If there was ever a character that really undid Jim Rockford, it was Megan. This is an excellent installment in their complex relationship. It is anything but cut and dry. Megan is a mess and Rockford is a mess when she's around. But she is still a genuine heroine even given her all too understandable flaws.
I appreciate the well played complexities of her and her family's lives, the tie back to the tragedy that redefined her life and the very complex dynamics that resulted from that accident.
It is a sad and sobering story about good people that bad things have happened to and the human emotions that we are all subject to, whether we like it or not. We see an unconditional love side of Jim, and of Megan for her cousin, and the sacrifices people make for others, the yo-yoing between selfishness and selflessness we all go through.
This show really does some excellent character development, it doesn't have too much of the forced and slapstick relationship with Angel that was a little too prevalent in the movies, and it shows the hopeless lovesick puppy side of Jim Rockford. It really forced me to think about how I might handle such difficulties in life and be so grateful I haven't had to (knock on wood.)
Not perfect and there are some timing issues and slow moments, and Angel seems shoehorned in, but overall definitely worth a watch!
