Very good actor, will be missed. I remember the original Maverick show, I'm guessing about 1957, I was eight; looked forward to watching it every week.
I was tiny when Maverick was on, although I remember it. Rockford Files was one of my favorite shows ever. Gotta love the anti-hero. walrus, thanks for the link. It was more comprehensive than some I've read. Sad to see JG go. RIP Mr. Garner.....
I really liked him in "The Great Escape" and a few other movies as well. Seemed like a character and that he lived a full life. 86- not a bad innings. RIP.
