Editorial Review:
Martial arts star Chuck Norris made his transition to the small screen with the action-packed television drama WALKER TEXAS RANGER. Lasting for nine seasons the series followed the crime-fighting adventures of tough-guy Texas Ranger Cord Walker (Norris) as he brought justice to the streets of Dallas with a well-placed karate chop to the city's more nefarious criminals. Walker's unconventional interrogation methods clashed with his computer-expert partner Jimmy Trivette (Clarence Gilyard) and the by-the-book county D.A. Alex Cahill (Sheree Wilson) who also functioned as Walker's love interest. This collection presents the series' third season in its entirety.Runtime: 1140 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: NR UPC: 097368515741 Manufacturer No: 851574
Description of Walker, Texas Ranger - The Third Season:
Three seasons of dispensing his own brand of roundhouse-kicking justice have not slowed Texas Ranger Cordell Walker (Chuck Norris). As an appreciative observer remarks at one point during season 3, "You still have all the moves, Walker." Whether going undercover as a cocaine dealer in Miami or "delivering a little pain" against white supremacists, Russian mobsters, street gangs, IRA terrorists, heroin smugglers, or vengeful ex-convicts, Walker is "a damn one-man army" who "walks the walk and talks the talk." No one delivers Chuck-isms such as, "The bigger they are, the harder they hit" like Norris. Walker, Texas Ranger's third season is a bit edgier than seasons past. The language is a tad cruder and the action more graphic. The episode "The Juggernaut," about a wife beater terrorizing a woman's support group, is particularly rough stuff. In the explosive season opener, "Blown Apart," a Bible-quoting mad bomber unleashes a holocaust of fiery destruction that even Walker cannot defuse in time. Among the season's most memorable episodes is "Final Justice," in which Walker discovers that the man who killed his parents when he was a boy is still alive, leading to a most dangerous game in which Walker becomes the prey of this hunt-happy racist (portrayed by John Vernon, best known as Dean Wormer in Animal House). In "Deep Cover," Walker partners up with a female cop played by world champion kickboxer Kathy Long, who, as an actress, makes a great world champion kickboxer. "Blackout" opens intriguingly with an amnesiac Walker waking up in a casino office clad in a tuxedo, holding a gun and lying next to a dead body. Chuck Norris commentary would have been a real kick, but then again, he is a man of action, and this season does deliver for Walker fans. --Donald Liebenson
Walker, Texas Ranger - The Third Season Reviews:
Very pleased. 
2008-07-14 - The product came in excellent condition and delivered on time. Would recommend to a friend.
The best action series on television. 
2007-09-03 - I have the two seasons that were released prior to this one. I love actionseries on television. I was very happy when I found out that Chuck Norris was going to star in a television series that not only had action, but heart. I am going to get the other seasons of the series as they become available. If you are an action fan, this series is for you!
Getting better every season 
2007-08-15 - Walker Texas ranger is getting better every season. Family show, but also a learning curb for all. Episodes relate to everyday issues.
Great Collection 
2007-07-16 - I really enjoyed the 3rd Season Collection. I have been a fan of the show for a long time, and I can't wait for the other ones to be released. Watching it on DVD is great, because you see some scenes in the episodes that were cut out because of commercials. The quality of the DVD's are real clear and sharp. I recommend this set and all the other ones too.
It is great for any Chcuk Norris fan 
2007-07-14 - This has been very enjoyable for my husband and son---both of whom are Chuck Norris fans. They are happy that they now own the serties.
