IMO, the ONLY actor that could play that part is James Garner. And notice how his ‘Maverick’ character was the same smart-ass that was Jim Rockford.

This guy was key in both productions.

Yep, and just heard that Huggins’ wife, 1940s actress Adele Mara passed away about a week ago.

A member of the Communist Party USA until the Nazi-Soviet Non-Aggression Pact of 1939, Huggins appeared before the House Un-American Activities Committee in 1952, where he named 19 former comrades who had already been named before the Committee.

He sounds like one of the few that woke up to the truth before it was too late to save his "soul".
