Walker, Texas Ranger: Season 02 (1994) Reviews

After a three-episode trial run in the spring of 1993, the contemporary Western Walker, Texas Ranger graduated to full weekly status as it began its second season in the fall of that year. Star of the proceedings is Chuck Norris as taciturn, karate-chopping Texas Ranger Cord Walker, who operates out of the organization's Dallas office with his more scientific partner, Jimmy Trivette (Clarence Gilyard Jr.). While Walker tends to get his best results by smashing the heads and cracking the ribs of criminals, these methods are frowned upon by his erstwhile girlfriend, assistant D.A. Alex Cahill (Sheree J. Wilson). This season, Walker tangles with clever crooks who have been released on the flimsiest of technicalities, overambitious bounty hunters, a gang of skyjackers, a vicious illegal adoption ring, and even a hurricane. We are also given a glimpse into Walker's Native American heritage as he tries to protect his cousin David Little Eagle (Gregg Rainwater), after David has stumbled upon the grisly evidence of a modern day massacre. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
