BECKER
centers on the life of Dr. John Becker, a cantankerous, yet dedicated
and talented physician, who, in spite of his constant rants, has
a decent heart underneath the sarcasm. BECKER will continue to unleash
his views at the local diner, even in Reggie’s continuing
absense. Jake (Alex Desert), the blind proprietor of the local newsstand
continues to turn a deaf ear to John. Bob, Becker’s brash,
obnoxious apartment super (Saverio Guerra), persists in annoying
virtually everyone. At the office, Becker’s head nurse Margaret
(Hattie Winston) continues to make order out of chaos, keeping John
and his space-cadet nurses-aid Linda (Shawnee Smith) in line. He
has no qualms about saying what comes to mind, never sugarcoats
his opinions and often seems to offend somebody nearby. However,
his friends and colleagues recognize the heart beneath the hate
and so accept his gruff demeanor for what it is.
Paramount has finally

to DVD on April 1th,
2008. The series, which starred Ted Danson
