Featured review
Interesting and intense later episode
This is a busy episode with a lively plot. The actual story seems a bit fuzzy around the edges,but things keep moving along. Mary Frann plays a great part and adds a lot to the episode as a used-car queen and a prize fight promoter. The other characters are the boxer's 'math challenged' coach/fight promoter,the young boxer himself,(and his family) and the usual assortment of heavies and creeps running through the episode. All of the actors do solid work in this episode. Our favorite detective does his typical great work in this episode,(most of it the hard way),a little bit of cool driving,and as usual nothing seems to come easy to Jim Rockford. The episode rollicks along,with twists and turns,and it isn't clear what will happen until the very end! All in all it is a very entertaining episode that is worth seeing. 85/100.
