'Murder She Wrote' is a song by Chaka Demus & Pliers, from their 1993 album Tease Me. It was first released as a single in 1992 and again in late 1993, reaching number 27 on the UK Singles Chart in early 1994.[1] The music to the song is based on the Maytals' 1966 song 'Bam Bam', while the lyrics discuss abortion (as revealed in the third verse). Two music videos were made, one with Dancehall QueenCarlene Smith, and one without. The videos cost $50,000 and $2,500 respectively to produce.[2]
Lyrics to 'Murder She Wrote' by Trey Songz. I be the one with the women by the dozen I get em all; sister, friend, or cousin I never thought I'd be the one to fall in love Then she came along (She came along) She had it all, beauty of an actress.
The song was sampled by Pitbull for the song 'El Taxi',[3] by French Montana for 'Freaks' and by Omarion for 'Post to Be', among others.[4]

.Murder, She Wrote is an American television series starring as mystery writer and amateur detective. The series aired for 12 seasons with 264 episodes from 1984 to 1996 on the network. It was followed by four TV films. Among the most successful and longest-running television shows in history, it averaged more than 30 million viewers per week in its prime (sometimes hitting above 40 million viewers), and was a staple of the CBS Sunday night lineup for a decade. In syndication, the series is still highly successful throughout the world.For her work on Murder, She Wrote, Lansbury was nominated for ten and 12, winning four Golden Globe awards.
She holds the record for the most Golden Globe nominations and wins for Best Actress in a television drama series and the most Emmy nominations for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series. The series received three Emmy nominations for Outstanding Drama Series. It was nominated for a Golden Globe in the same category six times and won twice.After the series finished in 1996, four TV movies were released between 1997 and 2003.
In 2009, was released for the PC platform, followed in 2012 by a sequel. A spin-off continues publication at present. This section needs additional citations for.

Fischer, Richard Levinson and William Link thought Lansbury would be perfect for the part of Jessica Fletcher but did not think that she would be interested in a television series. Earlier, she had acted in two film adaptations of Agatha Christie's mystery novels: as Salome Otterbourne in and as in (1980). When the latter film did poorly—despite an all star cast including, and —the offer for Lansbury to reprise Miss Marple in three more films never materialized.When she made it known she would be available if the right project came along, the three creators sent her the script and almost immediately, Lansbury felt she could do something with the role of Jessica Fletcher. With Murder, She Wrote debuting on Sunday, September 30, 1984, the producers were able to parlay their 'mystery writer/amateur detective' premise into a 12-year hit for CBS. It also made Lansbury, known previously for her motion picture and Broadway stage work, a household name for millions of television viewers.
The title comes from, which was the title of a 1961 film adaptation of Agatha Christie's Miss Marple novel.Premise The show revolves around the day-to-day life of Jessica Fletcher, (formerly Magill), a widowed and retired English teacher, who becomes a successful mystery writer.Despite fame and fortune, Jessica remains a resident of Cabot Cove, a small coastal community in, and maintains her links with all of her old friends, never letting her success go to her head.The show mostly starts with a preview of the episode's events, with Jessica stating: 'Tonight on Murder, She Wrote.' Jessica invariably proves more perceptive than the official investigators of a case, who are almost always willing to arrest the most likely suspect. By carefully piecing the clues together and asking astute questions, she always manages to trap the real murderer. Murder occurred with such regularity in her vicinity that the term 'Cabot Cove syndrome' was coined to describe the constant appearance of dead bodies in remote locations.
Indeed, if Cabot Cove existed in real life, it would top the FBI's national crime statistics in numerous categories, with some analysis suggesting that the homicide rate in Cabot Cove exceeds even that of the real-life murder capital of the world.Jessica's relationship with law enforcement officials varies from place to place. Both sheriffs of Cabot Cove resign themselves to having her meddle in their cases. However, most detectives and police officers do not want her anywhere near their crime scenes, until her accurate deductions convince them to listen to her. Some are happy to have her assistance from the start, often because they are fans of her books. With time, she makes friends in many police departments across the U.S., as well as with a British police officer attached to. At the start of season eight, more of the stories were set in New York City with Jessica moving into an apartment there part-time in order to teach criminology.Ending. Angela Lansbury in September 1989In August 1988, Lansbury expressed weariness of her commitment to the series as she was not sure, at 63, that she could continue at the pace now required of her; she specifically cited the change from seven to eight days to shoot each episode.
Thus, Murder, She Wrote went into its fifth season that fall with the distinct possibility that it would cease production at the end of it and the series finale would air in May 1989.A solution was worked on, however, which enabled Lansbury to continue but also give her time to rest. This also enabled some secondary characters to get significant stories. For the next two seasons, Lansbury reduced her appearances in several episodes, only appearing at the beginning and the end, to introduce stories starring several friends of Jessica, like PI Harry McGraw, reformed thief Dennis Stanton or MI5 agent Michael Hagarty. The 'experiment' ended in 1991. The next year, Lansbury took on a more extensive role in production as she became one of the series' executive producers.By the end of the 1994–1995 season, Murder, She Wrote's 11th season, Lansbury again was considering retirement due to her advancing age; this would have made the upcoming twelfth season the final one for the veteran drama.
CBS, however, essentially would make the decision for her in what would prove to be a mistake.When the network released its schedule for the 1995–1996 season, it decided to go in a different direction for its Sunday night lineup and placed two sitcoms, the top 30 hit and the new, into the longtime home of Murder, She Wrote. CBS then put the series in its lead position on Thursday nights, anchoring a lineup that included the new drama and the newsmagazine 48 Hours.The move put Murder, She Wrote in direct competition with the first hour of NBC's lineup, which had been drawing the highest ratings of the week for any network for years. Despite protests of many of the show's fans (who believed CBS was intentionally setting the show up to fail in its new timeslot), CBS refused to budge on the new timeslot. Murder, She Wrote plummeted from eighth to fifty-eighth in the yearly ratings as a result; the series lost nearly 6 million viewers and fell below a 10 Nielsen rating as the audience was not willing to follow it to Thursday. It also proved unwilling to watch anything else on CBS on Sunday either; Cybill saw its ratings drop significantly, Almost Perfect was quickly shuffled to Mondays in an attempt to boost its ratings and replaced by The Bonnie Hunt Show, which was quickly cancelled.
(In addition, New York News was also cancelled after a few weeks and so was its replacement, the long-running.)CBS eventually decided the drop in ratings was too much and cancelled Murder, She Wrote after twelve seasons. After a three-week hiatus in April 1996, the network returned the show to its longtime Sunday night home to conclude its run; the finale aired on May 19, 1996. The network also agreed to commission four Murder, She Wrote movies over the next few years. The first was South by Southwest (1997), with three more following as A Story to Die For (2000), The Last Free Man (2001), and The Celtic Riddle (2003).Lansbury stated in May 2011 that she would like to make a comeback appearance as Jessica Fletcher. However, in a 2015 interview, she quashed the idea of reprising the much beloved character, stating, 'I think it would be a downer. In some way, we’d have to show her as a much older woman, and I think it’s better to maintain that picture we have in our mind’s eye of her as a vigorous person.
I’m still pretty vigorous, especially in the garden but if I wanted to transform myself back into the woman I looked like then, it would be ridiculous. And I can't do that.'
She then expressed interest in revisiting the character again in 2017. Cast Regular cast. as (1984–1996; 264 episodes), a retired English teacher who, after being widowed in her early 50s, becomes a very successful mystery writer. as Dr.
Seth Hazlitt (1985–1996; 52 episodes), the local doctor of Cabot Cove and one of Jessica's best friends and most intrepid supporters.

In the season one finale, Windom portrayed Sam Breen, a lawyer who jointly murdered the victim in that episode. as Sheriff Amos Tupper (1984–1988; 19 episodes), Cabot Cove's sheriff at the start of the series.
Tupper later retires and goes to live with his sister. as Sheriff Mort Metzger (1988–1996; 40 episodes), a former officer who takes Tupper's place as sheriff in the mistaken belief that he would be living in a more peaceful place.
