Season 5 finds Murder, She Wrote's intrepid Jessica Fletcher in fine sleuthing form, and venturing farther afield from Cabot Cove--a good thing, since at the rate the murders have been happening, that town would be nearly cleaned out. Some of the best episodes take place in more exotic locales like New York (dead man on the street, wearing just one shoe), Montana (a publishing convention gone horribly wrong) and West Virginia (two whistle-blowers at a coal company found gruesomely murdered). Angela Lansbury sparkles with determination and bonhomie, hitting her stride and then some. Jessica's own life backstory is even filled out tantalizingly, especially in the episode 'The Last Flight of the Dixie Damsel,' in which an investigation is launched into a mysterious cargo plane that is linked, she learns to her horror, to her late husband. The series' other delight is watching for cameos by stars of a certain age, and this season doesn't disappoint, with appearances by Roddy McDowall, Shelley Fabares, and Dinah Shore--but also some up-and-comers like Megan Mullally (proof positive that the Will & Grace whine was a put-on) and future satirist Bill Maher. Extras include a fresh and beguiling interview with Lansbury, who clearly relishes the gift the role of Fletcher was in the latter part of her acting career, as well as other members of the cast and crew. --A.T.

Rating:  - More of the same, but if you're a fan, that's a good thing
If you've made it to Season five of "Murder She Wrote", then you probably already have a pretty good idea of what this series is about and of whether you'll like it or not. Season five of "Murder She Wrote" is just more of the same. The only major change between this seasons and the ones before it is that Sheriff Amos Tupper (Tom Bosley) has "left" Cabot Cove and has been replaced by Sheriff Mort Metzger (Ron Masak) (Bosley actually left to star in his own mystery series, "The Father Dowling Mysteries", which is also likely to appeal to "Murder She Wrote" fans, although is not currently available on DVD). Although Amos is sorely missed, Sheriff Metzger does grow on you and by the end of the season, I found that I quite liked him. His outburst in the second last episode is absolutely hilarious. As usual, there are tons of guest stars. The highlights of this series include Roddy McDowall, Megan Mullally, Erin Gray, Paul Sorvino, Brad Dourif, Dee Wallace-Stone, Efrem Zimbalist Jr, and of course, William Windom as Dr Seth Hazlitt.

Rating: - Murder, She Wrote - Complete Fifth Season
I've been a fervent fan of Angela Lansbury / Jessica Fletcher since the program first aired in the eighties, and am simply delighted to have copies of each season for my personal use.
Her use of vintage movie stars, TV stars, veteran actors, etc. adds an element of fun & surprise to each show. Also, soon-to-be super stars also pop up from time to time - (George Clooney, Andy Garcia, etc.).
