Frank Sinatra takes on private vision Rocky Fortune, a “footloose and fancy-free son,” frequently unemployed, who would then undertake a range of odd-jobs that would business lead into adventurous escapades.Rocky, always ready with a wise remark and a tongue-in-cheek approach, is normally a magnet for trouble. There is generally a beautiful woman involved; some good, some bad. His tough guy stays just inside the laws, though we frequently get a glance of a gentle heart under the hard-boiled outdoor.Rocky usually received job assignments from the Gridley Employment Company, usually known as “the agency”. Through the series, he proved helpful as an activity server, museum tour information, cabbie, bodyguard, chauffeur, truck driver, social director for a Catskills vacation resort and a carny. He may possibly also fake enough bass to try out at wedding ceremonies and bar-mitzvahs.The show aired just as Sinatra was in the jogging for an Oscar for his role in ‘From Here to Eternity’, it became a jogging gag that Rocky appeared to work the phrase “from here to eternity” into almost every show.
