People are voting emotionally.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

While flipping channels today I caught part of a later "Becker" episode and re-visited a boring TV show. I forgot about this show and cannot believe we are nine seasons removed from its ending.I remember anticipating Ted Danson's return to television comedy after all his success with Cheers. Becker disappointed me from the first episode. Oh, I would tune and catch other episodes because I respect Ted Danson and have an insatiable crush on Terry Farrell.The writing killed this program and it was not funny. Why it survived six seasons may only be explained by the goodwill given to Danson for Cheers' success.None of the characters except Terry Farrell's character were likable. Nancy Travis did nothing to interest me. The supporting characters were lame and forgettable.Becker complains about everything under the sun. No one likes him or would want to spend anytime around him. Becker basically likes no one. As a Doctor you would think Becker would live a more opulent lifestyle than was presented on the show. For strange reasons the producers seemed to think that the more annoying Becker would get the better we would like the show. Instead Becker's complaining drove me away from the show. Ted Danson must have been crying for the excellent writing he got on Cheers. The Charles brothers are geniuses and produced the best writing I've ever seen in a comedy with Cheers. Becker was just a big letdown.

We in the Dallas, Texas, area are enjoying reruns of "Becker" five evenings a week at 6:30 pm and 9:00 pm on KFWD 52 (Channel 14), and personally (my lady and I) make every effort never to miss it, one or the other times that is. It is easily the funniest comedy on television in our opinion, ant this is a multi-station area, not to mention all the cable channels we get with our Comcast/Time Warner service. With the possible exception of "Fawlty Towers", the John Cleese comedy from England running for the nth time here on PBS-TV KERA. Both are just brilliant. Have long wondered why "Becker" had to end...I suppose the creator, Dave Hackel, just ran out of ideas. Too bad.

Who here doesn't like Becker? I'll get all of yeas, this show is DA greet est. Ted Danson is funny, and this show is underrated, why does no one talk about this show? Is it because people don't like gray-haired people? That's Racist! With a capital P. i mean, that Taylor Hicks guy won American Idol, Ted Danson should've won, he's probably a better singer. Did he ever sing in Becker? I twink I've seen every episode's, but I may have missed one. It's like that one episode of Buffy where everyone sings. Man, writing ten lines of text about becker is hard, if he were here, he'd probably make a scathing remark about my intelligence, and I'd laugh, because he is hilarious, more hilarious than Seinfeld. That's right, you heard me, I'mm calling you out Jerry!

A lot of people watch the show Becker. They sometimes see only one episode, get a laugh and that's really about it for them. I watch the show every single day I can. It's that funny. People really say it's just about Dr John Becker, but it isn't really. Its about Becker, Reggie, Jake, Bob, Margaret, and Linda.Chris and Hector showed up the last 2 or 3 seasons, and I have seen mostly the episodes without them. But take a look at the show. It's always about what's happening with Becker, yet the show involves the other characters, what's happening with them as well. My favorite character is Bob, I go crazy with laughter when he shows up. The things he says, the way he talks. Even though Becker is good in his own way Bob was always the best. Jake was pretty funny as well, his little comments and the fact it was pretty easy to make a quick joke about him was too funny. Same kind of thing with Bob, the other characters didn't really like him, except for Linda. He has a quick wit, for example Lindas walking out of the diner, and Bob is walking in. Margaret is right behind Linda. Linda says "Hi Bob." Bob replies quickly. "Salt, Pepper." Bob can make you laugh, the whole show can make you laugh. For anyone who reads this, watch the show a few times and you'll love hat show just as much as I do
