NICHOLS: THE COMPLETE SERIES (1971-72) James Garner stars as Nichols, an Army lifer who cashes out after he observes the advent of the machine gun at the dawn of 20th Century, and then swears off gunplay. When he returns to his old town, its unofficial mayor, the hardscrabble and semi-larcenous ³Ma² Ketcham (Neva Patterson), quickly drafts him and his motorcycle to become sheriff. Instead of his guns, Nichols tries to lead the town by his wits, charm and absolute aversion to violence in a town still clinging to the ways of the Wild West. Often cited as a favorite among the TV classics Garner worked on, Nichols is a true TV rarity, seldom seen in its time and highly praised today. And now you can see it like never before - in 1080p HD!
