Rockford (James Garner) is a private investigator who lives and works from his beach trailer in LA. A likeable ex-con Rockford often skirts on the edges of the law to ensure that he gets his $200 a day (plus expenses) to solve all kinds of mysteries/crimes from fraud and kidnappings to suspicious deaths and robberies, he has a quarter page advertisement in the paper and the show often starts with an answer machine message that usually has nothing to do with the show that is about to start, and he drives a gold Pontiac Firebird.

The weight is quite light so you neednt worry about the tv stand it is going to be placed on, the installation is also very quick and easy to understand. It comes in multi languages, quick channel connection search probably around 4 mins,
I would recommend this for the price i bought it. ...
