Jim Rockford is an ex-con and private detective. He was falsely convicted of a crime he didn't commit, but that doesn't stop him from using his ex-con buddies to help him solve crimes. Nothing comes easy for Rockford, but he works hard and usually gets shot at or beat up at least once per episode.

You know how the cliché goes: even the worst episode of "The Rockford Files" is still better than a lot of the crap on TV, and even the weakest season of the series is still something that fans of the show are going to want to own. Go to Full Review Stuart Galbraith DVDTalk.com 04/15/2020
