‘The Rockford Files’ Reboot Gets NBC Pilot Order

I’ve always been a huge fan of The Rockford Files, and it’s incredible to think it was on NBC for six seasons, from 1974 to 1980! Created by Roy Huggins and Stephen J. Cannell, and starring the amazing James Garner, the show followed Jim Rockford after he was wrongly convicted and spent five years in San Quentin. Once he was pardoned, he started a new life as a private investigator, working right out of his trailer in Malibu. I’m really excited about this new take on the story, where Rockford trying to rebuild his life after prison puts him right in the middle of trouble with both the police and the criminal underworld in Los Angeles.
