This is well below the usual Rockford Files standard, mainly due to a weak script. The idea behind the plot is that the police turn a blind eye first to a detailed and credible report about a murder scheme, and secondly to an attempt on the designated victim. It just doesn't wash. Nor does the idea that the suspects would press ahead with their plan when their identities have been blown. Action shows, even as good as Rockford, often hope the visuals and some snappy dialogue will surmount logical shortcomings, and just carry the viewer along.
