More like WOKER instead of Walker
Had to make that joke because this show definitely appeals more to the SJW crowd than the original show.
shareI was affraid of that since a CW show.I was slightly interested but not sure if i'll bother with it now.
shareIt wasn’t as “woke” as I expected it could have been but still definitely not the over-the-top fun escapism of the original Walker series. Too focused on family drama and trying to weaken Walker as a character (ie making him have a drinking problem, not being there for his kids, look goofy/dumb compared to his female partner).
shareThat just makes him seem more like a human being, which is better than him being some cheesy superman protagonist.
shareI dont know. Every show is different. If you watch Walker Texas Ranger you basically want that kind of "superhero witout powers" badass character,because that's what you expect from that kind of show. If you want a emo crybaby character you watch other kind of shows,and that's fine too! There are different kind of characters for different kinds of shows.
shareyour traditional
"superhero witout powers badass character" always has other facets so as not to be a completey two dimensional cardboard cutout - the good ones anyway
Martin Riggs, first example to come to mind
usually loners , often drinking problem - thats what comes with super badass ness
Longmire - similar country lawman to this , has his own issues.
I think that when you do a remake of Walker Texas Ranger it would be great to dont do it too differently. But it probably shouldnt have been done at all.
shareSo you threw a tantrum before you got to see it? Typical.
