We'll Miss You, Jim Rockford

Last week, the incomparable actor James Garner passed away. He was known for a variety of roles on the big screen as well as the small, like THE GREAT ESCAPE and MAVERICK. But he might have been most well-known for THE ROCKFORD FILES, which ran for six seasons from 1974-1980. In Jim's memory, here are the first two pages from our Jan. 30, 1974 draft of the show's pilot - teleplay by Stephen J. Cannell and story by John Thomas James.
