I really like this show. I like it because it's so silly. It takes the ridiculous detective/adventure shows we see now(Riptide, The A-Team) and carries it to the ultimate conclusion - absurdity. Remmington Steele has the most outrageous plots. Just last night they went out investigating chocolate chip cookies. They get out of sticky situations that are just like the situations on the other shows, but they have so much more elan. Does anyone know the future of this show? How are the ratings? Is it scheduled to be renewed? And what about Laura and Mr. Steele??? Will they ever mix business and pleasure? Sometimes you get the feeling they will, but it doesn't carry from show to show. Well, whatever happens, I'm pretty well hooked. It's not often you get to look at a man as dashing and handsome as Remmington Steele! Sharon Badian

> > I really like this show. I like it because it's so silly. Hear, hear! I have enjoyed this show ever since I first started watching it. The first season was fun with the character "Murphy" who was her old assistant who was in love with her, but she didn't know it. Now they have Mildred who I am enjoying. The plots are stupid, but always carried out with fun, and of course style. I think that Remington is the logical replacement for David Niven as role model for the sophisticated man.
