What rock did they find Beau Bridges under to be in this show?

NBC is revamping the Rockford Files because they literally have nothing left to lose.

Steve Carell is producing and alongside Beau will be Dermot Mulroney as the "roguish private detective Jim Rockford." Beau will play his father.

What? Was Jay Leno not available?

      What is your problem? I admit, Beau Bridges is not Lady Gaga. Beau Bridges is probably around 60 years old. He won't be confused with one of your beloved hipsters.

      But, he is a working stiff, a nice guy, a good actor and the brother of the incredibly wonderful Jeff Bridges.

      You really have a problem, Perez.

      Beau Bridges is a great actor, I`m happy to hear he`s in this. Perez, you can only hope anyone will be hiring you when you`re that age you arrogant twerp.

      OH, MAN… DOUCHE BAG TV EXECS HAVE NO ORIGINALITY. LEAVE THE CLASSIC JAMES GARNER VEHICLE ALONE. NO ONE WANTS TO SEE THAT SHIT AGAIN. THE "KODAK MOMENT" COMMERCIALS AROSE FROM THAT SERIES. BESIDES, BEAU BRIDGES IS A FUGLY ASS MUTHA FUCKER. NEXT.



    4. 4

      Here we go again. "Hollywood" can't come up with anything original so they decide to butcher a classic TV show.

      OMG Perez. Is there anyone other that that skank CaCa that you like?
      In a few short years when this site is washed up you will be begging for work.
      Guess what… no one will care about your sorry ass you fucking looser!

      Beau is a good actor with comedic timing and can probably stir up a few good laughs as the eccentric Father.

      BUT PLEASE CUT YOUR EYEBROWS BRO !! THEY HAVE NEEDED TRIMMING FOR YEARS !!!!!

      The show might be plausable and fun if written properly — my take !!

      Jay Leno? I don't get it

      Rockford files was one of my favourite shows. Nobody can replace JAMES GARNER, but Beau is a good actor from a great acting family. I look forward to the remake.

      I like Beau but James Gardner will always be Rockford, the reruns have not aged!!

      Hell yes I will be watching him. He is a fantastic actor and should have been nominated many times in the past for his work just like his brother was. The are also a very close knit family. If you don't know anything about an actor you automatically start talking shit about them. If you don't know anything about them just keep your fat trap shut and ask our opinion about them. As you can see a lot of people still love his acting. I want to see a lot more of him.

      Beau Bridges is AWESOME! What are you talking about? He has an incredible on-camera presence. Full of charm. Always fun to watch him do his thing. You're an idiot Perez. Beau Bridges has earned respect as an actor.



    12. 12

      i'm in, and you're wrong.



    13. 13

      Don't hate on Beau! I love him!



    14. 14

      What about Jim Garner playing the father?



    15. 15

      why are you so mean, I think Beau Bridges would make a great Rockford, and I loved that show, SHUT UP



    16. 16

      What's with the hair? Beau and Jeff BOTH need to see a barber.



    17. 17

      Sorry but the bigger is question is what rock did they pull Dermot Mulroney out from under and I like DM but BB has been around forever with over 170 credits to his name, most recently Stargate Atlantis for all SyFy watchers - Beau Bridges doesn't get the respect and recognition he deserves and you aren't helping - show a little respect huh…



    18. 18

      One word to describe this upcoming tv show–BARF!
      I think I will pass on this one!



    19. 19

      WHY OH WHY DOES HOLLYWOOD THINK REVAMPING CLASSICS IS NECESSARY?

      ARE THEY REALLY THAT UNCREATIVE AND DESPERATE FOR GOOD SCRIPTS?

      OH YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT, MOST HAD THEIR HEADS UP THEIR A** AND VOTED FOR OBAMA.

      YES, I SEE. STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES.

      What the hell is wrong with your radar, non actor skills person? Beau Bridges is a very good actor and has a 40 year credibility career to back it. You could use a few of his tricks of the trade, like talent and longevity and grace.

      Beau Bridges is a very good actor. Jay Leno is NOT an actor. Why are you even comparing the two? I don't get it. Once again, your ignorance shows.



    22. 22

      Why doesn't someone write a NEW show????????????????? NBC sucks!
