Sound advice from Roger Ebert:

…better to flop while trying to do something good than flop in something that could not be good, was never going to be good, and only gets worse as it plows along.

Personally, I also like The Onion‘s opinion that:

Hollywood insiders have expressed skepticism that audiences will accept anything called Taxi that does not prominently feature Jeff Conaway.

Although maybe that’s just because I’ve been rewatching Conway in episodes of Babylon 5 lately.
