Murder She Wrote, which was wildly popular for its entire 12-year run, was one of the most successful mystery shows of all time. Angela Lansbury stars as Jessica Fletcher, a widowed mystery writer who stumbles across a murder in each episode, and cleverly deduces who the criminal is before anyone else can.
Much of the viewer's pleasure comes from investigating the crime along with Jessica, and from Lansbury's charming portrayal of the amateur sleuth, a role for which she received an astonishing 12 Emmys.
Murder She Wrote also broke new ground by being one of the very first (and still one of the few) American television programs to feature an older woman in the lead role. Features all 22 episodes from the show's sixth series:
Appointment in Athens; Seal of the Confessional; The Grand Old Lady; The Error of Her Ways; Jack and Bill; Dead Letter;
Night of the Tarantula; When the Fat Lady Sings; Test of Wills; Class Act; Town Father; Good-Bye Charlie; If the Shoe Fits; How to Make a Killing Without Really Trying; The Fixer-Upper; The Big Show of 1965; Murder - According to Maggie; O'Malley's Luck; Always a Thief; Shear Madness;
The Szechuan Dragon; The Sicilian Encounter.
