Wrangling Walker: “The Deserters” 3.13 The third season of Walker is really keeping its stride, which makes me happy. My preference is for a lot of crime drama and a pinch of family issues, which is what we’ve been getting. I’ll skip the recap and go for my reflections, grouping by characters. I like where…
Walker‘s “Best Laid Plans” is another solid episode with lots of crime drama and some interesting family issues. I really like how the end of this season is shaping up! I’ll skip the recap and share my impressions by character group.
Another strong episode! Nice teamwork, good relationship expansion, and confirmation of one of my theories! There was a lot going on!
Another solid episode, with some twists and things that made me say, “hmmm”. I have theories….
“Buffering” was another good Walker episode, with a solid mix of case story and family. Lots of moving parts! We start out with Trey and Cassie at the taco truck. They banter comfortably, and also discuss relationships. Cassie says she and Kevin are doing well. Trey is worried about Captain James’ anger and his own…
After Walker‘s mid-season finale cliffhanger, “Cry Uncle” was a strong follow-up that tied some loose ends, and left us dangling ominously on others! As before, I’ll leave the recap to others and share my impressions. I had very few qualms about this episode, although I do have some unanswered questions and some speculation about things to…
After several tightly-written, crime-focused episodes, we hit the mid-season finale with “Just Desserts”, a messy Thanksgiving family drama. There was a lot to like in this episode, with a focus on connections between people, gratitude, and mending fences. We got a dose of differing traditions, family bonds, and damaging secrets. We also saw what happens…
“Something There That Wasn’t There Before” was another strong Walker episode, with some interesting sibling tension—and resolution. Plus Supernatural fans got an ‘Easy, Tiger’ call back, as well as Winchester half-brother Jake Abel coming on as Kevin and plenty of sulfur. As usual, I’ll skip the recap and go for the things that stood out…
Walker’s episode “Mum’s the Word” caught us up on family drama before we get the next dose of Ranger issues. That made it full of personal connections without a lot of action. As usual, I’ll leave the recap to others and share my impressions. ‘Overlooked little brothers’ seems to be one of the themes in…
After the high intensity of the last couple of Walker episodes, “Wild Horses” was a real shift. It reminded me of how Supernatural used to break up the big season arc with a ‘monster of the week’ story that gave us a breather but still had connections to the main story. As usual, I’ll skip…
Wow—another episode that knocked it out of the park! Season Three is off to a great start. I loved (almost) everything about this one, especially the clear focus on Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), the effects of unresolved trauma on family, and the message that ‘it’s okay not to be okay’ and to ask for help….
Walker‘s second episode of its third season’s made a strong follow-up to the explosive season opener. Overall, I liked it and thought it kept up the tension and pacing with some nice Supernatural call-backs. Once again, I’m going to skip the recap and share what I liked, with the few questionable details that made me…
