Larry Mannetti is also in this episode . It is pretty good . There is a murder
at a private eye banquet.

The episoe showing on 4/18 has been available on video, but I don't if it
still is. I know TNN has annoying messages pop up during their shows, at
least other shows that I've seen.

It's an old episode from 1978, I think. TS plays a goody goody detective.

Rats - I would have taped it. I love that episode.
I watch Rockford Files at 6PM ET, after I get home
from work, but don't tape the 2PM episode.

I hope to catch it next time around.

Regards,
Ross Anderson

Hey Ross,

They didn't show it at 2:00, they'll probably show it at 6:00. It looks like
they are one episode behind. They broadcast Paradise Cove at 2:00.

Thanks, Chet. I was so pleased to see Lance White,
Beamer, Simon Oakland,and Rockford mix it up at
6PM ET on TNN. I laughed out loud many times during
the show, even though I must have seen that episode
6 times previously.

I think that there is a second Rockford episode with
Tom Selleck playing Lance White, but I can't remember
much about it. Lance White is the total opposite of
Rockford. Rockford always loses and winds up paying
for the dinner or the sins of others, while Lance always
wins and is the beneficiary of life's blessings.
Seeing the no-good nephew, Larry, in this Rockford
episode was like seeing Rick in a Magnum episode.

Magnum seems to incorate the some of the characters
of both Jim Rockford and Lance White.

Regards,
Ross Anderson

White on White and Nearly Perfect is Lance's first appearance from the
previous season(5).
