, transmission, and tires.

3. There is no explanation for why he is such a skillful driver or why he is as observant as Sherlock Holmes in finding clues and analyzing them.

a. Perhaps they could come up with a back-story that he was a detective in his native country (France) who raced cars as a hobby.

4. Why is Chyler Leigh's character such a c--t? She is thoroughly unlikable despite being a sexy bitch.

5. While the cab driver is always complaining about losing fares giving the female detective rides, he seems to spend as much time investigating as she does. Why doesn't he just drop her off and then split; to pick up fares which is his living?

This show has much promise with good chemistry between the main characters, good plot lines, and lots of great action scenes. The producers just need to work on filling in the loose ends. If you're looking for a more realistic cop show, watch Law & Order this is just for escapist entertainment on par with "Knight Rider" and "The A-Team".

There is a petition to renew the show for a second season below. Please sign it and we can try to get it renewed for a second season.There are more people that love this show than you think. It was also just torture how the last episode ended on a major cliffhanger and Cat's relationship with Leo would have been interesting to see what it would have progressed into. So once again please sign this petition to renew the show many other people would also love to see this show renewed. All that is needed to sign is your first name and your email address. This is the only petition I could find that is for renewing Taxi Brooklyn.

After reading reviews here i was hesitant to watch the show, but with lack of anything else to do, i continued onto it anyway, and all the reviews are just haters. The first episode got a 7.7/10 and the story- line behind Cat is actually something i WILL definitely continue to watch the show for.

Responding to complaints from the others, Yes, The camera is a little shaky, but it's not the kind of pirated recorded on CAM shaky, it's the visual effects, following the character around shaky, and i didn't even notice it until i read a review that claimed it. You'll only be bothered by things like this if you have a weak attention span, or you aren't paying any attention to the show.

I didn't really see any problems when it comes to the characters or the execution of the plot, I really enjoyed the storyline, and will continue to look forward to the following episodes. Just saying, if you're someone who watches TV shows for the actual story, and not someone who watches them just to kill time, you'll enjoy this show. (It's not like the Simpsons or such that you can enjoy it without paying attention)
