What a hoot--Murder, She Wrote! [View all]

I never watched this show when it was current. When Angela Lansbury died, I started from Episode 1. So many famous guest stars in every show!

Jessica Fletcher jogs. She rides her bike. She has at least the innuendo of a love interest in every episode; she's written as a savvy, attractive, mature woman.

Before cell phones! No internet! The plots border on the ridiculous, but I'm going to keep watching until the novelty wears off.
