The most unrealistic--and awesome--cop show of all time., 15 July 2004

This show was so much fun, I don't even know where to begin.
I
loved it as a kid, and I still love it now when I see it in reruns...
only
now it seems hilariously hokey, which makes it even better.
Not only did every single episode have the exact same plot
(evil
criminal mastermind wants to get rich and/or take over Texas),
but
the EXACT SAME THINGS happened, too. For instance, in
EVERY
episode of the show, Walker and Trivette would walk into a
bar
and start questioning the bartender. After about 15 seconds
of
questioning, the bartender, along with 10 or 20 random
patrons,
would break out in karate. Apparently everyone in Texas
knows
karate. It's like a cult down there.
And then there were the episodes where Walker would tell
stories
of a Texas sheriff who lived in the days of the Old West... who
was,
of course, played by Chuck Norris. I believe there was also
an
episode where Walker himself was transported back in time
to
the Old West.
I could go on and on, but I'll just summarize by saying that it
was
an awesome show, with awesome karate fights, and awesomely
unrealistic plots. But of course, it was never meant to be
taken
seriously; it was just meant to be enjoyed. It also neatly
wrapped
up every episode with a nice moral or message. Thank you,
Chuck Norris, for eight years of ass-kicking action.
