Did y'all know that there were four MSW television movies made after the fact? I stumbled across a DVD collection a while back, but I haven't watched any of them yet.

Whenever I see the covers of 'Siamese Dream' or 'Melon Collie and the Infinite Sadness' all I can think of the Murder, She Wrote title card. It's a very distinctive font that I haven't seen anyplace else.

Knight Rider had it, kinda

Clearly a font of a certain time and place

a friend of mine had a rather sheltered upbringing but they watched this show a lot as a kid. as a result, they believed that being an adult involved a regular and ordinary risk of being murdered.

I always hated the "reveal" ending scenes where she would calmly explain to the killer exactly how s/he did it - killer either breaks down and confesses and she lends a sympathetic "aw, well time to go to jail" expression, or killer tries to take out Jessica only to be stopped by the local cop who she just happens to have brought along who's been hiding in the shadows listening to the killer implicate themselves.

awful.

been laughing at this all morning:

JESSICA:
Looking for this? (She holds up an earring)

SOMEONE’S WIFE, YOU FORGET WHOSE:
Jessica! No, I was just… I thought I heard a dog, in the bin.

JESSICA:
I’m afraid it’s over, Someone’s Wife. You killed Desperate for basically the same mundane, practical reason as one of the male suspects, but you didn’t get much screen time so it still seems like a surprise. I found your earring at the crime scene, and when I give it to the police I’m sure they’ll prove it was yours.

SOMEONE’S WIFE, YOU FORGET WHOSE:
Not if I happen to have a gun on me and draw it now, honestly planning to kill an old lady over some fairly flimsy evidence but for some reason wanting to warn her first!

POLICE IDIOT:
(Emerging from the shadows) Drop it, Someone’s Wife!

SOMEONE’S WIFE, YOU FORGET WHOSE:
Oh for God’s sake. Why do you let her do these things as a weird piece of theatre?

POLICE IDIOT:
Her chain of evidence is always hopelessly weak, so we just have to hope you’ll either kill her or confess.

JESSICA:
It’s true. I have no reason to mention this beyond simple smarm now, but I never found any earring.
