When I was a little kid I loved Remington Steele. I know it gets a bad rap because it’s known more today as the show that wouldn’t let you out of your contract to play James Bond, but how do you feel about the show itself?

I love the show. [Laughs.] I mean, I love the show, but I never knew it had a bad rap.

Maybe not “bad rap,” but just that it’s often mentioned in a negative way, like, “They wouldn’t let him out of the contract.” That’s the only way I ever see it mentioned now. But I think the show was really good.

Yeah, well, Remington, I adored. I mean, Jesus, it was my ticket to America! It was my ticket to this career that I have now and I was fully aware of my place in time and history and wanting to be an American – wanting to work in American movies, television. So Remington, I hold him in high regard, I adore the fellow.

I'm so happy that Mr. Brosnan is so positive about the show "Remington Steele." He should be. "Remington Steele" was a great show. He played a fascinating character.....so handsome, dashing, smart, protective, suave, cool, romantic, brave, caring and debonair. And he and Stephanie Zimbalist were gorgeous, stylish, and magical together. They gave me one of my all-time favorite shows and one of my all-time favorite couples.
