In the second full season of Walker: Texas Ranger (this is, technically, season 3), a somewhat reigned-in Walker (Chuck Norris) is less Dirty Harry and more by-the-book, providing, of course, that the book has plenty of pictures of criminals being subdued with roundhouse kicks to the head. In one episode, Walker's partner, Jimmy Trivette (Clarence Gilyard), suggests serving a warrant his way, "nice and easy." There's just one thing: Walker never, ever, does anything nice and easy. He does it nice and rough, and when you're dealing with the likes of drug dealers, bank robbers, assassins, cattle rustlers, the Japanese mob, and vengeful escaped convicts, that's the only way to do it. "If you come back here," a bigoted sheriff warns Walker in the episode "Badge of Honor," "you'd better bring an army because you alone just ain't gonna cut it." Actually, that'll cut it just fine. What makes Walker so satisfying is that justice may be delayed, but it is never denied. In the episode, "Mean Streets," Walker goes undercover to protect the homeless from a band of rich kids who are preying on them and videotaping the attacks. If this were, say, Law & Order, the kids' parents would hire an elite defense team and the kids might get off scot-free. That's not the way they roll on Walker: Texas Ranger. With the kids in custody, viewers are promised an "easy" conviction. What really kicks this season into high gear is the show's new theme song, "Eyes of a Ranger," performed by Norris himself. Jeff Foxworthy has joked, "If an episode of Walker: Texas Ranger has changed your life, you might be a redneck." Granted, Walker may not be life-changing TV a la Oprah, but there is considerable spiritual uplift in watching an incorruptible hero tossing Texas' scum of the earth into the back of his pickup truck and taking them to jail. We join Asst. D.A. Alex Cahill (Sheree J. Wilson) in raising a glass to Walker. "Here's to the Texas Rangers," she toasts in one episode, "the best there are." --Donald Liebenson

 Don't mess with Walker or Chuck July 9, 2008

This is a great season, some real cliff hangers here.
I can't wait to get season three, they really captured the Spirit of Texas with Walker TR. If you are exiled from the great Nation of Texas this will scratch the itch.
The second (technically third) season of Chuck Norris at his best! May 26, 2008

There is not much I can say about this second season release of Walker Texas Ranger. That is because really nothing has changed from the first season. The plots are different of course, but there's still just as much action, excitement, and suspense. Expect more roundhouse kicks, nefarious villains, and truly hilarious moments the way it was all meant to be. You can also expect that same sense of justice when evil criminals are tossed into the bed of Walker's pickup truck, and the awesome new theme song - "The Eyes of a Ranger". It's bigger, better, and it's all here! Below is a list of episodes included in this seven disc DVD set.

 Too expensive November 20, 2007

Even though this is eligable for the free shipping, I found this over 50% cheaper at Wal-Mart (24.95 when I purchased it this evening). And becareful if you want to return this product, they will charge you the shipping even though the shipping is free.
Great show November 18, 2007
This show kicks butt, After watching Walker for so many years I tend to wonder if Walker can ever be stopped. My favorite episode is when Walker get's bitten by a deadly Scorpion and is left for dead but he closes his eyes and summons the great spirit and wakes up like nothing happend
Great Show June 12, 2007

This is a very interesting, action filled show. It's a good law-enforcement show starring Chuck Norris as Walker, Texas Ranger. In every episode there is a lot of excitment and it keeps you wondering who the criminal is through the whole show.
