A beautiful, intelligent, female private investigator.

A handsome, mysterious, blue-eyed con-man.

Put them together, and you've got the hit TV series Remington Steele.

The show starred Stephanie Zimbalist as private investigator Laura Holt, and Pierce Brosnan as the enigmatic stranger who assumes the identity of her imaginary boss, Remington Steele.

Besides Stephanie and Pierce, other regulars included James Read and Janet DeMay (from the first season), Doris Roberts (seasons 2-5), and Jack Scalia (season 5). Semi-regulars included Blake Clark (Fred the chauffeur), Michael Constantine (George), Efrem Zimbalist Jr. (Daniel) and Cassandra Harris (Felicia/Anna). Other stars of note include screen legends Dorothy Lamour, Lloyd Nolan and Virginia Mayo, baseball legends Mickey Mantle and Whitey Ford, and modern-day stars Sharon Stone, Annie Potts and Delta Burke.

The series was first broadcast on Friday, October 1, 1982. The show ran until May 10, 1986, when it was cancelled. But viewer demand (along with a few other factors) revived the show for six more episodes in early 1987. The show ended for good on February 17, 1987.

No one can really agree on which factor made Remington Steele so great -- intriguing mysteries, witty dialogue, or the romantic chemistry between the two lead characters. Whatever the case, the show's popularity has continued through today.

Despite the 15 years since the cancellation, many fans are still loyal to the show they watched in the '80s, while others have discovered the show through reruns, first on CBN, then A&E, and again on The Family Channel (now ABC Family), CBN's '90s counterpart. The series was seen for the last two years on PAX, but has now been pulled from the lineup. There has been no word on the show being picked up by another station yet.

Newsflash

20th Century Fox, which now owns the rights to Remington Steele, was rumored to be considering a two-hour movie based on the original series. The movie would be an updated version of the original's pilot. If successful, Fox is rumored to be considering using the movie as the pilot for a new Remington Steele series. The idea is still in the planning stages, and no casting information or timetable has been released. It is highly doubtful, however, that the new show would involve any of the original show's lead cast members. No new information has surfaced on this, though, so it could be dead.

The better news is that Fox Home Video has released Remington Steele Season 1 and Season 2 on DVD, and Season 3 is expected to hit store shelves April 25! Amazon.com currently has it for preorder at 30% off.
