Much like his trusty Pontiac Firebird, The Rockford Files was a particularly well-oiled machine by the third year. Everything was clicking into place, from the writing to the acting (writer/producer David Chase went on to create The Sopranos). Despite a terrific supporting cast, James Garner was always the main draw, and he received an Emmy for the series during year three (1976-1977). Considering that the show was carefully pitched between drama and comedy, it was well deserved as Garner excelled at both. Notable episodes include "Feeding Frenzy," in which Rockford returns stolen loot for a client; "Drought at Indian Head River," in which informant Angel (Stuart Margolin) reinvents himself as a real estate developer; and "Rattler's Class of '63," in which Angel ties the knot. Among the guest stars are such hip cats as Blazing Saddles's Cleavon Little ("Sticks and Stones May Break Your Bones...") and Cool Hand Luke's Strother Martin ("The Trees, the Bees, and T.T. Flowers"). Ned Beatty also drops by as a buddy from Korea ("Return to the 38th Parallel"), while R&B legend Isaac Hayes returns as prison pal Gandy Fitch ("Just Another Polish Wedding").

As usual, there are plenty of good lines, like Robert Loggia's "I expect him to tell me the truth. If he doesn't, he's gonna end up in the flower business--as a soil additive" ("Drought at Indian Head River") and Garner's "Stop batting your eyes like that or you're gonna get a muscle spasm" ("Return to the 38th Parallel"). The best part about season three is simply that it adds depth to Rockford's relationships with the four people most important to him: Angel, dad Rocky (Noah Beery Jr.), detective Becker (Joe Santos), and attorney Beth (Gretchen Corbett). The only extra feature is "Quickie Nirvana," an episode from the fourth season. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Customer Reviews of The Rockford Files - Season Three

The Good News Continues...
If you're a Rockford fan, you will buy this set, no questions asked, and you probably don't need reviewers to tell you about it. There's no question about the appeal of this ageless, long-running series. But arguably even more important than the quality of the show is the quality of the DVDs. The Season Three release, like Season Two, contains single-sided disks--the dreaded Universal double-sided disks are gone, and with them, hopefully, the freezing and skipping problems that so many people reported with the Season One set. Here's hoping Universal has learned a lesson from the shoddy Rockford Season One and "Kolchak: The Night Stalker" releases and will give us nothing but high-quality, reliable DVDs in the future.

TV's best gets better
The third season was the season where the show really took off, awards-wise and themse wise. As someone what they remember about Rockford, and it'll be the scams and Jim's fights for lost causes. Those elements were in the first two seasons, but in season three they really "click". <

>Watching the episodes on DVD now, it's interesting to see how many actors were used over and over again, but in different roles each time. Almost like an acting troop where the same people do all the parts--but not quite! <

>Can't wait to get season 4!

Rancho Angelo!
What more can be said about James Garner as James Rockford that hasn't been said? How one actor can be suave and intimidating all within the same breath is breathtaking. He just had it. The Rockford Files like all the greats are just a culmination of all the right actors clocking in at Universal at all the right times. Call it one part luck / one part science. And I LOVE it when I see for any various episode "Special Guest star Gretchen Corbett" because that means my heart will be skipping a beat when 'Beth' Davenport makes an appearance. Joe Santos was simply perfect for the disgruntled "Becker" and of course Noah Beery Jr. as Joseph "Rocky" Rockford lent the personal touch. <

>The packaging and artwork are once again BEAUTIFUL! One sided non-freezing discs (unlike the A TEAM!) are always a bonus, put that together with a solid middle of the road price tag and you have a purchase that shouldn't be missed by anyone that has any interest in; the 70's, humor, car chases, love interests, clever writing, solid chemistry, or sarcasm. <
