Private Eyes:
One of the Fifty Things
TV Guide's Matt Roush Loves About TV.
In the December 14, 2002 issue of TV Guide,
critic Matt Roush (The Roush Review) listed "Fifty Things
I Love About TV." Among such notable (or sometimes quirky)
choices such as Everybody Loves Raymond," Turner Classic
Movies and 1973's CBS Saturday Evening Lineup, lay this entry
(at number 41, and illustrated by a nifty shot of James Garner
as perennial fave Jim Rockford in his trusty Firebird, looking
as pained as ever):
41. PRIVATE EYES
- "From the suave Peter Gunn to this year's quirky model,
the neurotic Monk, who doesn't love following in a gumshoe's
footprints? Macho Mannix, wry rockford, carefreee Magnum: Some
use their fists, others their wits. As long as the case gets
closed, we're cool with it."
