Jimmy Joe Meeker


Would you like liked to have seen a couple more Jimmy Joe Meeker episodes with his cast of characters involved in some kind of bait and switch or reverse scam deal? I loved this character and Jimmy played him superbly. Thoughts?

reply

Absolutely.
One curious thing was that on "Forced Retirement" (one of Beth's final episodes) Beth seemed unfamiliar with Rockford's "Meeker" alias. You'd think he would've mentioned it to her at some point, as his scam operation on "The Farnsworth Strategem" was a major deal.

Most attorneys (especially the really ethical ones) usually don't want to know when their clients are doing something illegal. Knowing Jim, he, more than likely, would want to spare Beth getting jammed up in one of "Jimmy Joe"'s schemes.



Annoying the world since 1960!

True, but she was more than just an attorney to Jim.

But she was one nevertheless.
