Lately I have been watching old episodes of the Rockford Files. While watching Part one of a season 1 episode titled "The Case is Closed" I could swear I saw Sigourney Weaver. A woman brought Rockford to a tennis club telling someone they spoke with that he was a friend. From the first minute I saw this woman, I said to myself "that is Sigourney Weaver". Is there anyone else out there who agrees with me? So far, I have not been able to substantiate this.
