Week of January 1-7, 1996 had two new Murder, She Wrote episodes. Thursday January 4 was Kendo Kill and Sunday January 7 was Death Goes Double Platinum.
There would be another Sunday episode on February 25 (Track of a Soldier) which was the season high, and the final four episodes were also on Sunday.
I can't believe May 19 will be 30 years since Murder, She Wrote ended.
Les Moonves knew exactly what he was doing in September 1995 when he moved Murder, She Wrote to a dead zone time slot. We all know that move was straight up sabotage. Les Moonves is the reason Angela Lansbury cried on 60 Minutes and there is a special place in hell for him for that alone.
It cannot be emphasized enough that Angela Lansbury carried CBS primetime on her back through some pretty awful years from the late 1980s to the mid 1990s and for that reason Murder, She Wrote deserved to have a proper final season farewell on Angela's terms instead of being sabotaged.
