I've never actually watched all of Cutting Edge. But still I hear that refrain on reading his name.

I'm not sure where the love comes from. I had it before Strange Luck, I swear. It's eternal.

On the procedural tip, he's one of those guys who's appeared on all three CSIs. I only remember his last appearance, which was random and unsatisfying, on CSI: NY.

Strange Luck! That's it - the show I always call "that show about the guy with the camera, what's-his-name".

Jim Rockford is kinda unthinkable without Garner. I just can't get past that.

I've always liked Dermot Mulroney, but I have to agree with this. I can't think of anyone in the generations of actors they'd be looking to cast that has the same sort of charisma as Garner.

However, hearing this news has earwormed me with the Rockford Files theme song, so at least there's a silver lining.

I've loved D.B. since Memphis Belle.

It's really hard to come up with a mostly-TV actor who has had more charisma than James Garner.

Matt, so glad it's not just me, although I am an unabashed Rockford geek, so there's that.There is sometimes a fine line between fannish passion and the Nervous Hospital. Garner sold so many Firebirds that Pontiac gave him an award...let's see Mulroney do that. And they'll never find another Rocky again, either...that guy was awesome. ETA: Kathy, I think that would be fairly unpossible. Because it's not everyone who will make you think, across decades, "If I had a time machine, I'd hit that."

I would watch a Rockford Files with Jeffrey Dean Morgan in it.

(Then again, I would watch a Japanese energy drink commercial with Jeffrey Dean Morgan in it, but I think the point stands.)

I think I became a Nick Hornby fan when he had Will from About A Boy ponder that anyone needed anything more to be happy than a new leather jacket, a spliff, and a "Rockford" repeat.ETA: I don't know who Morgan is.

I'd watch a Rockford Files with Nathan Fillion in it.

Jeffrey Dean Morgan was Denny in Grey's Anatomy, but don't hold that against him. He was also John Winchester (elder version) in Supernatural. I haven't seen his light touch stuff, really.

Especially if Hardison made it.

Also? (And I keep meaning to bring this up everytime we mention Garner). I have a friend named James Garner also from Norman, who was also not born James Garner but acquired it through adoption, and James Garner spoke at my friend James Garner's graduation from Oklahoma in Norman.
