"The Warden" has us watching "The Rockford Files" I dunno what she'll want to watch when that is finished - but she'll come up with something old.

Funny you should ask, I just finished watching "Support your local Sheriff " That one shoulda been on the list of stuff to watch yesterday. Great flick. Fine actor, Liberal dipschitt, but he ded, so I can overlook his politics. Besides, there’s a a world of difference between the old-school Liberals of his generation and the current crop of batschitt-crazies.

A couple of years before he passed, the city of Norman renamed a street for him and put up a statue (he lived his early life in and around there). He came back for the ceremony, several of my friends met him and said he seemed to be a very nice man. That could have just been his stage persona of course.
I liked a lot of his movies and TV, if he was lib, well pretty much everyone in show biz is aren't they?

Funny you should ask, I just finished watching "Support your local Sheriff " Good movie. Garner was great in it. He was good in westerns, and I liked Rockford Files. He made a very believable old west tough guy, and hard boiled private detective.

Ya know, he made quite a few western movies and I read several years ago that some of the western movie actors had a quick draw contest. I dont remember all that were in the contest, but IIRC, James Arness, Clint Eastwood, Lee Marvin, Charles Bronson, Lee Van Cleef, Ben Johnson, Richard Boone and several more competed. James Garner won.

Certainly among the top in his profession. Just a few days ago, I watched "Hour Of The Gun", easily Garner's best western and one of his best films. I don't care if he was a Democrat; you sure couldn't see it on screen.

I liked him in “My Fellow Americans” with Jack Lemon. Laughed my azz off when Garner was taking a crap, singing the Macarena.
