👉 Drop a comment: What’s YOUR favorite Walker, Texas Ranger moment?
Was it the roundhouse kicks? The theme song? The life lessons? Or that one time Walker healed a kid’s soul with a stare?

That episode with Gary Busey is one of my most favorites. I love when Trent is brought into the courtroom at the end. That guy who gave us Trent couldn't be any more of a babe. :) :) :)

God bless you and him and Gary always!!!
