Were Cordell and James about to make an unexpected discovery? There are many things that build up the premise for the upcoming episode of Walker Season 2, an American action crime drama television series for The CW, which is a remake of the 1990s television series titled Walker, Texas Ranger.
When watching the series, it’s important to keep an open mind as it’s not like the old Walker Texas Ranger, and Sam Winchester isn’t hunting down phantoms and ghouls, which many thought the show might be aiming for.
Moreover, the characters were very one-dimensional in the 1990s, so this is a refreshing new take on them. It’s a totally different series, with the emphasis on the family and the action taking place in the background. Walker’s debut is solid, albeit there are a few areas where he may improve. A show like this lives or dies on its ability to build believable characters with whom we can empathize.
If you want to prepare ahead of time before watching the upcoming episode, we’ve got all you need to know about the official release date, plot, and cast, which will undoubtedly prepare you to know about the next plotlines. Continue reading to find out more about Walker Season 2 Episode 18.
