James Garner's square-jawed private investigator, Jim Rockford, is one of TV's most endearing characters from the 1970's. An ex-con pardoned for an armed robbery he didn't commit, Jim usually finds that the cases he takes on turn out to be much more serious than he first thought.

This season starts off with a classic Rockford episode 'Beamer's Last Case' and a literal case of identity theft and, you've guessed it... it's Jim's ID that's been stolen! Jim is set up again in 'The Battle of Canoga Park' when he becomes a prime murder suspect.

Angel gets in trouble again when a he is the only witness to a murder in 'Hotel of Fear' and Jim poses as 'Jimmy Joe Meeker' again in 'Forced Retirement'.

Everything seems to happen to Rockford and the bizarrely titled episode 'Dwarf in a Helium Hat' sees Jim in trouble again just because of a wrong phone number. The final two episodes in the season are a two part story when Jim teams up with young PI Ritchie Brockleman.

This is another great season from THE ROCKFORD FILES one of televisions great detective shows.
