I get a huge kick out of watching this show and seeing the amazing assortment of 80s and 90s stars, "before they were famous" stars and stars of classic Hollywood. It's an amazing assortment really. Taking nothing away from the star herself, Angela Lansbury, the 18-time Emmy nominee with a wide range.

But Jesus, you have to wonder what kind of company she keeps considering how many of her friends, close relatives, romantic interests, colleagues and acquaintances commit cold-blooded murder! r/MurderSheWroteTV

Good day everyone!

I have set up some user flairs for the community and we may be adding more later on. The flairs are editable so you can change them however you like -- just please keep things tasteful and 70s related. Thank you very much!

For me, I would say "Jessica Behind Bars". I definitely got the vibe all hell could break loose at any moment (and it sort of did anyways). Not exactly one of those cozy episodes you could fall asleep to.

I just started a watch-through of 8 Simple Rules, the sitcom that was John's comeback vehicle that debuted in the Fall of 2002 - a year before his death. I hate to say it but even in the earliest episodes, John looked unwell. His face looked puffy and he seemed like he was sick. I wasn't the only person who noticed this.

I wonder if John was experiencing any known health issues at this time? I know his death in late 2003 was a surprise and there was some wrongful death lawsuits filed against the hospital that treated him (the same hospital where he was born). At least one was settled out of court and in another one, the doctors were cleared of any wrongdoing.

Also, I just learned one of John's eyes was injured by a flying projectile in a car he was riding in when he was a teenager and he only had peripheral vision in that eye for the rest of his life.

Very sad all the way around.

My mother also watches MSW and she had an episode on last night and Jessica said "I'm the last person in the world that would want to interfere". I literally LOL'd and said "WHAT?! She interferes all the time!"

Also, I swear I heard her say "Come On Eileen" a time or two. I'm guessing somebody on the staff was a Dexy's Midnight Runner's fan.
