It starts off light hearted but later the guy (Danny devito?) shaves his head and starts murdering people

I watched Taxi for the first time like 15 years ago. Did not regret it. Danny Devito, Judd Hirsch, Christopher Lloyd, Tony Danza, and Andy Kaufman??? Are you joking?? That's an all-star cast if there ever was one.

In the same vein, Mork & Mindy is a great throwback just for Robin Williams alone.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

Remember how Danny Devito wasn't in the first season of It's Always Sunny? History doesn't necessarily repeat itself, but it does occasionally rhyme.

Ya, it's good. Christopher Lloyd was a great addition but Andy Kaufman became a legend on the show.

I haven't seen Taxi since I was a child but it has Danny DeVito. Anything with DeVito is a must watch.

It's sad that he is 79 years old. We could be saying goodbye to a legend shortly.

Danny DeVito isn't a legend, he's a verifiably real human being. Atlantis is a legend.

So Back to The Future was made in 1985. One year after I was born. Christopher Lloyd has looked old almost as long as I've been alive.
