Murder, She Wrote

If someone asked me what I wanted to be when I grow up, it would be a famous crime writer like Jessica Fletcher. Murder She Wrote is quite awful and predictable, but damn is it cosy. A former English teacher, Jessica (Angela Lansbury) becomes famous when she writes a best-selling novel after the death of her husband. Her keen sense of detection leads her to solving crimes within her hometown of Cabot Cove and later in New York City and abroad, often to the annoyance of the local police.
