Odd Taxi pulled up with little fanfare, unknown staff, and a bizarre name. Thirteen weeks later, I sit here shocked at how much I enjoyed this ride. Exceeding expectations and not falling prey to any of my worries, Odd Taxi was a tightly written – with a few head-scratching elements – cleanly executed, multimedia mystery/drama/romance/heist.

A word on my grading criteria. For me, each show has 50 points to earn and 50 points to lose. Points are earned by going above and beyond the norm – showing me something I hadn’t seen or making me feel something unexpected. Something that makes me applaud.
Points are lost when I feel a component of the show was below average or less than acceptable in terms of animation, storyline, etc. Something that takes away from the show as a whole.
