Editorial Reviews

Sharpen your senses and be on the lookout for clues in the compelling fifth season of the Emmy Award-winning series Murder, She Wrote, starring Golden Globe winner Angela Lansbury. This five-disc set features all 22 Season Five episodes that take TV's famous novelist-turned-detective, Jessica Fletcher, from not-so-sleepy Cabot Cove to the dangerous bright lights of New York City, and beyond. From uncovering false fortune seekers to tracking down two-faced killers, Jessica is always there to catch the culprit and pen the final solution to the case. Giving their alibis in these entertaining episodes are an incredible group of guest stars, including Megan Mullally, Erin Gray, Roddy McDowall, Bill Maher, Dinah Shore, Paul Sorvino, Shelley Fabares, and many more. A new chapter begins on DVD for one of TV's most sensational sleuths ever! Starring: Angela Lansbury

5.0 out of 5 stars Ever the Fletcherfan! This season rocks!, January 16, 2007
By 
Fletcherfan (Douglasville, GA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Murder, She Wrote - The Complete Fifth Season (DVD)
I am excited that the series is being released more regular than in the past. Also, the addition of only have a one sided disc has made a huge difference in the discs being played on my DVD player. In the past, I know that many people complained of players not being able to play the double sided disc. That being said I think that the show just continues to get better. I thought that this season in particular rocks. Angela Lansbury continues to be awesome as JB Fletcher. You must be a fan or you would not want info on season 5.

5.0 out of 5 stars J.B. Fletcher amazes, yet again!, March 15, 2008
This review is from: Murder, She Wrote - The Complete Fifth Season (DVD)
I have loved Murder She Wrote since watching the first season as a thirteen year-old back in 1984. I have faithfully followed all the seasons, and Season Five [1988-89] is as entertaining as ever. I have to say that though I love all the locations for the stories, my favorite is Cabot Cove, Maine and I just adore the quirky townspeople and the scandals around them!

In Season Five, we have some noted guest stars such as Maxwell Caulfield, John Rhys-Davies, Emma Samms, Bo Svenson, Erin Gray, etc. With such talents abounding in each episode, its no wonder that watching this series is such a pleasure! The stories are creative and well-written, with a cohesive plotline and of course, stellar acting.

Of course, the regulars are a hoot to watch as well! Angela Lansbury is flawless in her role as super sleuth J.B. Fletcher, and there are of course William Windom as Dr Seth Hazlitt, Richard Paul as mayor Sam Booth, Jerry Orbach as PI Harry McGraw etc. Tom Bosley's role as Sheriff Amos Tupper is replaced by Ron Masak, playing Sheriff Mort Metzger. It doesn't take one too long to warm up to Sheriff Metzger as played by Ron Masak. He is the perfect foil to J.B. Fletcher, and I just love watching the comical expressions on his face as Jessica stumps him again and again on cases they work on together!

Angela Lansbury s such a talented actress and continues to amaze till today [at 82!]. What I love most about her portrayal of J.B. Fletcher is that she plays a strong, intelligent, and attractive middle-aged lady [such roles are so scarce in Hollywood], and managed to entertain audiences for 12 years in her most-famous screen role! I hope the later seasons [9-12] will be made available on DVD soon!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Old Murder She Wrote!, June 5, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Murder, She Wrote - The Complete Fifth Season (DVD)
When I'm feeling stressed from a tough day at work, I watch these great old "Murder She Wrote" episodes. They are entertaining and seem warm and fuzzy in spite of the subject matter. Angela Lansbury is like a reassuring old friend. This season is recorded on much better quality dvds than the previous seasons, which gave me a lot of trouble. You can see and feel the superior quality of this set. I managed to play the whole season without a single problem, which makes me very happy.
