What Parents Need to Know
About Walker, Texas Ranger
Parents need to know that this '90s drama-action series features a fair amount of violence, including explosions, shootings, fistfights, and knife wounds. But it's all pretty tame by current primetime standards and blood is kept to a minimum (a trickle from a split lip, for example). What's more, the central law enforcement officials rarely use their weapons, instead relying on their martial arts expertise to disarm and subdue bad guys. Strong moral messages are woven throughout each episode, and the main characters spend much of their free time mentoring troubled youths. That said, it's likely that today's tweens will be turned off by the series' clichés and redundant predictability.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about law enforcement. Are the characters believable as real-life police officers and lawyers? If not, what seems unrealistic? Do other police dramas offer more accurate portraits cops' lives? How have cop shows changed since this show originally aired? How do you think it would be different if new episodes were on now? Families can also discuss helping others. How do the characters use their standing in their community to positively impact people's lives? Tweens: How can you lend a hand in your community to help others?

Chuck Norris rules!!!
Yeah! I love this show except it's on in the morning. The violence is pretty bad but the social behavior is good because they beat people up for a good reason. How dare Common Sense Media give this 2 stars!? It's 6 STARS OUT OF 5!!! OFF THE SCALE AWESOME. Now for a semi-serious review: The biggest problem would probably be the violence (although rape is discussed on occasion). The language isn't too bad, but when the criminal is going to do something bad, how can you help but swear? Social behavior is good because people are senselessly beaten for a good cause. You have to watch it right now! It's awesome.
