Murder, She Wrote Reviews

Murder She Wrote is an American murder mystery show that ran from 1984 to 1996 making it the longest running mystery series on television. Even though this is now an old show and quite a PG series I absolutely love it. I think it brings back memories of old times and a lot of nostalgia. Some of the clothes and outfits are so 80's but ...  Read the complete review

When it began its run in 1984, nobody imagined that Murder, She Wrote (or Murder, To Watch as I recently heard it referred to) would run for an amazing 12 years, nor that it would boast a couple of fairly watch-able television movies. Back in the 80's, it was considered low-grade entertainment, although in this day and age of reality television ...  Read the complete review

She has her small group of ...  Read the complete review

This programme first hit our screens in 1984 and ran until 1996 so for 12 years viewers enjoyed watching Angela Lansbury as the mystery/crime writer J.B.Fletcher. She came from a small place in Maine called Cabot Cove and yes it was predictable because you always knew that wherever she went there was sure to follow a murder. In her own ...  Read the complete review

The first few months I was at home with Scarlett, I was a bit of a daytime tv addict. I’m sure most of you will agree that the worst tv seems to be put on during the day, some of it really is very dire. However, a new baby is very demanding so when I could I spent my time blanked out in front of the nonsense that is on during the day, trisha, this ...  Read the complete review

The typewriter. The music. If ever there was a sign that you should be getting out more - this is it! Surely you can find something better to do on a Sunday afternoon than watch this cheap imported pap! All credit to Ms Lansbury - she's managed to convince everyone that it's a different story every week, when in actual fact ...  Read the complete review

How can one woman work through so much family? Warning of an impending visit by her must strike terror into the hearts of any would-be host. Who would die this time? Will it be me or a loved one? Will I have to spend time in prison. Chances are, the answer will be yes to AT LEAST one of those questions! But for all that, this formula ...  Read the complete review

I love Murder She Wrote. Its ideal for afternoon viewing, and always with a happy ending. Yes she seems to know millions of people (surprisingly! you'd think her friends would keep a wide berth) but so what, its great easy viewing, definitely something the kids could sit and watch with me without having nightmares for weeks to come. ...  Read the complete review

Hey, dooyoo editors, haven't you made a mistake? Surely this should be in the comedy section, not here in Drama with such notables as Oliver Twist and Hornblower! Seriously though, this is corny! corny! corny! I have, admittedly, only seen one episode all the way through, but seen one, seen 'em all as far as plot goes. ...  Read the complete review

You know how Kate Adie, news reporter, always seems to be in places just before a war breaks out. If you live somewhere peaceful and she turns up on your doorstep, you clear out very quickly. Well she has nothing at all on Angela Lansbury. Angela has to be the person you would least want to invite to a dinner party - unless you want three or ...  Read the complete review

How can i put into words how much i hate this series. This Jessica character every bloody week stumbles over the corpse of some b-rate actor who's been murdered only in a way she can solve. Apparently the cops are too stupid to solve the crime, something i'm perfectly willing to believe, but she can, something i'm not. How can a person ...  Read the complete review

I don't mean to be funny but how many people does this woman know who has had a friend/relative/colleague bumped off and they have been suspected of it? I think the common theme is that every time she goes somewhere, someone is murdered - she is obviously a psychopathic serial killer (or likes to practice the plots of her books in real life). ...  Read the complete review
