Big hair, shoulder pads, fancy duds, limousines and murder....everything you wanted in an 80's retro series. Been so long since I originally saw the series on TV, it's like visiting with an old friend you'd lost touch with. This series took Pierce Brosnan from a virtual unknown to a star - and rightly so. We loved the series and in particular loved the retrospectives from the cast and producers who explained a lot of the background stuff. As they said, "this was before computer-graphic imaging. These scenes were all real". Season 2 included the introduction of Doris Roberts as Myrtle Krebs. What a wonderful addition! In an early episode Myrtle purchased a classic Auburn convertible which added a lot of pizzazz to the series. As the creators say, they fashioned this series after some 1940's Cary Grant films and it worked. This series is well worth looking into: it's a sexy adventure comedy-drama that will knock your socks off!Read full review
Purchased Season One of Remington, and was very happy to find that the show appeals as much to me today as it did in the eighties. Season One is good, but unless I missed them there were no comments by Stephanie, only by Pierce, the gal who played Bernice, and the behind the scenes folks. Season Two, however, has comments from Pierce, Stephanie and Doris, including Doris' comments about how she got the part. Season Two also includes my personal favorite episode "Love Among the Steele", the one with the classic car. Both Seasons One and Two are worth buying, but if have to choose only one, I recommend Season Two.
Recently my mother told me that she was sorry that she re-recorded over the Remington Steele episodes. I vaguely remembered watching this show when I was young. So, for Mother's Day, I surprised her with the Remington Steele espisodes Season 1,2,3. We have all enjoyed watching them and they are rotating to all friends and family. Everyone she has loaned them to has really enjoyed watching them! Great episodes and Dvd is easy to navigate. It also has great commentary and star appearances!
An avid fan of this series I an looking forward to enjoying it a second time. I became a fan of Stephanie Zimbalist through the series and i adore her. The show has allot of appeal.

I used to watch this on TV and loved it. I'm so glad that I was able to get it on Ebay and enjoy the series again. Video and Audio qualities are superb.
