Featured review
Martin and Lewis anyone?
Can you imagine if offspring of Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis decided to get married? Who knows but the most famous comedy team break up of all time might have reconciled.
That's something the equivalent of what happens in this Murder She Wrote story as Jessica Fletcher gets an invite to the old Catskills resort just taken over by Buddy Hackett. His daughter Beth Windsor is engaged to George Clooney playing the son of Hackett's former partner Steve Lawrence now a host of a late night variety show.
Even with the kids engaged these two are going at it hot and heavy until Hackett is wounded with a stabbing in the back and later their manager Arte Johnson is killed and it made to look like suicide.
I really liked the performance of young deputy David Knell who now thanks the Deity that Angela Lansbury was on the scene of his first big homicide. It's also good that Lansbury got Hackett and Lawrence to call a truce on the feud until the murder is figured out.
Her biggest stumbling block.
