Grit Lands Rights To ‘Walker, Texas Ranger’

Male-targeted diginet Grit has licensed the broadcast television rights to all eight seasons and 203 episodes of Walker, Texas Ranger starring Chuck Norris in a multi-year agreement with Sony Pictures Television.

Grit will debut Walker, Texas Ranger in July and will air episodes back-to-back Monday through Friday nights between 8 and 10 p.m. ET.

“Walker, Texas Ranger is an iconic series and Chuck Norris, in many ways, is Grit personified,” said Jonathan Katz, president-CEO of Katz Broadcasting, which owns and operates Grit.  “The show continues to be enormously popular and has now found the perfect home.”
