Until Conan has a Jack Bauer lever to go with his Walker, Texas Ranger lever, I’m gonna have to go with Walker. Because, thanks to that lever, I have actually managed to see more of Walker, Texas Ranger than I have 24 (though we’re talking about like 2 minutes total against none at all.)

Walker, Texas Ranger. It’s not even close.

Are you kidding? Bauer would wipe the floor with Walker, Bourne, and Bond all at once. The only fictional action heroes Bauer might have trouble with are Batman and John McClane.

Yeah, Norris might have some real life skills, but Bauer is just a god. I don’t know if any of you saw the opening episode of last season but… he kills an armed guard, while he (bauer) is tied to a chair, by _biting his jugular out_  
Walker can’t touch that.

Jack Bauer has the _ **Jack Bauer Slide of Death** _ ™. Does Walker have anything close to that?
