RIP. What a great actor. Rockford Files was a favorite when I was a kid.
 
Perhaps one of the most likeable actors on screen and television.

I'll join the group that liked him in Maverick, Rockford Files and movies such as "Support Your Local Sheriff." I might as well also add he was a good choice for those Polaroid commercials too.

RIP
 
Maverick was a really good series – part of a golden age for westerns on TV. Remember Tenderfoot (aka Sugarfoot), Laramie, Rawhide, Cheyenne, The Rifleman, Boots And Saddles… happy days.
 
Used to watch that with my mom when I was a kid. Great actor.

Perhaps one of the most likeable actors on screen and television.

Another childhood Rockford Files fan, here.

RIP James.

I'm another of those who used to watch 'The Rockford Files' with my mom when I was a kid - my mom was a huge fan and loved it.

Agreed: He was a lovely and hugely likeable man, and a talented actor. RIP.
