From 1985 - 1988 Robert Urich played a detective in 'Spencer: For Hire'.

Or maybe Paul Michael Glaser, who played a detective in 'Starsky and Hutch', but that was in the 70's (1975 - 1979).

pierce brosnan actually played a PI in an 80s series called Remington Steele. could that be what you're thinking of?

I would have initially guessed "Remington Steele" myself, but since that wasn't it, maybe it was "Hart to Hart" with Robert Wagner?

Matt Houston (ABC TV series from 1982 -1985)?
Synopsis:
Matt Houston stars Lee Horsley as a wealthy mustachioed Texas oilman named Matlock "Matt" Houston who worked as a private investigator in Los Angeles in his abundant free time. The show also starred Pamela Hensley as his lawyer sidekick, C.J., and George Wyner as his continuously frustrated business manager. During the show's third and final season (1984–85), Buddy Ebsen joined the cast as Matt Houston's uncle, Roy Houston.
