Kurzbeschreibung
Jim Rockford hat das Leben übel mitgespielt: Fünf Jahre saß er zu Unrecht im Gefängnis von San Quentin. Jetzt, nach seiner Entlassung, wohnt er in einem Wohnwagen am Strand von Malibu und würde am liebsten nur seiner Leidenschaft, dem Angeln, nachgehen. Doch um seinen Lebensunterhalt zu verdienen, arbeitet die geborene Spürnase als Privatdetektiv. Dabei nimmt Rockford auch die hoffnungslosesten Fälle an, die ihn immer wieder in haarsträubende Situationen bringen. Doch wenn ihn das Knastleben eines gelehrt hat, dann ist es zu überleben...
