Find Me If You Can

This is a pretty good early season episode with the show rounding into form, and even though I still prefer the later seasons, there were some decent moments here worth mentioning. Paul Michael Glaser was terrific as the powerful hood Ralph Correll, and the scenes he shared with Rockford were also very solid. I can't say the same for Joan Van Ark's character(Barbara Kelbaker), who basically apologized to Rockford the entire episode, and was fairly boring; in fact, I recall not being overly impressed with another episode Van Ark was in. I thought Rockford should've dumped her after the way she had him chasing his tail for most of the segment, and she was very easy to root against, especially after she says she stole/borrowed $50,000 from Correll for a stupid reason, in my opinion. Some highlights included appearances from Rocky, Dennis, and several shots of the Firebird. Look for a very rare and cool shot which has Rockford taking a stroll on the beach late at night pondering what to do with this Barbara fool. The best reason to catch this episode is probably Glaser's performance, which came slightly before Starsky and Hutch came on the air.
