Halfway through its fifth and final season, Taxi briefly returned to its familiar Thursday-night berth for a "celebration" of the series' past 105 episodes. Highlights (mostly gleaned from the show's Emmy-winning episodes) include the tempestuous romance between Louie and Zena (played by real-life husband and wife Danny DeVito and Rhea Perlman), the uncomfortable meeting between macho Tony (Tony Danza) and the decidedly less-than-macho Kirk (John David Carson), and the grim "psychic" prognostications of Rev. Jim (Christopher Lloyd) which bode ill for Alex (Judd Hirsch). Originally telecast as a one-hour special, "A Taxi Celebration" has been re-edited as two half-hour episodes for syndication.
