## Description

Product Description Ted Danson stars as Dr. Becker, a sharp-tongued physician whose arrogance is only matched by his dedication to his patients. Brash and opinionated, Becker is a specialist in rubbing people the wrong way. But beneath his prickly exterior Becker is really just a softhearted teddy bear just don't tell him that. Operating a small practice in the Bronx, Dr. Becker's entourage of opponents/associates includes happy-go-lucky neighbor Chris Konnors (Nancy Travis), dependable head nurse Margaret (Hattie Winston), and spoiled-rich-girl Linda (Shawnee Smith). with this wry series Ted Danson finally found success after CHEERS, and an irascible character who would erase all memory of bartender Sam Malone. This collection presents the series' complete debut season. Star Ted Danson, Hattie Winston, Terry Farrell, Alex Desert, Shawnee Smith, Savio Guerra Special Features: 3-Disc Set Full Frame - 1.33 Audio: Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround English Runtime: 370 minutes Year of Release: 1998. desertcart.com "Arent doctors supposed to be nice?" Running for six seasons, Becker broke the Cheers curse (RIP: Good Advice, Inc, Pearl). The role of Dr. John Becker was just what the doctor ordered for Ted Danson. Becker is, according to those who know, and grudgingly admire him, best, "a miserable human being" and "such an ass," but "a brilliant one." As for his bedside manner, he makes House seem like Marcus Welby. But this being a sitcom, the cynical and politically incorrect Becker also must have a heart. In the pilot episode, it is revealed that he will secretly pay for treatments for an HIV-positive seven-year-old. "You may go to heaven whether you like it or not," his chief of staff Margaret (Hattie Winston) tells him. Becker divides his time between his chaotic clinic and the local diner, where he alienates the patrons with his tirades on subjects ranging from Jerry Springer to reality shows. In its promising first season, theres nothing wrong with Becker that sharper writing cant cure. The first season suffers slightly from Night Court-itus; the gritty urban setting glimpsed in the shows interstitials undercut by the broadly-drawn character types who are either Beckers patients, or simply try his patience, like his flaky new nurses assistant (Shawnee Smith) or on the make diner (as opposed to lounge) lizard Bob (Saverio Guerra). Much better company are Jake (Alex Desert), the blind diner newsstand vendor, and "Reggie" (Terry Farrell), a gives-as-good-as-she-gets gal in the mold of Frasiers Roz. Becker and Reggie arent exactly Sam and Diane, but this season sets the stage for romantic possibilities (although the season finale, in which he wrestles with whether to ask her to a formal charity benefit, is anti-climactic). As the season unfolds, Becker more closely examines the good doctors misanthropy. One of the seasons better episodes is "Becker the Elder," featuring Dick van Dyke as Beckers estranged salesman father, who is as charming as Becker is abrasive. In "Activate Your Choices," we meet Beckers ex-wife, who has written a self-help book in which she diagnoses Becker as "Angry Man." There are no spoonfuls of sugar (extras) to help the medicine go down, but for those who made an appointment to see Danson and company every week, the DVD release of Becker is good for what ails you. --Donald Liebenson

Review: The Uniquenss Of "Becker" Is Not To Be Missed - Everybody thought "House M.D." was such an original show when it debuted in 2004 with its wise-cracking sarcastic Dr. Gregory House. Though this was more of a drama, nobody seemed to realize that Ted Danson is the one who made that popular, way back in 1998 as Dr. John Becker. "Becker" is one of the funniest shows ever to hit TV, but sadly some casting changes and other behind-the-scenes squabbling brought the show to a slow demise after about six seasons. Ted Danson gives some of his best work here. If you think the rants of Dr. Cox on "Scrubs" are funny, just wait until Becker storms into his office ranting about the bums on the street, the city health department, the justice system, humanity in general or any one the upteen-million things that seem to make him angry. The true heart of this show is it's sheer originality and unique characters - Becker's dim-witted female assistant, Linda, could have been a walking cliche were she portrayed by a busty blond, instead she's portrayed by the raven-haired Shawnee Smith (of "Saw" fame) with perfect comedic timing; Margaret is Dr. Becker's nurse, a heavy-set Bible-thumping black woman who is the perfect opposite of Becker's in-your-face sarcasm, anger and rants against God and religion; then there's Jake, Becker's blind best friend who, although he becomes the butt of many jokes, holds his own as one of the show's leading men; there's Reggie, the middle-aged ex-model turned diner owner who can't get a date despite her drop-dead gorgeous looks; and Bob, the fast talking nitwit who annoys everyone yet manages to remain an appealing part of the show. Other characters constantly move in and out of the show with many famous stars making guest appearances. Naturally "Becker" falls prey to many common sitcom gags and it's formula never really changes, which makes it a bit redundant after a while. Still, it's not one to miss!
Review: A really awesome show - I received this DVD within 3 days and the quality was superb. I would highly recommend this seller to anybody that wants a great purchase. The show is absolutely hilarious and has so many great characters to feed off of. Loved Ted Danson in Cheers and he does an exceptional job portraying somebody that is so different from the role of Sam Malone. I recommend this show that loves truly well written comedy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hysterical, well-acted. And mechanically flawed
*by J***N on April 29, 2014*

My wife and I got to about episode 3 or 4. We hadn't seen the first season of Becker, and much enjoyed learning how the series started off. The first episodes take no time at all descending into the forthright misanthropy that colors the whole series. Maybe Becker is just a little bit more human than average in the first episode, as we get to witness the crabbed, chain-smoking grump plop down his own savings to help a child with AIDS. Almost too good to stand. But the New Yawwk sarcasm and casual grouchiness are all there from the start, deliciously honest relief for those of us who live in the more repressed Christofascist provinces. My only complaint - but it is a big one - is physical quality. The DVD started freezing up around episode 4. I felt too depresed to try to watch more. I don't like that "ripped off" feeling. Note to Amazon or whoever's responsible for quality assurance: pay that extra ten cents per copy, to guarantee the thing is reliable.
