Becker Trailers

View All

Becker is a dedicated, outspoken and talented doctor with a gruff exterior. While he tends to offend those who try to get close to him, he is extremely dedicated to his medical practice in the Bronx, N.Y., where he always goes the extra mile to help those in need. But Dr. John Becker looks at the world around him and sees a society gone mad, full of incongruities and just plain wrong thinking. And he has no qualms about saying anything that comes to mind – anything.

Becker Audience Reviews

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Keira Brennan The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
michael thompson Ted Danson nails Becker. And Becker is every man..As an Englishman, I would say that Becker is the sharpest comedy on the block since Neil Simon's The Odd Couple.When Terry Ferrell left the show it lost something. Becker is a very very sharp comedy, even the canned laughter works, and every character is strong, and the writers are brilliant.Then the character Bob left the show, and the last series lost something.Well done to Dave Hackel for creating this character. I for one would like to know what or who gave Dave Hackel the idea for Becker ?, and who choose Ted Danson for the the role of Doctor John Becker ?????10 out of 10 for this screwball, ultimately farcical comedy.
leeland_h This is a wonderful show if you can get past seeing Ted Danson as Sam Malone from Cheers. If you can't get Sam Malone out of your head, you won't be able to fully enjoy this wonderful show.The writing is top notch. Shawnee Smith does a great job. (kind of hard to see her in the "SAW" series). The 9-11 episode (Subway Story) was VERY, VERY good and very well written. Becker is the original House. It ended at the perfect time. Most successful shows go way past their prime. (can you say The Simpsons, which is one of my favorite shows) It is shows like this that bring a sense of nostalgia when you re-watch them. I can't explain it, it just does.
dalegough1 what medical field was john Becker so "promising" in as Reggie referred to (something her late father said) it in seas 1, was his divorce (1st or 2nd) part of the reason he was in the Bronx helping out the poorer folk eg - wife/wives cleaned him out?, wife/wives scandalised johns name so he couldn't work in the ritzy part of town with wealthy patients?, was he researching something and then either grew discouraged (thru family or friend having got the specific disease he was researching?, or did he have a fit of conscience (why a fit of conscience) and go there to deal with those who couldn't really afford medical care? what was he so good at that it was mentioned by Reggie and her late dad. is it just one of those things which was a line on a script and the background was never either written or thought about. love the show, waiting for the seas 2 DVD to come out.
poo_de_doo Unfortunately, I didn't discover "Becker" until it hit syndication. I now watch it regularly and love it. I am glad that we get to see many things as reruns. I enjoy the Office characters. Linda just seems to draw you into her zanyness week after week. Having a blind newspaper salesman was a stroke of genius, not because you pity him, but because he is so real. I don't know how the series ends, but I bet John and Chris don't end up together. Tell me if I'm wrong! LOL Anyway, I do hope I can come up with ten lines so my kudos get posted. Thank you Ted Danson for another A-1 sitcom. Did the show ever win any awards or recognitions for the actors success? I better hit Google and do a search.
