Taxi Brooklyn Premiered on TF1 on April 14, 2014



Taxi: Brooklyn South, a 12-episode TF1 drama series set and filming in the U.S., has assembled a cast of familiar American TV names. Grey’s Anatomy alumna Chyler Leigh and Jacky Ido (Inglorious Basterds) are set as the leads in the project, based on Luc Besson’s Taxi feature franchise. Former Blue Bloods co-star Jennifer Esposito, Ally Walker (Profiler), James Colby (Body Of Proof), Bill Heck (Person Of Interest), Jose Zuniga and Raul Casso round out the cast of the series, written by Gary Scott Thompson (The Fast And The Furious) who serves as showrunner. Shooting started in New York last week without U.S. distribution locked in yet, something the producers from EuropaCorp and TF1 plan to pursue when they have a finished product in hand. Taxi: Brooklyn South centers on Caitlyn Sullivan (Leigh), a brilliant investigator at the Brooklyn Police Station whose stubborn character and her recklessness behind the wheel have made her an outcast within the NYPD. She teams with Marseille-born Leo Romba, a happy New York Taxi driver full of energy and care for his clients, to form the most improbable and efficient partnership to solve crimes and mysteries around Brooklyn. The first two episodes of the series are being directed by Olivier Megaton (Taken 2).

That was some impressive driving by the cabbie but handcuffing him while she chased the passenger was amusing but flirting with Cat was painful, Monica's joke about people dying to meet her was funny and Cat's mother hiding Leo in her bed was priceless

PS Chyler Leigh new look looked so different to her role as Lexie Grey

Yes it was but we knew with his driving he must have done it before but she really has trust issues they could make a good team but he wouldn't make any money unless the police department pays him ?.

How can he be taxi driver when she will need him during the day ?

I thought this was a fairly okay pilot especially for the summer.  I enjoyed the banter between the cabbie and det Sullivan.  Her mom was great too.  Hiding him in her bed was great!

I'm not sure either bala how the cabbie will make a stitch of money.  Unless he picks up with her in car.  Maybe the dept will part-time him or something. I look forward to figuring out.  

I really enjoyed the movie.  Hope this isn't too lame.

I just checked out the film this morning with Queen Latifah supped up taxi which was awesome but the robbers gave her a run for her money and the officers face while frisking Lt. Marta was priceless, using her old cycle crew to follow them was a nice touch

Cat's mother being in the back of the taxi when she called Leo was amusing and Leo being able to identify where the butt dialled phone call came from was impressive but Cat hallucinating was priceless

The 10 year old kid giving Cat a hard time was amusing but climbing out the toilet window did make it look like he was hiding something and Leo using the taxi's as their eye's and ears to find him was great as there are a lot more of them than the police, finding out what sort of foster family the kids were left with was sad

Of all the streets in Brooklyn to ambush a prison-transport van they had to do it in-front of Cat but one of the escapees being linked to the murder of Cat's father was pushing it a little to far and setting her mother up on a date with the Captain was amusing

Leo having to turn down a booty call to meet Cat was unfortunate timing but at leased this time he is being paid and the stalker's wife being murdered when she was suing Cat could make things awkward but Leo getting stabbed trying to rescue Cat from her stalker was a close call

i did find refreshing it was women stalker instead of man normally have same gender stalker is very uncommon?,
Author: bala    Time: 8-14-2014 05:32     Subject: Deadline Brooklyn

I have to say this was one of the best episode so far this season , a actual episode which kept my focus usually i have this show playing in the background while i play some on-line games but this was first time where start of the episode really hooked me . Seriously you are telling your son all about this would certainly make him very worried .

Cat's reaction to the guy getting out of the dumpster was amusing as she thought he was dead and Leo believing that there's a zombie outbreak was priceless but in all fairness catching the egg was awesome

Fernanda was lucky that Frankie cuts her trip short to walk the rest of the way through the park and a professional hit on the maid was surprising but the hit-man getting away from the hospital was crazy considering the police were watching her room

I thought the attempted rape outside the station was a little suspicious but what happened inside was a surprise as it looked like Cat searched him properly and discovering it was somebody in the station gave him the gun was sickening

Poor Cat having her new car damaged over and over again but you just knew something was going to happen as Leo wouldn't be around as much and the fact only the last one was her fault was unbelievable

Gregg waking up next to the dead girl was surprising and you can understand with his scratches why they suspected him but while Cat was helping him she was being framed for murder which was a little predictable as his wife seen her following him
