Variety has some remake news, and it's potentially welcome (for once): NBC is going to revive the great '70s detective show, "The Rockford Files."
Ah, yes. The dilapidated trailer in Malibu, the tacky blazers, the sublime James Garner, the second-best TV theme song of all time. (First is "Sanford and Son," by the way.) But can we trust the new "Rockford" crew to get it right?
Well, Steve Carell's Carousel Television is involved, which is a good sign that all the comedic elements will come together. Also, "House" creator David Shore is going to run the show. So all we need now is a promise from the new talent not to alter the traditional answering-machine cold open, and we're good.
