NBC has set a premiere date for a reboot of The Rockford Files. The new version of the 1970s series will air on Jan. 7, 2027. The network plans to broadcast a special preview of the show on Jan. 2, 2027. This preview will immediately follow the network's telecast of the NFL.
David Boreanaz, known for his role in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, stars in the new Rockford Files series. The show follows a private investigator who solves cases in Los Angeles. The reboot aims to update the classic procedural format for a modern audience while retaining the core premise of the original.
