Editor's Note
There's little doubt that Jessica Fletcher's name belongs in the fictional detectives' Hall of Fame with such legends as Sherlock Holmes, Miss Marple, and Nancy Drew. Played by Angela Lansbury, the writer-detective was the center of MURDER, SHE WROTE, a mystery series that ran for more than a decade. Lansbury earned 12 nominations (one for each season) for her smart and warm portrayal of Jessica, but she was never rewarded for her efforts. This release includes all 22 episodes of the sixth season featuring guest stars such as Jerry Stiller, Elliott Gould, Shirley Jones, and Shirley Knight.

While so many television networks pander to the all too often puerile tastes of the younger viewers, CBS saw fit to present several series geared towards the older members of the audience. One of the most notable of these mystery series was Murder, She Wrote. As many television shows moved towards the edge, frequently pushing the boundaries of what was acceptable this series started out always tasteful and remained such through out the almost dozen years it was on the air. This in itself was quite an accomplishment, quality television that lasted through the years.
