  3. DVD review: 'Maverick,' the first season

    When “Maverick” debuted in 1957, it immediately made James Garner a star.

(Roger Moore joined in as cousin Beau during the last two seasons.) For most of its five-year run, it was a perfect balance of comedy and Western action; and you can see the roots of Jim Rockford in Garner's terrifically winning performances.

    TIMES STAFF WRITER
