KMUPschedule01 — Gonzo announces the line-up

Murder, She Wrote was an American mystery series which aired on CBS from 1984 to 1996. Starring Angela Lansbury as mystery writer and amateur detective Jessica Fletcher, the series was spun off into four made for television films, and a series of books ghost written by Donald Bain.

One of the longest-running telelvision series for CBS, the series received a total of twelve Best Actress Emmy Award-nominations for Lansbury, which was a record, yet she never won. The popularity of fictional author Jessica Fletcher was so popular, that she even guest starred on an episode of Magnum, P.I..
