Because James Garner's original production company, Cherokee Productions ceased operations after1980, due to Garner's lawsuit with Universal Studios, Garner formed a new production company to produce the 1990's Rockford movies. The name of the new production company was MGB Productions. MGB was a British-made sports coupé, manufactured by MG, fitting in with Mr Garners love of automobile, and also fit in nicely with the names the initials stand for; "M" for Meta Rosenberg, "G" for James Garner,, and "B" for Juanita Bartlett. Meta Rosenberg was his long-time agent/producer, who also directed a few episodes of the original series. Juanita Bartlett was also a long time writer, producer during production of The Rockford Files (1974), who started writing for Garner shows all the way back during Nichols (1971).
Last credit for James Garner's stand-in, assistant, bit part actor, and friend, Luis Delgado. Delgado died 24 March, 1997; 6 months 6 days after this film's premiere (18 September, 1996).
The sixth of eight "Rockford Files" reunion TV movies.
Even though Pete Carpenter, who co-composed themes and many episode scores for The Rockford Files (1974) and other TV series with Mike Post, passed away in 1987, he is still credited with Post on this and the rest of the Rockford Files TV movies.

"Evelyn 'Angel' Martin: Boy, you got some brass p-pitts makin' a friend work off a promissory note. [pressure washing Jim's place] Jim Rockford: You think I wouldn't rather have a qualified painter? Evelyn 'Angel' Martin: I had to have some periodontal work done, okay? Some I happen to be one of the eighteen million people unemployed right now, without a safety net. What am I supposed to do? Let the teeth rot? Jim Rockford: You don't have a safety net because you haven't worked for Wrigley Brothers or any other kind of gainful employment for over ten years. Evelyn 'Angel' Martin: With my heart murmur?"
"Jim Rockford: There's no shortage of fools at Harvard. Especially Harvard."
