The gist I got from the OG* was that Rockford's ass was grass from jump, 
and it only remained to be seen when his enemies would put him into a 
near-death sitch in some hospital. Maybe David B's Rockford will be a 
little more cunning, and outfox the opposition in more exciting, and more 
importantly, late-2020s contemporary ways (what UTV wanted to do with the 
Magnum revival, maybe?) No update on financing from FilmLA, apparently.

*Granted, I was a teen at the time, and couldn't completely relate not only 
to these types of dramas, but frankly anything outside of live sports

Kevin M, to moi, Feb 22nd:

Los Angeles was as much of a character in the original series as James 
Garner.

If they want to produce a detective series filmed in Atlanta starring 
Boreanaz, go for it. Give him a gold Trans Am if they absolutely must. But 
they can't call it The Rockford Files because it isn't.
