Significance and Influence
Any history of American television in the 1980s will conclude that TV drama underwent a significant evolution in both content and styles of storytelling. Remington Steele is best known for launching the career of Pierce Brosnan and for serving as a forerunner of the similar, edgier series Moonlighting, and was also an influential part of television history in its own right. Recent evaluations, in the wake of the series' full release on DVD, conclude that Steele was solidly crafted, well-acted and groundbreaking in its own way. Other recent evaluations have also noted that series has aged better than some other series of its time, perhaps due to the timelessness of its central theme.
