To those who have watched it: what film archetype would you say the main character Jessica Fletcher is portraying? I'm not talking her body shape or specific fashion choices, I'm talking the type casting for a character like that. If you have an idea, please mention your reasoning as well.

I feel like it's something either classic or gamine as an overall vibe with SC as my main 'theory', but I'm curious how other people perceive the character. Thanks in advance to anyone willing to discuss!
