Ronn Owens of KGO AM San Francisco (www.kgoradio.com) and Ed Robertson of TV Confidential (www.tvconfidential.net) introduce The Rockford Files on KOFY TV Retro Night (www.kofytv.com). In this segment Ronn and Ed discuss how the origins of the Rockford character are directly tied to Bret Maverick, the reluctant hero created by Roy Huggins for Maverick, the iconic TV Western that originally made James Garner a star in 1957. Roy Huggins not only produced and co-created The Rockford Files (among other groundbreaking series), but was one of the most influential independent producers in the history of network television. Our thanks to KOFY for use of this segment.
