Every time I settle in for my nightly Murder She Wrote and JB Fletcher starts talking directly to the camera I am so disappointed.
I do not care for these episodes where she introduces a show without her.
I have speculated that either Angela Lansbury was doing a Broadway show, needed a break, or they were throwing these characters on the wall to see what stuck to possibly start a spin-off.
Whatever the reason, I can barely watch.
I DO like many of the actors that appear in these type of episodes, like in this one, Diana Canova, great, Gary Sandy, also pretty good (although I felt he was a tad over-the-top).
I watch the show to see JB Fletcher, and in particular, the Cabot Cove cast of characters.
