Although he rocked it as Rockford, he'll always be a Maverick to me. He was a riverboat-riding Robin Hood, and as much as Robert Conrad's James West, James Garner's Bret Maverick was the James Bond of cowboys (with effortless cool, more gambling and less espionage)! In the Maverick family pantheon, Bret was the wittiest and slickest of the two brothers and had great "game" with the ladies. As a role model when I was a kid, I always preferred him to Jack Kelly's grittier Bart, not to mention (in a very cool Bond connection) Roger Moore's foppish Maverick cousin Beau. And young women know him as Noah who stood by Gena Rowlands' Allie to the very end in "The Notebook." RIP Mr. Garner.
