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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
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.

I still pant over Garner every time I watch The Great Escape. Oh, and David McCallum.
I'm a recent NCIS convert, and I get whiplash every time I see a movie with young!McCallum and think of him as Ducky.

I didn't know until now, but I would too.

A friend sent me this link about Rockford Files casting. As soon as I saw the title I thought of Fillion, but it turned out that totally wasn't why she sent it to me.

Well, Fillion's got a good gig, currently, but it would definitely work.

OK, maybe not 100% unthinkable. But I prefer NF where he is at the moment.
