Multiple Emmy winner Ted Danson stars as John
Becker, a dedicated and talented doctor with
a gruff exterior. Unfortunately, his interior
isn't all that warm and fuzzy either. While he
offends those around who try to get close to
him, he is extremely dedicated to his medical
practice in the Bronx where he always goes
the extra mile to help those in need.
John looks at the world around him and sees
society gone mad - full of incongruities and
just plain wrong thinking. And he has no qualms
about saying anything that comes to his mind.
Becker often unleashes his views at the local
diner where Reggie, the lovely woman who
recently inherited the place, doesn't quite know
what to make of this madman. However, Jake,
the blind proprietor of the local newsstand, is
used to John and does his best to explain
the "Becker phenomenon" to Reggie. Bob,
the annoying, yet somehow likable Bronx denizen,
would rather talk about himself (in the third person).
At his office, the waiting room is usually
teeming with patients from his ethnically
diverse neighborhood. His head nurse, Margaret,
has the job of making order of this chaos.
She does so with ease, deals with John and
still has the energy to deal with Linda, the
space-cadet who doubles as the nurses' aide.
Dealing with John Becker is quite an experience.
And, even though he seems to be insulting them
at every turn, the people in his life persist
in trying to connect with him and find the
nice guy they know is in there somewhere.
Becker must also deal with new neighbor Chris Conner,
who could soon become a love interest.
