The Rockford Files: Roundabout (1975)
1975 Vegas
This episode contains several good shots of 1975 Las Vegas. It has several driving and chase scene shots of old downtown Vegas including the famous 4 corners. This is before Vegas closed off the streets downtown and added the current light show overhead. We are also privy to several good shots of the existing hotels on the 1975 "Strip". Many of the hotels shown on the strip no longer exist and have been replaced by newer venues.
The episode closes with foot chase scene shots of the interior of Hoover Dam, from top to bottom. The long and tiring chase appears to not have a lot of "doubles" work, but shows a lot of running by James Garner, bad knee and all.
Classic Rockford.
