  • Walker, Texas Ranger comes from a long line of Texas Rangers which, like the Queen of England, are merely figureheads in the actual governmental process, but like Bruce Lee, kick butt royally, as it were. Every leader of this elite order is declared the King of Texas and is given a portion of land taxes. He is referred to as his Highness, my Lord, King of the Texans, or the Walker. Every leader is considered perfect and without sin as long as the Walker is speaking on the seat of power and the words are regarded as absolute truth without question.

After three pilot episodes, it aired on CBS for eight seasons from 21 April 1993 to 19 May 2001. The early episodes featured some Cherokee mysticism. But since Norris, according to his own account, "recommitted [his] life as a Christian in the mid-'90s", later episodes featured an increased use of Christian symbolism and an emphasis on family issues.

Wilson), who also serves as his love interest, and veteran Ranger C.D. Parker (the late Noble Willingham). Subject to much Memetic Mutation in the 2000s. This is thanks, at least partially, to Conan O'Brien, who used to play unintentionally humorous clips from the series on his show by way of the "Walker Texas Ranger Lever". As well as the general Memetic Badassness of Chuck Norris.

  • Walker, Texas Ranger comes from a long line of Texas Rangers which, like the Queen of England, are merely figureheads in the actual governmental process, but like Bruce Lee, kick butt royally, as it were. Every leader of this elite order is declared the King of Texas and is given a portion of land taxes. He is referred to as his Highness, my Lord, King of the Texans, or the Walker. Every leader is considered perfect and without sin as long as the Walker is speaking on the seat of power and the words are regarded as absolute truth without question. The prophecies speak of the time to come when Texas will finally assert its dominance above that of liberals and will prove once and for all that Barack Obama, the 44th President of the United States, is in fact a closet admirer of Satan and aligned politically with communism. The leader of this uprising will vanquish the Dark Corruptor of Culture, declare that day Republican Day, and proclaim the inferiority of leftist-slanted public schools to that of homeschooling. This man will be great and will possess years of power. Rangers were once a part of the elite English anti-terrorist unit, the Black Watch which itself was brought about by the need to infiltrate the Catholic Priesthood during the Spanish Inquisition. The initial group of Rangers swore their fealty to Chuck Norris, the founder of the Rangers at the battle of Pecos River in which the Rangers were essential to victory using the controversial Picard Maneuver. Ever since, the King has also been known by the title, Walker much in the same way as the Caesars.

  • Walker, Texas Ranger is an American television television series that was created by Leslie Grief and Paul Haggis. After three pilot episodes, it aired on CBS for eight seasons from 21 April 1993 to 19 May 2001. The eponymous hero of the show is Cordell Walker (Chuck Norris), a Dallas/Fort Worth-based member of the Texas Rangers, which is the state-level bureau of investigation. Walker was raised by his paternal uncle, a Native American named Ray Firewalker (Floyd Red Crow Westerman), who served in the Marines' elite Recon unit during the Vietnam War. Both Cordell and Uncle Ray share the values characteristic of Wild West sheriffs. Walker's partner is James "Jimmy" Trivette (Clarence Gilyard), a former Dallas Cowboys player who takes a more modern approach to fighting crime. Whereas Walker is noted for his martial arts abilities, Trivette uses computers to collect information. Walker also gets advice on cases from C.D. Parker (Noble Willingham), a veteran Ranger who retired to operate a small restaurant and bar. The early episodes featured some Cherokee mysticism. But since Norris, according to his own account, "recommitted [his] life as a Christian in the mid-'90s", later episodes featured an increased use of Christian symbolism and an emphasis on family issues.
