Murder She Wrote - The Complete Fifth Season

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 12 years. The fifth season finds Jessica solving crimes from her home town of Cabot Cove to the gritty streets of New York City. Future stars like Megan Mullally and Bill Maher made guest appearances, as did veteran actors like Roddy McDowall and Dinah Shore. Lansbury earned 12 nominations for her smart and warm portrayal of Jessica (one for each season), but she was never rewarded for her deserving efforts.
