Just discovered this.  I watched all these shows as a kid, and it's been fun re-watching them.  

One thing I've noticed:  every time Rockford gets on a plane, it's a 747.   LAX-SFO?  747.  LAX-SEA?  747.  LAX-JFK?  747.

I find it hard to believe that a show today would spend over a minute with the theme song. Back then, the theme song was an countdown to get out of the bathroom or kitchen because the show starts soon. Nowadays, you are most likely watching from your DVR anyway.

We need to start a thread with the best theme songs & opening, regardless if the show was good or not. For the the 80s, Hardcastle & McCormick was one of my opening faves. Airwolf was top notch too.

I love the pilot episode where he sucker punched famous roid muscle freak William Smith with a roll of quarters in his fist after calling him a fag (don't hate me it was the 1970's) in the men's room.

Youtube TV started recording this for me. It's fucking perfect. I love old LA. I live the old cars. I love the j turns. I love the parking lot in Malibu. The voice-mail to start every episode. Every car chase in the hills behind Santa barbara. It's fucking great.

Rockford is the preferred nomenclature.

watching one now.  Jim is alone, in bed with a book, in fucking pajamas like Ozzie Nelson. 

I haven't worn pajamas since I was 8, and haven't worn anything at all since I was 16 or so, and I'm not nearly as cool as Rockford. 

Fucking PJs like a little kid on Christmas morning.   Fuck that .

Every single time Rockford gets on a plane, we see footage of a 747 landing.  LAX-LAS or LAX-SFO?  747.

I was thinking the same thing. I think he was on 2 episodes as a PI. And they were hilarious, both 2 of my favorites.

I think it's so funny. He can hop a puddle jumper from Burbank to psp. 747.

It's like when you're watching Kate and Allie and Kelsey Grammer or Ben Stiller or William H. Macy pop up.

Jim famously drives the Firebird (853 OKG), but, in every car chase, the guy chasing him is driving a very large, heavy, Detroit 4 door.  At minimum an LTD, but often a Caddy or a Continental.

Hahaha.    Memory is the 2nd thing to go, I suppose.

Angel is such a POS. Love him. Always and angle.

And that pic in the intro with Rockford on the dock and rocky smiling behind him just out of focus looks like a legit father son pic.

............... 

Found it.

These are on Prime now.  I just watched the first 2-parter episode which apparently aired as a tv movie 6 months before the regular episodes started airing. 

In addition to the roll of quarters, he also poured the hand soap all over the floor so that guy would slip after coming through the door.  Lulz.

LW was a smokeshow.  May have to watch some Bionic Woman now, which is also on Prime.  Is that weird when these aired before I was born?
