  • The Rockford Files is an American television drama series which was broadcast on the NBC from September 13, 1974 to January 10, 1980. The show stars James Garner as Los Angeles-based private investigator James "Jim" Rockford. The cast included Noah Beery as Rockford's father Rocky, Joe Santos as his friend, LAPD Det. Dennis Becker, and Stuart Margolin as Rockford's former prison buddy "Angel" Martin, who helps Rockford and causes him trouble in equal measures. The Rockford Files was developed by Stephen J. Cannell and Roy Huggins to feature Rockford as an anti-hero private detective. Having served five years in San Quentin after a wrongful conviction, Rockford lives on the beach in a run-down mobile home, which also serves as his office. Although he seems to be perpetually short of money, Rockford drives a late-model gold Pontiac Firebird Esprit, which became one of the show's icons. John Rogers, Chris Downey and Dean Devlin consider The Rockford Files as a major influence on the development of Leverage. John Rogers cites elements of the season five episode "Never Send a Boy King to Do a Man's Job" as contributing major plot components to The Second David Job.
