    Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
    Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
    Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
    Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
    willman85 Stephanie Zimbalist is so beautiful in this, and the role of a smart, successful sleuth really suits her. Glamorous, alluring, sexy, sophisticated. Shimmering soft hair, gorgeously pert and pretty features, the voice of a lady. The envy and idol of little girls everywhere. Always elegant and enchanting, a classy leading lady.Oh yeah and there's Pierce. For the ladies.
    darbski One of the reviewers titled their work "Reasons To Love Remington Steele. The main one in my humble (but correct) estimation is Stephanie Zimbalist. Yeah, the show was well written, tight direction ...blah, blah ....I watched it because I thought that Stephanie was hot. Certainly a fine actress (watch the mini series Centennial, if you doubt it), the main reason for me to watch this series was Ms. Zimbalist.You may now return to your regular programming.
    ebiros2 I got to watch the season 1 on DVD recently, and was surprised to see how low quality the production was. What marred the quality was the horrible quality of the actors that appeared as guest stars on each episode, and there was so much shtick on each episode. I mean senseless amount of shtick that it obscured any plot if there was any of each episode. The only thing that was good was Pierce, and obviously he had quality as he went on to be the leading man on other good series such as The Noble House, and James Bond series. The other actors were absolutely (except Stephanie Zimbalist) the bottom of the barrel, and I guess all they could do was shtick which added to the confusion and senselessness of each episode. On one or two episodes when they did have a good guest star, it showed as they hold their own even with all the confusion of shticks that the writer threw into the plot. I got the entire season 1 for $15 and that's about what it's worth. I'd say avoid this series (at least the first season) as it has no substance. Other seasons may be better, but I'm not sure if I'd want to take the risk of spending any more money on what might be an disappointment.
    Syl The casting of Pierce Brosnan as Remington Steele, private investigator, and Stephanie Zimbalist as Laura Holt, the private investigator who conjured up the name in order to get her business moving. After all, a woman private investigator did not fare well in the world. Remington Steele pops up and there is obvious chemistry between the two characters. Steele is charismatic, charming, and seductive while Holt is more straight and lacks a sense of humor at times. There is no question that Steele steals the scenery right out from under her. Anyway, the two cast mates do have chemistry. The addition of Doris Roberts before she was known as Marie Boyle on Everybody Loves Raymond gave her a supporting role. This show was light but not as a feather nor dark or too serious. It had a comedy and drama mixed in together which was why it worked for 5 seasons in the golden age of television.
