I honestly feel that Murder, She Wrote stands alone, as many of the other great shows of the past 35, 40 years do. It stands alone, and it's still on. It's still all over the world, Murder, She Wrote, Jessica Fletcher and Murder, She Wrote.

Angela Lansbury
You learn a great deal that you can feed into your craft which gives you the experience that you actually need later on, when you start to get the really great roles. You've played that part to a certain degree in that picture, and you played that one in that, and so on. You add it all up, and you have that experience.
