Walker

Sometimes it's best to leave a good thing alone. I forced myself to watch the entire pilot in efforts to give the show a fair shake. This "reboot" didn't resemble the original in any way possible. Why not just make a completely different show? If you are a fan of the original- stay as far away from this show as you can.

I want to like this show more. I love the cast. But I'd like to see real story lines where there's crimes to solve and justice for breaking the law that DOESN'T involve the entire family CONSTANTLY being the center of danger and kidnappings and suspicions of being criminals themselves... Come on now. This show could be amazing if the family could stop being targets. Give the characters a story line where they are real people with real problems and let the rangers solve non-personal crimes. I keep watching it hoping it'll get better. If they changed the writing, this show could stay on for many years.

First off, I'm a big fan of Jared's, and was looking forward to seeing him in a new show. I never watched the original Walker much, as it was a little to cheesy for my taste, but I've always loved Chuck Norris.

Anyway, this show is very different from the original. I think a remake has a right to break new ground or change itself a bit. After all, that's kind of the point of a remake. However, in this case, the whole ranger/crime-solving aspect of the show takes a total back seat to all the family drama. It's basically a soap opera. There's very little action, too.

And as much as I hate to say it, much of the criticism of Jared's acting is accurate. He's an insecure, stuttering mess most of the time, unsure of what to do, but of course his strong female partner is always there to save the day. I wish they'd portray him as strong, confident, and sure of himself.

I watched the first couple of seasons, but I just couldn't stick with it any longer. It's worth checking out, but just don't be expecting a good action show, because this definitely isn't it.

This show does not give enough to walker who is supposed to be the main character. The female ranger seems to trump him at every turn. This can not hold my attention because the original walker was action pack. This show is boring to say the least.

I have to start off by saying I somehow actually like this show even though it has two things that annoy me more than any other show I can remember. The first is Jared's stutter. It's gotten so bad I thought my tv was glitching. He doesn't have a stutter in real life so I don't get it. It gets worse every season too to the point I have to fast forward through his scenes sometimes and this is coming from a fan of Jared's. He pauses between. Every. Single. Word. Too. Try watching with CC on, it's hilarious. Every word is repeated several times or has huh or ... between words. He's just awful in this. But even worse is Stella Walker. She might be the single worst character on tv. The constant whining and thinking she knows best even though every one of her decisions is terrible. The last time I disliked a character this much was Joffrey Baratheon on Game of Thrones. The actress isn't that bad it's the way she's written. Also, another bad thing about this show is how they made Liam a helpless, needy person. What adult acts the way he does? He's just so needy and acts like weak & afraid child. I follow this show on Reddit too and Jared's stutter and how awful Stella's character is are talked about more than anything else on the show so I'm not alone. Every episode's thread on Reddit talk about how they hate Jared's stutter and how they hope Stella gets killed off. Why didn't the writers fix these things that most of the fan base complained about? They actually went the other way and doubled down bc both the stutter and Stella got worse each season. It's a big reason their ratings went down and the show got canceled. Again, somehow I still watched the show but these two things make it hard to watch.
