Hirsch played Alex Reiger, the down-to-earth cab driver everyone in the Sunshine Cab Company turns to, who is also the only driver who considers it his career, not just a temporary job like most of the others.
Danza played boxer and Vietnam veteran Tony Banta, who joined Sunshine Cab after losing his boxing license.
Lloyd played Reverend Jim Ignatowski, who was a guest star in the first season and was upgraded to a main cast member for the remainder of the show’s five seasons.
He won two back-to-back Emmy Awards for playing the character in 1982 and 1983, and is considered one of the greatest TV characters of all time.
Kane played Simka Dahblitz-Gravas, who dated on the show and eventually married Latka (Andy Kaufman).
