Trivia

For the role of Jessica Fletcher, the producers had first thought of Jean Stapelton, an actress in vogue at the time who played in the successful series "All in the family", but she was not excited by the Idea of ​​the concept. The producers then contact Angela Lansbury who was looking for a first role in a sitcom and which will make the series success thanks to its incredible personality. And that’s how Angela Lansbury ended the superstition who wanted a woman as a main character's character to lead to failure.

In one of the episodes we have noticed the appearance of Judson Mills who plays the role of Francis Gage in "Walker, Texas Ranger".

In the episode "L'Or des morts" (1986), we drew Grant GOODEVE (eight ca. Sufficient) and Leslie Nielsen (the whole series of "is there a cop to save ......" )
