The Rockford Files: Love Is the Word (1979)
Season 6, Episode 5
9/10
Such a strange episode Rockford sort of in love?
6 October 2015
Rockford reunites with Megan only to find she is engaged. She's still in love with him but also her finance. There is a lot of running around and her fiancé is missing in action during most of the show. Of course Rockford sorts it out and I believe he has sex with Megan at least it's implied. The weird thing about this episode is he really seems to be in love with Megan, this is the first woman I've seen in the whole series in which he seems to be romantically in love.

But Rockford can't commit to marriage, Megan wants kids and Rockford isn't will to have kids, implied but clear IMO. He's also not suitable for marriage to Megan, he'd never move into her place and his trailer would never work for her or really for any woman wanting to have a family.

So the strange thing is, after almost the whole series is over Rockford finally falls in love but it's completely unrealistic and he's not willing to change for this love. It's just a strange thing to see after seeing him run away from love for almost six seasons.
