This Case Is Closed - S1-E7

Visible crew/equipment: The mysterious person who was chasing Rockford apparently loses him in the parking lot. As he drives away, on the sidewalk there's filming equipment by the entrance of the lot, and it cuts to an angle that is exactly what they were filming. (00:06:50)

Counter Gambit - S1-E17

Visible crew/equipment: When Rocky enters the trailer while Rockford is still monkeying around with the tape recorder, Rocky tells him that he got some staples. At that moment watch the space between Rockford's arm and the desk at the bottom of the screen, where we can see the boom mic moving around beside Rockford. (00:24:00)

Charlie Harris at Large - S1-E20

Visible crew/equipment: After Rockford's lunch with Bannister at the club, Rockford goes to find Charlie at the house and instead he is surprised by Sgt. Garvey's presence. When Garvey tells Rockford that Charlie's gone, in the next shot facing Rockford (and also a following shot) the boom mic is moving around in the bottom right corner of the screen. (00:39:50)
