At long last, taciturn Texas Ranger Cord Walker (Chuck Norris) and Assistant D.A. Alex Cahill (Sheree J. Wilson) have gotten married, as Walker, Texas Ranger launches its ninth and final season. Alas, a pall is cast over the couple's happiness when Walker's closest friend, C.D. (Noble Willingham), is mysteriously killed. More disturbing still is the revelation that C.D.'s death is a part of a campaign of terror waged by a vicious killer who has sprung several other criminals from a maximum security prison, for the purpose of knocking off as many Texas Rangers as possible -- with Walker saved for last. Among the victims of this vendetta is Walker's partner Jimmy Trivette (Clarence Gilyard Jr.), though he manages to survive. In the series finale, Walker and a very pregnant Alex visit Jimmy in the hosptial, where Alex suddenly goes into labor, giving birth to a baby daughter. Once again, however, the couple's happiness may be short-lived -- literally so, when the assassin who has been decimating the Rangers shows up with a grenade strapped to his belt, intent upon blowing everyone whom the audience cares about to kingdom come! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Season eight of Walker, Texas Ranger resolves the cliffhanger finale of season seven, as Cord Walker (Chuck Norris), his partner Jimmy Trivette (Clarence Gilyard Jr.), his fiancée Alex Cahill (Sheree J. Wilson), and his best friend C.D. (Noble Willingham) survive a harrowing plane crash. The trick now is to get back to Dallas in time to prevent elusive serial killer Thomas Openshaw (Stephen McHattie) from being released for lack of evidence. Once this crisis is resolved, Walker and Alex begin a season-long preparation for their marriage, which will occur during the two-part season eight finale (we hope). Meanwhile, Walker's crime-fighting team has taken in two new members: undercover police officers (and masters of disguise) Francis Gage (Judson Mills) and Sydney Cooke (Nia Peeples). ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The cliffhanger that ended season six of Walker, Texas Ranger is resolved at the outset of season seven, as Assistant D.A. Alex Cahill (Sheree J. Wilson), longtime sweetheart of taciturn Texas Ranger Cord Walker (Chuck Norris), makes a full recovery after being shot down by an old enemy. This is doubly good news for Walker: not only has Alex survived, but she allows him to finish his marriage proposal, which of course she accepts. Walker himself has a lot of problems with former nemeses who show up with scores to settle during this season. Additionally, he crosses swords (and karate kicks) with Satanist child abductors, a radical splinter group from the IRA, a dangerously "creative" pedophile, and a deadly family of inbred hillbillies. One episode, "Paradise Trail," allows Chuck Norris to play the dual role of Cord Walker and his 19th century counterpart, lawman Hayes Cooper (a character he'd essayed in earlier episodes, and whose significance would ultimately be explained in the series finale two years later). In another episode, "Brothers-in-Arms," Walker's partner Jimmy Trivette (Clarence Gilyard Jr.) finds himself on the horns of a dilemma when his own brother Simon (Grand L. Bush) is ordered to kill him! Midway through the season, two Walker, Texas Ranger supporting characters, Dallas detective Carlos Sandoval (Marco Sanchez) and karate instructor Trent Malloy (James Wlcek) would be spun off into their own private eye series, the short-lived Sons of Thunder -- the pilot of which had been seen as a Walker episode two years earlier! In the nail-biting season finale, Walker, Trivette, Alex, and Walker's old friend C.D. (Noble Willingham) are transporting evidence vital to the conviction of elusive serial killer Thomas Openshaw (Stephen McHattie) when suddenly their plane crashes, leaving their ultimate fate unresolved...until the following season. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Season three of Walker, Texas Ranger finds the title character, taciturn martial arts expert Cord Walker (Chuck Norris), utilizing strong arm methods rather than such namby-pamby methods as due process to mete out justice to robbers, kidnappers, pornographers, con artists and hijackers. This season he not only pummels and kicks homegrown miscreants, but also members of the Yazuka, the Japanese version of the Mafia. Also, the two-part episode "Flashback" affords viewers a tantalizing glimpse into Walker's Old West heritage. While Walker, his partner Jimmy Trivette (Clarence Gilyard Jr.), his assistant-D.A. girlfriend Alex Cahill (Sheree J. Wilson), and his best pal C.D. Parker (Noble Willingham) manage to survive the year intact despite all manner of assaults on their persons, season three turns out to be the last for Walker's Native American uncle and spiritual guide, Ray Firewalker (Floyd Red Crow Westerman). ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

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

A teenager daydreams of getting some payback from the bullies who menace him in this hybrid of The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (1947) and The Karate Kid (1984). Barry Gabrewski (Jonathan Brandis) is an asthmatic schoolboy who can't participate in sports, much to the delight of a bullying classmate (John Buchanan) and his sadistic gym teacher (Richard Moll). Miserably unhappy, Barry escapes into a world of fantasy, where he imagines himself the tough, karate-proficient sidekick of action movie hero Chuck Norris. Trying to turn his dreams into reality, Barry visits dojo master Kelly Stone (Joe Piscopo), but Stone only mocks his aspirations. A supportive teacher introduces Barry to her uncle, Mr. Lee (Mako), a cook and martial arts teacher who takes Barry under his wing and teaches him the secrets of karate prowess. When Barry becomes good enough to enter a tournament, he needs a fourth athlete to complete his team, and who should be in the stands making a publicity appearance but the real-life Norris, who steps in to fight side-by-side with the plucky teen. Sidekicks was directed by Norris's brother and frequent collaborator Aaron Norris. ~ Karl Williams, Rovi
