How to Watch Remington Steele for Free

I wanted to watch a good mystery type tv show the other day and didn’t see anything decent on. I hopped online and looked around. In no time, I was watching Remington Steele tv show episodes for free! (Remington Steele is a humor filled PI show where actress Stephanie Zimbalist and actor Pierce Brosnan flirt their way through crime after crime.)
Head to Hulu.com or Fancast.com and then simply search for Remington Steele. On Hulu.com, you’ll discover three of the seasons. Fancast has only a few episodes.
If you are watching the Remington Steele episodes on Hulu, you’ll see a long list of episodes with pictures. They’re for the most current season. However, if you want to start with Season One, Episode One, it is easier to look above the bar over the episode/picture list and to the right. This list is in chronological order. (I know it seems simplistic to explain this, but I completely missed the list without pictures the first time I looked at the page because my eye was drawn down to all the pictures!
Now, all you need to do is click on the episode you want to watch and wait for it to load. I usually pause the video to allow the buffer to fill so that it plays without jumping when I hit play.
If you don’t like to watch shows online or you can’t wait for the rest of the episodes to be available for free, you can get all five seasons of Remington Steele on DVD. Since I believe in being thrifty, I’m waiting!
As the Mom of three teens and step Mom to 6 more I feel confident to give some valid advice on the subject of teens.
#1. Rule each child should have space where they can go when they want to be alone, this space should have music , but no internet, no tv and certainly no cell phone use in this space.
#2. Keep the computer where you can keep an eye on them anything else is just not wise.
#3. Phone usage is 20 minutes unless special permission otherwise and cell phone is pay as you go plan only to be used to inform parents of your wearabouts, ride needs , or an emergency anything more than this and you are creating your own problems.
#4. TV watching during the week when they have school should be extremely limited ( being on a sports team should be mandatory!)
#5. Social time out on the weekend is also mandatory and given the age should have privledges increase with the age.
#6. All teens should learn basic cooking, cleaning, home repairs, entertaining, home economics, budgetting and other necessary skills of life!
Use all that TV internet and cell phone time to teach these.
Follow these rules and you will be much closer to an independent adult when they are 18 than you are to a spoiled child who thinks the world owes them something just because they showed up !
Rules of life: If you dirty it you will need to clean it , if you dropped it you will need to pick it up. If you expect a roof over your head you will have to work for it…..
