List of Walker, Texas Ranger episodes


The following is a list of episodes from the American television series Walker, Texas Ranger. A total of 201 episodes aired from April 21, 1993, to May 19, 2001. Although some sources identify the first 3 episodes aired at the end of the 1992-1993 television season, as the first season (making 9 seasons in the series overall), those episodes are included in the Season 1 (1993–1994) DVD release and are not acknowledged as a separate season.

This two-hour premiere episode introduces Cordell Walker (Chuck Norris), a contemporary Texas Ranger. During a bank robbery in Dallas, Ranger Cordell Walker's partner Bob Mobley (Steven Ruge) is killed. Walker's new partner, Ranger Jimmy Trivette (Clarence Gilyard), has a history with one of the suspects in the robbery. Trying to solve the case, Walker discovers that the robbery could have been a test for a much bigger goal: simultaneously robbing four banks lying next to each other. After a bomb explodes in a bank across town which has just gotten in a valuable shipment, everyone goes to that bank. When the actual robbery starts at the other four banks, it falls to Walker to stop the robbers and their leader, former CIA agent Orson Wade (Marshall Teague).

In a subplot, Walker helps a young circus acrobat who was brutally raped by three goons cope with her assault and later protects her and two Russian jugglers who witnessed and stopped her attack, from the trio who try to run them out of town.

While Tarrant County Assistant D.A. Alex Cahill is trying to prosecute cop killer Benny Carl Devlin (Ray Lykins), she gets a veiled threat from former Cuervo County sheriff Dewey Baker (Leon Rippy) -- the first person she ever put away. Alex had put Baker away because he routinely beat up suspects, and he terrorized anyone who complained about it.

When a powerful Yakuza leader Mitsua Usagi (Danny Kamekona) is killed in Tokyo by Congressman Leo Cabe's assistant, Karl Jaeker (John S. Davies), the Yakuza follows Cabe (Andrew Robinson) back to the States, and East meets the Wild West when Walker and Trivette are sent to protect Cabe. However, Cabe might be lying about his relations with the Yakuza.

Bank robber Roy Buchanan is accidentally arrested, but when he is let go, he not only has Walker and Trivette on his heels, but a deadly bounty hunter by the name of Waxwell as well. Then Walker races to stop Waxwell from murdering Roy's brother Ned when it's discovered he was unwittingly involved.

Work-related stress builds so Walker, under doctor's advice, takes Trivette & C.D. to Cajun country for a fishing trip. But the vacation turns sour when local ruffians grow tired of the Rangers' presence and take desperate measures to conceal their drug trade.
