Toward the end of The Rockford Files I always felt that Bo Hopkins joined the group of semi-regulars with an eye for a television series based on his character of John Cooper. Hopkins played a disbarred attorney who offered his services to James Garner after Gretchen Corbett left the series. He's got an interesting past and among other things he was a biker in his misspent youth.
So when Garner is roughed up by a motorcycle gang and his sister Laurie Jefferson is gang raped by the same gang, Hopkins hauls out the old Harley and goes on the hunt for them.
They're not exactly hard to find and Paul Koslo is the psycho freak leading the wolf pack.
This is one of the few Rockford Files episodes where Garner is not the primary protagonists leading me to think this was a possible pilot for a series based around Hopkins character. Might have made an interesting series at that.
