Murder, She Wrote: Season 3

My wife and I had been watching "Murder, She Wrote" as late-night programming and we enjoyed it very much through the first and second season. Then we took a break. Later we came back and resumed Season Three. It's a good series. It's easy and enjoyable watching and the plots take twists and turns that are sometimes hard to follow. Now and then we have it figured out before the end of the program. In any case, it's a good thing to watch late at night. It's light entertainment and is not too thought provoking. It's very interesting to look back on the 80s, almost like a period movie. In this particular season, it's been enjoyable to spot all the actors we know from other places, and it's interesting to see them in their youth. My wife has spotted four "Star Trek" (various series) actors and a couple from "Big Love." I've spotted a couple more known actors. It adds enjoyment to the viewing. It was our impression that Season One was somewhat better than Season Two, and it's now our impression that Season Three is back to Season One in quality and enjoyment. I'd say the violence, never very high, has been upped a bit in Season Three, but it falls totally within acceptable limits, especially for a series that focuses on murder mysteries. Some people have complained about the recording of the DVD on both sides. It's a bit unusual, but we've had no problems with it. Also, there are complaints about the DVD quality. We have had no problems here either. The three complete seasons we have now watched on DVD have all functioned perfectly. Gary Peterson

I really appreciate this show because it’s extremely nostalgic and the storylines are interesting but not to dramatic and thrilling to keep you on edge. For a murder mystery show it’s really comforting. I was on vacation with people. I was unfamiliar with which gave me great anxiety so when I needed time to decompress, I would put this show on and it would help me relax

Great series love this series

SEASON THREE OF MURDER SHE WROTE I FEEL IS WHERE THEY FINALLY GOT ALL THE KINKS OUT OF THE FIRST TWO SEASONS AND THE SHOW FINALLY GOT SOME FOOTING SOME OF MY FAVORITE EPISODES FROM THIS SEASON ARE DEATH STALKS THE BIG TOP PART ONE AND TWO, MAGNUM ON ICE, STAGE STRUCK, NIGHT OF THE HEADLESS HORSEMAN THE CORPSE FLEW FIRST CLASS, CROSSED UP. THIS SEASON HAS DEAD BODY ON A PLANE, HEADLESS HORSEMAN, JESSICA OVER HEARS A MURDER ON THE PHONE AFTER THE WIRES GET CROSSED DURING A STORM... SO MANY GREAT SHOWS THIS SEASON.

Overall we have enjoyed the complete 12 years. First of all, the picture guality is excellent thruout the whole ser ies.But the first (3) seasons are on DBL sided disc, and there were a lot of hangups (freezes) thru all (3) seasons.(more of a nuisance than a problem). There were no more problems after they went to a regular disc.The worse problem to me and my wife is the sound! The background music is much louder than the dialog (voices),so at times it almost drowns out what they are saying. But it was still worth what we paid, and overall we were pretty happy with the series.Absolutely no problem with AMAZON they are great. We have ordered from them many times and everything we have ordered has come quickly and packaged very well. We have not had any problems with them at all. Robert and Anita Buckley----NC

Hello everyone, I am a avid fan of Murder She Wrote and I love that they came out on DVD. I can't wait to recieve the latest season. Now about the previous comments about the last season DVDs. Now on the first set I watch all the episodes without no problem. When it came to Season 2, I had pixelization on one episode on the second DVD and a pause and going no further on at least two episodes on the last DVD. Now let me tell you a solution and how wonderful amazon.com is. I sent an email to customer service about my problem. They replied saying that they will send me a new set, at no charge to me. They told to watch the new set and see if the same things would occur and if not to send the defective set back to them, and they will pay postage. I said to myself, YEAH!, I don't have to pay for them to ship me one or for me to ship it back to them. Now with the second set, the things did not occurred that happened with the first set. If you are having trouble, email Amazon and they will help you. They did it for me. Thanks for reading. :)

This third set of episodes of Murder She Wrote consists of episodes from the 1986/1987 series. Episodes in this set - Death Stalks The Big Top (two part mystery) Unfinished Business One White Rose for Death Corned Beef and Carnage Dead Man's Gold Deadline for Murder Magnum on Ice (part of a crossover with Magnum PI whose own episode Novel Connection features as an extra) Obituary for a Dead Anchor Stage Struck Night of the Headless Horseman The Corpse Flew First Class Crossed Up Murder in a Minor Key The Bottom Line is Murder Death Takes a Dive Simon Says, Color Me Dead No Laughing Murder No Accounting for Murder The Cemetry Vote The Days Dwindle Down Murder, She Spoke Guests stars in this set include Courteney Cox, Jenny Agutter, Ernest Borgnine, Leslie Nielsen, George Clooney (ER), Charlene Tilton (Dallas), Jerry Orbach (Law and Order), Robert Pine (CHiPs), Jared Martin (Dallas) Two of my favourite episodes are The Corpse Flew First Class in which Jessica visits London (again) and Night of the Headless Horseman which for some reason I loved during it's first airing in the 1980s. Once again Angela Lansbury provides a first class performance throughout this set as crime writer Jessica Fletcher. Enjoy!

In this season, the second to last of the Amos Tupper( Tom Bosley) era and where his Happy Days daughter (Erin Moran) makes a guest apearance. This season MS Lansbury seems to be getting more comfortable with the character of JB Fletcher as she always does with the every character she plays. In this season you will see Guest stars like Courtney Cox, before she became a friend and an Arquette in the season opener and the first two parter for the series where she plays a niece of Jesica's who'se about to get married. Other guest stars are George Clooney, before he became Dr Ross on ER and there is a crossover episode of Magnum PI and you get both episodes of that the Magnum episode is the special features on side B of Disc 3. So if you want a good mystry and see a professional at work then don't go past this season , you might regret it
