I remember seeing Jimbo on the Johnny Carson show talking about how the studio's said the "Rockford Files" made no money. He started explaining some of there "Accounting Method's," needless to say with democrat accounting method's even a very profitable show could show a lost.
[Johnny] Carson keep asking him how much would he settle for; 5 million, 10 million, stopped at 20 million, and Jimbo just said we'll see in court.
Just wondering what he got out of that lawsuit, if anybody should know?
All I could find was “settled out of court”. And neither side is allowed to disclose what they settled for
Somewhere between 6 and 16 million.
This talks about the suits but also his life.
