‘The Match Game’ Follies…Gene Attacks The Camera In this clip, Gene decides to direct the show “manually” as he tries to persuade the cameraman to give Charles Nelson Reilly a bit more time to prepare his answer “costume”. Enjoy and share! – Bobby Ellerbee Source
“Rockford Files” was one of my favorites as a kid. I rediscovered the show on MeTV within the last year, and still enjoy it. It has some dated references, but mostly holds up very well.
RIP Mr. Garner
A great loss.
He came to the ‘rescue’ after John Ritter died suddenly on his sitcom. Also, I remember him for the Polaroid SX-70 TV commercials.
“Support your local sheriff” and “Support your local gunfighter” are classics…
RIP JIM!
Loved the Rockford Files and Maverick. His characters always had a fun element. Thinking of his family. A fond farewell Thanks for the entertainment.
Oh, how sad! I loved his television and movies! RIP James Garner!
…one of my favorite actors ! ..i have a neat photo to share with the group of James and will post later .. R.I.P. Jim ! !
Sad to know.
RIP
A life certainly well lived…
One of my all time favorite actors. A real class act.
A very good actor
Great Escape
Those Polaroid commercials with Mariette Hartley… Their chemistry was so great everyone thought they were married.
Loved this guy and his wonderful movies.
The online obit made no mention of his wonderful movie pairings with Doris Day. Now he and Rock Hudson, her two best comedy co-stars, are gone. I’m sure she must be heartbroken.
Always loved this guy. The last of the greats. He played a Canadian airman in “The Great Escape.”
R.I.P Mr. Garner 🙁
RIP James Garner:(
Theme song never left my mind.
If you have any more pictures like this of the “western street on a soundstage”, please post them. Yes, James Garner will be missed but luckily we have lots of his TV work and movies on DVD to keep his memory alive.
Big fan.
Maverick has been playing on the Western Channel recently. One of the Greats for sure.
