TV show description:
Laura Holt (Stephanie Zimbalist) is a talented private detective. The only trouble is that potential clients won’t hire her because she doesn’t fit the typical stereotype and isn’t a man. To overcome this problem, she decides to invent a male boss for herself named Remington Steele — basing the name on her Remington typewriter and the Pittsburgh Steelers football team. Laura names her agency after him and business immediately picks up.
