Walker, Texas Ranger (1993–2001)
2/10
NOTHING MORE THAN A VANITY PROJECT
18 May 2020
Walker can do no wrong. He's a better fighter, better shot, better athlete, better looking than everyone else in the state of Texas. He's even better at darts or chess than his partner and perpetual punching bag Trivette. He ends up saving the day in each episode, sharing none of the glory or accolades.

This show is nothing more than a way for Chuck Norris to stroke his ego.

I can only imagine him sitting in on writer meetings: Writer: Okay, let's have Walker go into a bar, get the snot beat out of him and Trivette shows up and takes care of business.

Chuck: I like it. But let's have Trivette get the snot beat out of him and Walker takes care of business.

Writer: But Chuck, it's been done to death. Can't we change it up a bit?

Chuck: You're fired! Who else has any original ideas?

All the other writers sit there silent.

BTW do NOT play the Walker drinking game with this show. When it first came out, my friends and I would take a shot every time someone said "Walker". I nearly died from alcohol poisoning.
