I went in not knowing anything about the reload, and having grown up with the original, so.. not that high expectations to be honest. Some karate guy with a moustache and a hat about sums the original for me.
But Walker 2021 actually got in under my skin. It isn't, as other reviewers rightly claim, really a crime series. At least not yet, not really. There's an origin story, that isn't hashed out yet, but the crime of the day was kind of "meh" and a side note, with very little investment from the writers. The majority of the plot is balancing work and family, alongside grief, with negligible action from both Jared and Lindsey. No need for any skilled stuntmen any time soon.. There's a lot of room for improvement, but I'll still tune in for the next episode!
