This Emmy-winning sitcom follows the lives of a group of cabbies in New York. The employees of the Sunshine Cab Company are a motley crew, including frustrated actor Bobby, struggling boxer Tony, art gallery receptionist Elaine, and tyranical dispatcher Louie. For almost everyone, the cab company is just a temporary job that can be left behind when they make it in their chosen professions. The core of the company is disillusioned Alex (Judd Hirsch), who's sure he will be driving a cab for the rest of his life. Burned-out ex-hippie minister Reverend Jim and mechanic Latka Gravas (Andy Kaufman) round out the group.

When Louie learns that his old girlfriend Zena is getting married, he invites himself along on her honeymoon.

Louie wants to move into a classy apartment building, but first he must be approved by a panel of snobby tenants.

Alex becomes obsessed with his dog's well-being when he finds out his beloved pet hasn't long to live.

Elaine's son (David Mendenhall) gives up the oboe to study boxing with Tony.
