Is there anything on TV lamer than Walker Texas Ranger?
If there is I haven't seen it yet. Simple minded plot liines, stereotypical bad guys, and moralistic good vs. evil themes. I think it's even more unintentionally funny than the old Dragnet shows.

3. Currently?
I don't know.

Airwolf would give it a run for its money. Yes, I used to watch it. File footage of drones / Migs getting shot down was always exciting :eyes:

4. You've never actually watched TV, have you?
Because there's no way you'd ask that question if you'd been exposed to such dreck as America's Got Talent, etc...

:P

10. I watch Countdown, Mythbusters Bill Maher and the Sopranos
once in a while some hunting/fishing shows and sporting events. Other than that I rarely go near the thing. My wife is sick and the TV was on while I was cooking breakfast for her.

But I suppose your point is well taken. We get like 500 channels so probably haven't even scratched the surface of the doo doo that lurks therein.

11. Walker, Texas Corpse
The joke is that it's the name of a certain unprintable-on-DU (A.C.) band's song.

Your character's supposed to be 40
But you have to be at least 80
The make-up department should win an emmy
For making people think your alive


Chuck Norris- you're really fucking old

You're the worst singer I have ever heard
You're even worse than I am
You should be climbing out of a grave
While you sing the fucking theme song



You look like you just got embalmed
And were shopping for a coffin


. . . and so on and so on.

14. Ah, but Knight Rider at least had a cool car
All Walker can boast is arthritic slow-motion spin kicks from a dead-eyed Bush partisan.

16. Ya'll always notice that it is always winter, never hot.
What part of Texas is that, I want to move there.

At least the Ranger wears tight pants.
