Summary of Becker

Ted Danson stars as Dr. Becker, a sharp-tongued physician whose arrogance is only matched by his dedication to his patients. Brash and opinionated, Becker is a specialist in rubbing people the wrong way. But beneath the prickly exterior Becker is really just a softhearted teddy bear--just don't tell him that. Operating a small practice in the Bronx, Dr. Becker has an entourage of opponents/associates that includes happy-go-lucky neighbor Chris Konnors (Nancy Travis), dependable head nurse Margaret (Hattie Winston), and spoiled-rich-girl Linda (Shawnee Smith). With this wry series Ted Danson finally found success after CHEERS, and an irascible character who would erase all memory of bartender Sam Malone.
