[@lawrencebeardsworth1943]

Reverend Jim was the best, taxi was one of the funniest comedies ever

[@Derek-yc1ol]

Why was it canceled

[@albundy6008]

"I must have had music lessons"

[@garyhughes2446]

You might look forever and never find anyone that's funny as Christopher Loyd playing Jim Ignatowski.

[@Fee212]

I found someone.. Andy Kauffman.

[@FrankJohnson-d5v]

Or Danny Devito playing Louie DePalma 😂😅

[@SciTrekMan]

Lloyd

[@justiningram6640]

IGGY!!!!!!! Got a phone coalll

[@DaveHalpernShortSale]

Christopher Lloyd was hilarious in One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, especially when the cigarette started burning in his pants leg

[@DaveHalpernShortSale]

Before Cheers, before Seinfeld, before Friends, there was Taxi.

[@ImYourHuckleberry_29]

Yes but before taxi there was Barney Miller.

[@mousetreehouse6833]

​​@@ImYourHuckleberry_29 ...and somewhere in the mix was WKRP in Cincinnati... 😄

[@Jamie-j6o]

B4 Taxi, Srgnt Bilko. 😅

[@destonlee2838]

Let's also be glad we saw SOAP.

[@antifajesus]

And the Simpsons ❤

[@mordechai-]

The cocaine episode was one of the funnier episodes, but nothing like Reverend Jim's driving test. This was indeed one of the funniest shows ever to air on television.

[@thomasferrusi1345]

what does a yellow light mean

[@chrislloyd4673]

All my life I have shared the same name as Christopher Lloyd 😊 and that’s pretty cool.

[@petebovenzi8119]

That’s awesome !!!!

[@thomasshepard6030]

His best scene was when the aliens took him up in their ship and came right back down with him and threw him out

[@mariandujsik3893]

One of the best episodes was when Jim tried a pot brownie in college. Almost wet myself! 😂

[@michaelhall2709]

Jim was a rich, uptight prude who only tried a pot brownie to get his girlfriend off his back. One little nibble and it was like he’d seen the face of God.

[@Stumblebum-lc4zu]

They left out the funniest part of the cabin sketch. After Jim bangs his head he says 'Where the hell are we!" Somebody says "We're in a cabin in the woods." Jim asks, "Are we lumberjacks?" "No we're cab drivers." Jim then says, "We must not get a lot of business up here."

[@dennisfreeland-bm9fs]

Not funny, black borderline profound: how does a mountain girl make love? Like an angel ..

[@Mrgop]

One of the most original characters in television history IMO.

[@johnnyb357]

One of the best shows ever made

[@judithmccrea2601]

One of the best comedies ever on TV. The cast was brilliant!

[@therocinante3443]

This show was filled to the brim with some of the greatest TV characters in history

[@judymcvey9005]

Taxi was such a FUNNY show. Every character was perfect. But Jim was over the top! What a super actor Christopher Lloyd was. Imagine how difficult it would've been to maintain that persona. What an actor...the best hands down!

[@LordMalice6d9]

He's still alive isn't he?

[@mousetreehouse6833]

​@@LordMalice6d9 ...and still working, I believe...🫠

[@pjj9491]

Was? Did he pass?

[@doug9172]

Jim was fas.

[@delaines5041]

I don't think CL found it difficult at all. He loved this stuff. I believe he was involved in Frasier - more truly funny stuff. Back to the Future would not have been such a hit without him. Truly beautiful and true comedy.

[@Derek-yc1ol]

Why can't we have stuff on TV like this

[@0U812FU]

DEI won't allow it ...

[@richinoable]

Because you chose marketing and business administration

[@richinoable]

*_"... southern Peru. '74, before the rains."_* Had me laughing so hard. Christopher Lloyd was perfect as Jim.

[@me109cito5]

without a doubt.😂😅

[@JGLy22086]

He absolutely was. MY FAVORITE was the drivers license. What does a yellow light mean. Go slower. What …

[@kiddetroit8403]

😂😂 You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet😂😂😂 Jim Ignatowski for president

[@miketroiano1]

Would probably do a better job and the country would be a happier place with people wanting to engage with each other like the good old days

[@rushpuppy2]

I think you may have gotten your wish. This is Biden’s intelligence.

[@toms4442]

​@@rushpuppy2I would still rather have Iggy.

[@melissaresendes8966]

You can see that Michael Richards Kramer pulled some of Jim's behavior into his character

[@nope_no_nunya.]

14:09

[@josephtzintzun5463]

"what does a yellow light mean?", my personal favorite scene

[@robertabray-enhus3198]

Me too! “What does a yellow light mean?” Slow down……

[@damangusriley586]

​@@robertabray-enhus3198 Okay whaaaat....doooes....a.....yelllllooooww....liiiiiiight.....mean?

[@jamescalabrase2890]

Slow. Procede with caution.

[@mikejennings5964]

That one was great lol

[@donaldleider7382]

Taxi was good to begin with, but when they added Reverend Jim the show went thru the roof!

[@daviddoty-ni9le]

yes it did

[@davidbuckley5837]

Best scene was the driver license test

[@Derek-yc1ol]

Oh hell yes

[@katharinesaville6145]

I like Louie and the girl scout cookies.

[@blaster-zy7xx]

What do you do at a yellow light? Slow down. W. H. A. T. D. O. Y. O. U. D. O. A. T. A. Y. E. L. L. O. W L. I. G. H. T?

[@alanmcneill2407]

This was comedy at its best, Jim was played so well...i still crack up after seeing some scenes a hundred times. all of them were so much better than what we have today, the writing was excellent too. Karol Kane as Simka and Andy Kaufman as Latka were killers, Simka's way of talking was so sweet...and funny...and Kaufman was a genius. Miss them all so much!!

[@joehansen4889]

Jim doing his license test! Too funny

[@davidbuckley5837]

Still laugh out loud at that scene

[@bigsparky8888]

CHRISTOPHER LLOYD IS A GRAND PIANIST FOR REAL....THE SHOTS OF HIM PLAYING IN HERE....IS ACTUALLY HIM...♥️🕊️👈👍🇺🇲💪

[@johnhoy9512]

[@ShirleyJKreim]

That is so cool. I got goosebumps. You look at his gifts, just incredible.

[@HookBeak_66]

We had the comic genius Les Dawson in the U.K. To play a classical piece is one thing, to play it out of tune is much more complicated than you think. Les Dawson & well loved Welsh singer Shirley Bassey below: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6nQpmx-gLNnnbs

[@robertschaaf7192]

wow I was wondering❤

[@diaboli81]

😂, not a pianist. Nice try 😜

[@thom-mark6443]

" My God, I know her!" Gets me every time.😂

[@nelsontoondrawer7618]

I started laughing at the one with the painting...😅 I had seen it. Knew what was coming.

[@boxingdonkey]

"She dyed her hair, but that's her. "

[@Awaywrdson]

My favorite episode of his is when he was taking his written driver's test and he kept asking what does a yellow light mean ? And when they said slow down that's exactly what he did, he kept asking the question slower and slower !!! It was hilarious !!! 😝

[@joestjames8781]

Jim may have been insure and obtuse but he always did the right thing for everyone and was one of the coolest people on the show

[@Harpadzo]

Well, MY favorite is the DMV footage. "What does a yellow light mean?"

[@theresagallagher9161]

I remember the next day in work. We laughed our arses off. At lunch there wasn't a table that wasn't talking and laughing about it. I worked in a hospital lol...

[@endtimeawakening5557]

Reverend Jim is the epitome of humor! Thanks so much for sharing this! ❤

[@rondawson5071]

He was just great in this role. He made me laugh all the time .

[@terrymckenzie8786]

Is it my imagination, but when I see him playing the piano, his fingers are really playing.

[@miketroiano1]

I wouldn't doubt it, he was really talented and capable.

[@thomasshepard6030]

He was a trained pianist

[@berklymiller919]

He was really playing, Christopher Lloyd was a classically trained pianist!

[@Flossie-h8n]

Between Foster Brooks and Christopher Lloyed ; they both portraid their act of genius with the unforgettable comedy that we all enjoyed through these years....i always laughed my arse off!!!!! Thank you both so much for your true comedy!! "The greatest!"...😅😅😂😂❤❤❤

[@nabinmandal3472]

I nominate Ignatowski by Lloyd as one of the funniest sitcom characters of all-time!

[@miketroiano1]

I second that!

[@timothyedmiston8756]

One of the best shows ever

[@damonmorgenstern1073]

Dr. Emmett Brown 😊😊

[@JoeLattimore-ss2pm]

Those faces he made playing the piano 😂😂..

[@woodrowsmith3400]

I knew several Jim's in real life. One could have actually named the town closest to the leaves in the cookies. Sadly, he is now gone. Jim remains...as one of the truly great characters in comedy. You can't watch without at least cracking a smile.

[@JohnMichaelGunner]

NOT funny at all. HORRIBLE show. PATHETIC.

[@우사민-r3c]

Jim was a Harvard man afterall.

[@mauriceupton1474]

For some time my friends used to call me rev. Jim, l didn't know why, much later my youngest daughtet gifted me the whole Taxi series in dvds. Then, l inderstood what drugs do to you.

[@danaduchemin6242]

I forgot how much I loved that show😂

[@davidverry9214]

Jim at the piano best scene in the entire series “ l must have had music lessons”

[@johnprendergast1338]

"Chemistry?!! Oh yeah, Id say, I know chemistry ..."

[@nschlaak]

For me, the piano-playing skit on Taxi was among the very top skits ever put together. It is so brilliant that it made such a lasting impression I've retold and shared it many times.

[@dennisfreeland-bm9fs]

Must have had... Piano lessons. Funny, classy, understated!

[@Flossie-h8n]

Christopher Lloyed was tops with his part in Taxi; an all time acid burnt out from the days of true comedy!!😅😅🎉😂😂❤❤

[@TheRuthyc]

Christopher Lloyd nailed that part! Genius.

[@neilbolger2679]

I laughed so much with this . Brilliant

[@USERID412-k7n]

Brilliant character. I didn't remember the cookie tasting, so thanks for bringing it back. Perfectly executed.

[@mrsmacca126]

My fave scene is where Tony Danza says he feels nothing and goes to get a soda… then picks up the whole machine

[@Hambone571]

Talented man. Play this part superbly.

[@dizastro5437]

This series was a talent showcase, and nearly as endearing as MASH

[@berklymiller919]

Nearly? NEARLY? Taxi was the first, it was way ahead of its time, MASH was a great show, but Taxi was much better!

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@babettepurvis6164]

My favorite episode of Taxi was when he had to take the written drivers test and they all went with him to help. One of the questions was ‘what does a yellow light mean’. They all said”slow down” so he asked the question again very slowly. I laughed until I cried!!!

[@Turco949]
