How Old is Walker, Texas Ranger? Is He Like, Ranger-Years Old?
Ah, Walker, Texas Ranger. The man, the myth, the roundhouse kick that could fell a redwood. But with all due respect to his impressive sideburns, a question lingers: just how old is this legendary lawman?
Hold on, isn't Walker, Texas Ranger...a show?
Well, bless your heart. Yes, Walker, Texas Ranger was a glorious television program that graced our screens from 1993 to 2001. It chronicled the adventures of Cordell Walker (played by the equally timeless Chuck Norris) and his partner James Trivette (Clarence Gilyard Jr.) as they dispensed justice, Texas-style.
So, how old is the show then?
If we're talking about the show itself, well, it shuffled off this mortal coil (or should we say holster?) in 2001. That means Walker, Texas Ranger the show is a respectable 23 years old.
But what about Cordell Walker himself? Surely he can't be that young...
This is where things get interesting. Cordell Walker never ages, apparently. At least, not on screen. Chuck Norris, the actor who portrayed him, is a whole other story.
Chuck Norris: Defying Time Since the Dawn of Time (Probably)
Here's the thing about Chuck Norris: the laws of physics don't quite apply to him. He could bench press a grizzly bear, knit a sweater out of barbed wire, and stare down a black hole and win. So it comes as no surprise that age is but a suggestion to this martial arts legend. Chuck Norris is currently 80 years old, but let's be honest, that number probably just means he's unlocked a new level of awesome.
The Verdict: Walker, Texas Ranger is eternally youthful in spirit, and Chuck Norris? Well, Chuck Norris defies all definition.
So there you have it. The next time you find yourself pondering the age-old question (pun intended) of Walker, Texas Ranger, remember: it's not about the years, it's about the unwavering sense of justice and the ability to deliver a side kick that would make a sensei weep.
