   He's pretty much the actor least likely to remind one of James Garner I   
   can think of.   
      
   When Josh Holloway was discussed a number of years ago, I didn't think   
   he was a bad choice but I felt sorry for him as being compared to Garner   
   would have hurt his career. Really just should have created an original   
   character for him to play.   
      
   No one would dream of comparing Boreanaz to Garner.

   Brilliant! It's not like Los Angeles locations weren't integral to the   
   show. What's next, he'll drive a Yugo? No sublime car chases?
