re: #8 steve_davis
season 4 of the Rockford Files, Jim is nearly killed by right-wing extremists because he is investigating members who framed him for a murder. And the funny thing is, in 1977, Hollywood rightly thought people with pro-gun bumper stickers on their cars might well be prone to violence.
“The Battle of Canoga Park”. That episode was directed by Ivan Dixon, of Hogan’s Heroes fame.
