    Hell, why not Garner playing Rockford now? I'd love to see Jimbo, crankier than ever and worried he is turning into his father, talking down two thugs a quarter of his age, and then whacking 'em with his walker or something, shuffling rapidly out to his car parked in the handicapped spot.

    If anyone could do an old dick with style and humour, it would be the original Rockford crew.

    Juanita, where are you?
