BECKER is a half-hour comedy series starring multiple Emmy Award-winner Ted Danson as Dr. John Becker, a dedicated and talented physician who’s extremely devoted to his medical practice in the Bronx, N.Y. However, because Dr. Becker looks at the world around him and sees a society gone mad, he has no qualms about saying anything that comes to mind. Becker often unleashes his views on his friends – Jake, the blind proprietor of the local newsstand; Bob, the annoying, yet somehow likable super of Becker’s apartment building; his head nurse, Margaret; and Linda, his slightly ditzy nurse’s aide.
