I’m trying to figure out how to express my excitement/love/feelings-of-kindred/nerdgasm without sounding weird. HOLY CRAP I LOVE YOUR BLOG. I’m literally going to go watch another episode of Murder She Wrote RIGHT NOW.

Oh thank you! That’s awesome 😀

Murder, She Wrote used to air when I was a child and when Netflix recommended it I started watching it out of nostalgia. After I stumbled across your blog, I began reading each entry while watching the corresponding episode. And I’m really loving it! Not only are your recaps really funny, but your images! Hahahahaha! So I just wanted to write you a line to let you know that your blog entries are hilarious, and much appreciated.

Oh thank you!! That’s so lovely to hear!!

Hilarious! I love your blog! Can’t wait to read all the posts. I don’t know what it is but I just can’t seem to stop watching Murder, She Wrote. I just love it. I guess I’m not alone he he.

Happy birthday (late)! Lately I’ve been dreaming of owning a Cabot Cove Neighborhood Watch t-shirt. Any chance of this happening?
Jun 05, 2014 @ 06:39:10
Thank you!
Oh goodness! That’s an amazing idea! I have zero t-shirt designing abilities though 😦 Let me think about it!

Just want to say I love your blog. Huge fan of Murder She wrote, 23 year young woman here, my friends say I must have an old soul because Angela is my favorite<3 This is one of the best scripted & plotted shows of all time, I love playing along and trying to solve each mystery. Your blog is super funny and I love all your captioned pictures. I hope you keep this up! 🙂

Oh thanks Brittany! Glad to have you on board! And no, they certainly don’t make shows like this anymore, which is a shame.

Been reading more blogs, You have a great way to word things. love all of it, the captions, and the crossouts..didnt I just post this elsewhere??
Aug 06, 2016 @ 08:57:12
I love your blog!! It’s a great reference while I’m watching the show on Netflix.
Aug 06, 2016 @ 16:09:31
😀 I’m so glad you’re enjoying it!
Nov 22, 2016 @ 08:34:27
I love your blog a lot. I stil love to see Murder, She Wrote when it is on television. Truly a fantastic show.
May 22, 2018 @ 17:59:17
For some reason I’m not exactly sure of, i started watching Murder, She Wrote on DVD. In looking up into on various actors who looked familiar and other info on M,SW I discovered your blog. I enjoy it very much, you are a good writer and very clever.
May 22, 2018 @ 18:31:40
Glad you are enjoying it! 😁
May 24, 2018 @ 12:43:09
Great work! I always visit your blog when I can’t finish an episode on TV (not streaming),£ and you always make me laugh!
May 27, 2018 @ 12:18:20
Hahaha I’m so glad you’re enjoying it!
Mar 02, 2019 @ 17:02:40
I watched this every Sunday Night during the 80s and 90s in the U.S. except the year I spent in Brizzy as an exchange student from 87-88. Now it is on in the late evenings on Hallmark Movies and Mysteries. I enjoy reading your blogs as I watch it- lol.

Briony I don’t know where you get your patience from but I 💖love the amount of detail that you put into every episode. Its great to find someone that loves MSW as much as I do, or more!
There are of course favourites like “Mr Penroys vacation” or “If its Thursday it must be Beverley” and many more. I just love the faces Jessica pulls!
Oh, 3 episodes are on back to back on 5USA weekdays March 2019 and from the beginning!!. I’ve seen them all but I cant help watching them again.
I love Mary’s message from Nov 2013 !
Keep on keeping on
😍Loving your Work 💖

Where do you watch Seasons 6-12? Seasons 1-5 are now on Amazon Prime, but I cannot seem to find the rest. Am I going to have to just buy the dvd’s you think? BTW – love your blog. It’s refreshing to find someone who loves these episodes and finds them as comforting and cozy as I do, while also still providing an entertaining critique.
May 05, 2019 @ 08:35:54
I bought all the DVDs! But someone on here might be able to help.
Sep 11, 2019 @ 11:28:26
I, too, am so annoyed that only 1-5 are streaming! I hear they were on Netflix before this and perhaps it was the entire run. DVDs are so passe, haha. 🙂

I was just watching a video by Pushing Up Roses about the Death Takes A Dive episode and found your blog quite handy for figuring out what the other roles played by Michael McGrady were so I could bore people in the comments.
Sep 11, 2019 @ 11:32:56
Briony, I found your blog just as I began an epic binge of the series about a month ago. I’m only a few years older than you, and have fond memories watching MSW when it was on with my grandmother and mother after the former would come over for her weekly dinner with us. Tom Bosley also bears a striking resemblance to my deceased father (I don’t mean that to sound depressing, it’s actually rather comforting!). Your writing is detailed, subversive, and endlessly amusing. (Grady is totes the worst.) Thank you so much!
Jan 11, 2020 @ 11:37:50
I love your blog! I’m rewatching all MSW and will now read your blog after watching each episode. Great job!

I was searching for weather susspants (tolliver) character ever made a second or third …etc appearance on murder she wrote when I found your blog. I watched murder she wrote as a young woman and watch it now in the mornings on cozi tv or prime. I got a kick out of your review and will continue to read each episode as I watch them. The world needs some light hearted fun right now and this blog accomplishes that for me. Thanks for the time , energy and sense of humor you put into it.
Mar 23, 2021 @ 08:21:23
Love it! We so do need fun and you do it the way I like! Carry on and thanks! Jessica would find it very funny I’m sure.
May 07, 2021 @ 18:30:29
Thanks for all your hard work. I’m rewatching Murder she wrote. I’m so thankful for the People of Death for first 4 seasons.
Jun 14, 2021 @ 20:44:39
Love your blog, it’s such a scream, very funny. Mum loves this show and we have all watched it so many times, we are suffering from Stockholm syndrome. I do appreciate viewing this on Foxtel, with endless ads for life insurance and funerals, what would Jessica say?
