    90's private investigator show, man and woman, partners.
    I remember a tv-show I saw when I was younger, but I don't remember what it was called. It was about a man and a woman who were private investigators. They had a little office, only one room, that I think was white. There prople came and asked them to investigate their cases. I think the man was dark-haired and might wore sunglasses often. I also think he had a gun placed on his body with this "gun-belt" that you see people wear on their upper bodies in tv-series. The lady was maybe dark or red haired, half long hair. This took place in a warm place, maybe Hawaii or California, I remember beaches. They had a friend, a man, I think he was dark blond, a little short. He wore hawaiian shirts, an he used to sit at the bar down by the beach. He was a little special, had a special voice I think. I think he was unnapployed, and he helped these detectives sometimes. He was kind of clumsy or something, a "fun-man". These three were the main characters. I think I saw this in the early 90's. The characters must have been in their early/mid 30's. Can someone please help me with this?

    The two detective shows that come to mind that have male/female partners are

    Remington Steele "Remington Steele" (1982) and

    Moonlighting "Moonlighting" (1985)

    These are both from the mid 80's though.

    It wasn't any of these shows. They are too old. This must have been in the early 90's. It was maybe in Miami, Florida, or some warm place like that. The scenes I remember was when they were in the office, wich was not big, just one room, with a desk and some other things. And I remember theur friend, the little guy in Hawaii shirt sitting at the bar by the beach. I think they all met there in the en of the episodes when they had solved the case. The male detective liked women and I think he sometimes flirted with the ladys that came to the office with a case. And I think the male detective did most of the work outside the office. The female was more in the office, took phones and maybe used a computer, I didn't remember if they had one.

    I remember a show that sounds exactly like that, but it was not called sweating bullets. I cannot remember the name, and came here looking for an answer but I am sure I would recognise the name if I heard it and sweating bullets isn't ringing any bells. Oh well I don't think I will die if I don't find the name.
