Walker (2021– )

 A widowed father returns to Austin after two years, attempting to reconnect with his children, navigate clashes with his family, and find common ground with his new partner, while growing increasingly suspicious of his wife's death. A reimagining of the long-running series "Walker, Texas Ranger," "Walker" follows the adventures of Cordell Walker, a widower and father of two with his own moral code, as he returns home to Austin after being under cover for two years, only to discover there's harder work to be done at home. He must attempt to reconnect with his creative and thoughtful son and his headstrong, somewhat rebellious teenage daughter and navigate clashes with his family - an ADA brother who stepped in during Walker's absence, his perceptive mother and his traditional rancher father. Walker finds unexpected common ground with his new partner while growing increasingly suspicious about the circumstances surrounding his wife's death. I am in episode 7 of Walker and oh boy. I think maybe it was too soon for Jared to be a leading man, he clearly misses being in the 3 Musketeers of what was the g.o.a.t of Supernatural. He's uneasy, emotional and unsure where he belongs in Walker. Genevieve, does her best to be supportive on the show but it still falls flat. The stories,action and fighting are boring and predictable, nothing like the glory that is Chuck Norris. Why didn't Jared meet Chuck at the dojo and make him his Walker Sensei? What a missed opportunity! I appreciate the multicultural cast and I love Molly Hagan and Mitch Pileggi as Walkers parents and that cutie Matt Barr as his frenemy. This show needs to STEP IT UP if it's going to survive.
