The Theme Song
At the beginning of every show, the theme song reveals the basic nature of the show. The song, titled "The Eyes of The Ranger" was written by songwriter Tirk Wilder and sung by Chuck Norris, though sung in one episode by guest star Lila McCann. The lyrics are as follows:
"In the Eyes of the Ranger, the unsuspecting stranger,
had better know the truth of wrong from right.
'Cause the eyes of the Ranger are upon you, any wrong you do he's gonna see.
When you're in Texas, look behind you, 'cause thats where the Ranger's gonna be."
Important Information you need to know about "walker, texas ranger"
* Alex Cahill, Cordell Walker's girlfriend, was often kidnapped.
* In one episode, a one-million dollar bounty was placed on Cordell Walker's head.
* After Walker could not stop a middle-school boy from committing suicide, he single-handedly drove gang violence out of said boy's school and pressured the school's administration to make sweeping reforms, including a school uniform policy.
* In one episode, Ranger Walker was murdered by weapon smugglers after being chased by them in a sting operation gone bad for an entire episode, only for it to be revealed that the whole episode was a dream.
* Walker engages in undercover operations in various episodes. Walker always goes to get evidence to convict the actual leader of the antagonists so there is no chance for that their illegal activities could start up again elsewhere.
* Walker had a crossover episode with the series Martial Law. In part 1 (on Martial Law), Walker goes to LA and teams up with Sammo Law (played by Sammo Hung) and his Major Crimes unit to take down a hate crime leader named Cliff Eagleton. In Part 2 (on Walker), after the Eagleton Crew frees their leader from custody after Walker brings him back to Texas, Sammo Law comes to Texas to assist the rangers in bringing Eagleton down.
* Every major character of Walker has been put in the hospital, including Walker himself.
* The climactic Walker storyline, containing 4 parts, involves Walker heading a taskforce to bring down an infamous criminal known as the Chairman, who has been aiding crime lords through various activities such as exposing and killing undercover federal agents and tracking down and killing witnesses in the witness protection program. The taskforce is composed of Walker, Trivette, Sydney, and Gage along with Vincent Rosetti, a New York cop (temporarily assigned as Trivette's partner), and Buzz Lee, a computer hacker.
* Only two Walker antagonists, Victor La Rue and Caleb Hooks, would come back to get revenge on Walker in later episodes.
* Occasionally when the antagonists learn that the law is on them, they try to leave town or close down their illegal operations for awhile before they are discovered.
* Walker over numerous occasions has used the same line "Yeah I Know" when he agrees with someones point or suspicion.
* In various episodes the plot centers around Hayes Cooper a legendary Texas Ranger from the Old West, who is also played by Chuck Norris in a duel role. The other major actors of Walker have also done duel roles as characters in these Hayes Cooper stories, although some of the actors were only able to appear in them just once.

whoa (november edition)
some funny "mr t facts" i got from the internet:
Mr. T is allergic to doorknobs. That's why he can only kick through doors.
Despite popular belief, if there is a fool in the woods, and nobody is
around to hear his jibba jabba, Mr. T is still able to pity him.
Mr. T's hair style is actually a complex array of antennas that can
triangulate the exact location of any fool in the universe. His gold
chains can then transmit pity to those coordinates.
Mr. T made his van go twice the speed of light because he wanted to prove
that quantum physics was a bunch of jibba jabba.
Mr. T's GMC van does not travel on solid surfaces, but instead
mathematical planes. In other words, it can go wherever the hell Mr. T
wants.
Mr. T once got into a fight with a ninja. He killed the ninja, but only
after the ninja had cut off two of his fingers. Those fingers grew up to
be Gary Coleman and Webster.
Mr. T was once clocked at 100 fps. That's 100 fools pitied a second.
Mr. T was fired from the Psychic Friends Network for always predicting
pain.
If at the exact same moment, the same person was pitied by Mr. T and
roundhouse kicked by Chuck Norris, the universe would implode.
