Remington Steele
Remington Steele is a U.S. television program. The series combined elements of the romantic comedy, drama, and procedural detective genres. Remington Steele is well-known for beginning Pierce Brosnan's career and for paving the way for the comparable series Moonlighting. The concept of Remington Steele is that certified private investigator Laura Holt, portrayed by Stephanie Zimbalist, launched a detective service under her own name but discovered that potential clients refused to hire a woman, regardless of her qualifications. Laura creates a phony male boss named Remington Steele to fix the problem. Pierce Brosnan's character, a former robber and con man whose real name is never disclosed, takes the guise of Remington Steele through a series of events that unravel in the first episode, "License to Steele." Laura maintains strict control behind the scenes.
