My Sister Made Me Watch This
Sisters Michelle and Cherie revisit TV shows and movies from their childhood and their different perspectives on them. As the older sister, Cherie most often controlled the television and subjected Michelle to shows that she would never have chosen to watch on her own.

041 Murder, She Wrote: Was Jessica Fletcher the Real Villain??
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week, we’re heading back to Sunday nights in the ‘80s and ‘90s with a show we definitely watched because our mom made us… and ended up loving anyway.
We’re talking Murder, She Wrote—the cozy mystery classic starring Jessica Fletcher, everyone’s favorite mystery novelist/amateur detective who somehow keeps stumbling into murder. Constantly. Everywhere.
We dive into:
- Why Cabot Cove might be the most dangerous town in television history
- What exactly makes a “cozy mystery” (and why this show nailed it)
- The surprising original concept for the series (spoiler: it involved a magician 😳)
- Whether Jessica Fletcher is actually… the villain??
- The wild decision to move the show up against Friends
- And the crossover we cannot believe we don’t remember
Plus, we reminisce about family TV nights, debate who actually watched the show in our house, and question the target audience for a Murder, She Wrote video game.
If you love nostalgia, cozy mysteries, or just a good fan theory, this one’s for yo
