I was watching Walker: Texas Ranger this morning, before I went to breakfast. It's not something I normally watch, but Walker kind of reminds me of the Texas version of MacGuyver...if MacGuyver used guns that is. Also, it's worth it to crank out a few MST style bowflex jabs at the famed karate champion.
Anyway, the episode was actually pretty decent. But in the end the characters were talking about a movie that was being made based on the events of the episode they had experienced. So they're all guessing which actors are gonna play themselves.
And who do you think Trebeck picks out to play Walker? Chuck Norris. What are the odds right?
Then Chuck Norris-excuse me-Walker goes on about how "Chuck Norris" has never won any awards, so why should he play the part of "Walker".
Is this his idea of being funny?
Now when Kevin Smith did it with Ben Affleck in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, that was funny as hell because it was essentially a joke between two good friends. And most of the popularity of Kevin Smith movies derives from inside jokes.
When Norris does it it sounds like an off handed whine to the viewers to vote him in for an emmy. I think he should just shut the hell up and be thankful he has any screen time at all after dropping cinematic bombs like Sidekicks.
