DESCRIPTION:
Stephen J. Cannell wrote a good episode here with The Rockford Files' Season 4 "The House on Willis Avenue." Secret surveillance was what Rockford and Richie Brockelman uncovered in this episode and it is very apropos to what is going on at this moment in time in the U.S.A.

In the month of June 2013 when I posted this video, a whistleblower told the world that the U.S. National Security Agency had been secretly spying on millions of Americans, through phone and internet records. The U.S. government was quite upset about this revelation; however, anyone who watched this Rockford Files episode in 1978 was already well aware of these shenanigans.

To quote from the episode:

MacGregor: "To my knowledge none of this is illegal."

Rockford: "Well it sure as hell oughta be."
