We didn't have a TV set back in the 1950's when I was very young and my family lived in Bartlesville, Okla.,  so I missed the "Maverick" series. But, I was a huge "Rockford" fan when that show ran in the 1970's.

He was also awesome in "Victor/Victoria".  Debbie (my now deceased wife) thoroughly adored "The Notebook".

From everything I've heard, Garner was just a great guy.  A good Okie has gone to the Great Prairie in the Sky.

I enjoyed the original Maverick TV show and Rockford files, and lots more. RIP

RIP.  I'd have a Schlitz if I could find one.

An Okie who loaded up the truck and moved to Californy quite a while back

But Schlitz is the beer to have when you're having more than one. Best tag line ever.

Say no more, sir!

Uh, Schaefer, is the, one beer to have, when you're having more than one.

Schlitz was known as "The beer that made Milwaukee famous" and was advertised with the slogan "When you're out of Schlitz, you're out of beer".

My beer is Rheingold, the dry beer.

Ahh yes. I took the line to heart. My memory isn't so good.

For decades, PBR has been the "studio beer" in my world....probably because it was On Sale!  Next trip, I'll get some Schlitz just to see if it is drinkable....

Think of Rheingold whenever you buy beer

Schlitz is cheaper than PBR, and much better IMO.  Much cleaner finish.

For a minute there I thought you wrote "Rheinlander"  a Seattle beer, brewed by, and even cheaper than Rainier. which I think had Rhein spelled wrong too: Rhinelander.

My cousin actually had a 45 of the Rockford Files theme.

Schlitz went to hell in the 1970s. Pabst now owns the Schlitz name. Pabst doesn't actually brew beer any more; Schlitz is brewed by MillerCoors in NC. Nobody has the 1960s Schlitz formula; the present "Classic 1960s formula" Schlitz is reconstruction.

My beer is Rheingold, the dry beer.
Think of Rheingold whenever you buy beer
It's not bitter, not sweet
It's the extra-dry treat
Won't you try extra-dry Rheingold beer?

Schaefer, is the, one beer to have,
When you're having more than one.
The most refreshing flavor, in this man's world
For people who are having fun
Schaefer, is the, one beer to have,
When you're having more than one.

Wow..."Is Mommy drunk?"  lol

As for that last pic, we always called it Church Key!
