How come Jessica Fletcher never got whacked?

Does it not suprise you that jessica fletcher never ended up on top of a mafia hit list? Look at all the people she helped put behind bars. Realistically, somebody should of taken her out along time ago so we wouldnt have to watch re runs of this sh.it on rte.

It's the delightful theme tune.

FatherLen · 15-09-2011 03:35PM

yeah i hate that bitch

pow wow · 15-09-2011 03:36PM

Maybe she did but with her gone there was no-one to write about it. You'll note from the programme title she's pretty fundamental to the documenting of such crimes.

fedor.2. · 15-09-2011 03:38PM

She was probably some kind of Keyser Soze character, evil looking b1tch

Slip me an envelope with €50,000 and I'll see what I can do !!:rolleyes:

Hey, take that back :mad:

Growing up in the 80's with only 2 channels on TV (one of which was closed for half the day), I can tell you, she was as good as it got (after Teresa Lowe & Biddy of course)

Wings Hauser fired a couple of shots at her, though sadly missed. If she died, Dr. Mark Sloan would step into her shoes anyway. The crimes would still get solved, maybe less prolific with the popular crime fighting fiction.

Slang_Tang · 15-09-2011 03:42PM

How come murder followed her everywhere she went and no one ever suspected her of being the killer?

Saila · 15-09-2011 03:42PM

she was the hitman, everywhere she went someone was murdered :eek:

a carbomb similar to the end scene in casino would be great

Logical Fallacy · 15-09-2011 03:44PM

If the zombie craze was big back then they could have done an episode where she solves her own murder.

Wicked.

Professey Chin · 15-09-2011 03:44PM

It was pretty accurate though. Nosy old bitches always seem to know everything happening in a town

ItsNoAlias · 15-09-2011 03:48PM

I have had this discussion on many occassion. I believe the reason she never got wacked was because she was secretly a mass murderer who manipulated other people into committing horrible acts on her behalf.

Alls I know is if she ever turned up anywhere I was or was due to be I would hightail it outa there.

Shes not real you know?

She was definitely a suspect in one episode I saw

But there were loads!

I remember one I saw (I used to watch them during summer holidays:o) where she went away on holidays, someone was killed back home in Cabet Cove and like the niece or someone was in contact with her, and she solved the case... FROM OVERSEES! :eek: Some woman, I'll tell ye that:)!

And father Dowling too.

hidinginthebush · 15-09-2011 03:57PM

I've heard that she has a house down in Cork, and that the set of Cabot Cove is now used as the setting for the Jaws attraction in Universal Studios.

Also, she seems to put a lot of trust in the fact that killers confess their crimes before offing her. The amount of times she's had Amos, or some other local sheriff, hide next door and hear the confession gives strength to her bravado and the trust she places in the human need to share our darkest secrets. Jessica Fletcher had balls of steel, and, I imagine, worked as a stern head-mistress in a former life, teaching such young bucks such as Stephen Segal and Chuck Norris how to forge an iron discipline and apply it to all facets of life.

because the police (from any town, anywhere) are always hiding behind the curtain or just outside the door

Archeron · 15-09-2011 04:00PM

I'll sit back and wait for Ruu to post the pictures of her in her younger hotter days.

All is forgiven Ms Fletcher, you can whack me anyday.

JONJO THE MISER · 15-09-2011 04:03PM

Now now leave Jessica alone, what else are us unemployed meant to watch in the afternoon.

Ben Moore · 15-09-2011 04:05PM

I blame the casting director in this movie for all your Jessica Fletcher woes.

How could you whack that fine piece of ass.

The police in a town not too far from mine hid behind a curtain... in the pub when he was drinking pints on duty!

Classic split personality sociopath :

Dissociative identity disorder is a psychiatric diagnosis and describes a condition in which a person displays multiple distinct identities or personalities (known as alter egos or alters), each with its own pattern of perceiving and interacting with the environment.

Columbo would have put her behind bars in no time.

o1s1n · 15-09-2011 04:09PM

My house mate and his girlfriend watch this all the time. They even make sure to record episodes in case they miss it. And they're not taking the piss, they actually really enjoy it.

I'll hear the theme tune and then he'll shout up the stairs 'COME DOWN! MURDER SHE WROTE IS ON! as if it was some sort of event not to be missed.

They're only about 24 or 25. I can't figure it out at all!

Definitely wouldn't invite her to a party. The Dunnes Store party selections wouldn't be out of the oven when there'd be someone in a heap in the middle of the dining room and she would be standing there googly eyed and then come out with the classic accusation "Well I didn't see you about Plazaman, that's strange".

"Fúck off Fletcher, I was keeping an eye on the onion bhajis".

I may or may not have had previous Murder She Wrote nightmares.
