A&E was envisioned as a commercial counterpart to PBS, and in its early days focused on such PBS-style programming as the Leonard Bernstein "Fidelio", filmed in 1978. In the 1990s, it began to add programming originally seen on commercial networks, such as reruns of "Columbo", "The Fugitive", "Breaking Away", "Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer", "The New Mike Hammer", "The Cosby Mysteries", "Quincy", "The Equalizer", "Law & Order", "The Rockford Files", and "Night Court". Highbrow British mysteries including "Agatha Christie's Poirot", "The Avengers", "Cracker", "Dalziel and Pascoe", "Inspector Morse", "Lovejoy", "Midsomer Murders", "Miss Marple", and "Sherlock Holmes" were also featured; several of these series were produced in association with A&E.
