Steele, Remington Steele
Having prevented Pierce Bronson from accepting the role of James Bond in 1987, it is somewhat ironic that 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment is leveraging Brosnan’s later Bondian success on the cover of Remington Steele Season One.
“Before he was Bond, he was Remington Steele.”
This popular television series launched Brosnan’s career and established his unique onscreen persona. Years of sexual tension and bickering between Brosnan’s Steele and Stephanie Zimbalist’s Laura Holt as they solved crimes – he the con artist, she the licensed private detective – preceded the years of sexual tension and bickering between Cybill Shepherd’s Maddie Hayes and Bruce Willis’ David Addison as they solved crimes on Moonlighting.
The four discs in this DVD set will be double-sided and contain all 22 episodes (four with commentaries) and three featurettes. Presented in its broadcast aspect ratio of 1.33:1 and Dolby Surround 2.0, expect an SRP of $39.98. It will be released on July 26th.
