Tenspeed And Brown Shoe

Tenspeed and Brown Shoe

DVD Debut of the Cannell Cult Classic - 12 Episodes of this beloved crime caper! Jeff Goldblum stars as the naive, terminally-square stockbroker Lionel "Brown Shoe" Whitney who fantasizes of becoming a hardboiled private eye like his fictional literary hero, investigator Mark Savage. Ben Vereen is E.L. "Tenspeed" Turner, a fast-talking con artist who is out on parole and looking for his next big score. These two mismatched men are the unlikeliest of teams, yet through a series of circumstances, they form a detective agency. Mixing side-splitting comedy with whip-smart action storylines, this acclaimed but short lived TV series set the stage for future shows like "Simon & Simon" and "Moonlighting". Vereen and Goldblum shine in this groundbreaking show created by Stephen J. Cannell. This entertaining and affectionate homage to the P.I. genre is filled with style verve and heart as the formidable duo remain forever at odds in their view of...well...everything.
