. The series aired for 12 seasons from 1984 to 1996 on the

. It is one of the most successful and longest-running television shows in history, with close to 23 million viewers in its prime, and was a staple of its Sunday night lineup for a decade. The series is also successful around the world.
. She holds the record for the most Golden Globe nominations for Best Actress in a television drama series and the most Emmy nominations for outstanding lead actress in a drama series for
, with those nominations netting her four Golden Globe awards. The series received three nominations but no wins in the Outstanding Drama Series category at the Emmys. It was nominated for a Golden Globe in the same category six times and won twice.
Since the series ended in 1996, a series of four TV movies were released between 1997 and 2003, a game created by

. Link, Levinson and Fischer changed the gender of their protagonist from male to female and transformed the character from a good-looking, absent-minded young pedant to a middle-aged, down-to-earth widow.
,contrary to rumors. The show was initially offered to actress
, who turned it down stating that, after nine years of playing the ditsy but well-meaning
, respectively, she did not want to be tied down to another television series. Fischer, Levinson and Link thought Angela Lansbury would be perfect in the part but had not dreamed that she would be interested in a television series. When she made it known she would available if the right project came along, the trio of creators sent her the script and almost immediately,
Angela felt she could do something with the role of Jessica Fletcher. With
debuting on Sunday, September 30, 1984, the producers were able to parlay their "mystery writer/amateur detective" premise into a 12-year hit for CBS. It also made Angela Lansbury a household name for millions of television viewers.
, which was the title of a 1961 film adaptation of Agatha Christie's Miss Marple novel
. The character of Jessica Fletcher could be thought to be based on a combination of Miss Marple, and Agatha Christie herself.
The show revolved around the day-to-day life of a retired English teacher who, after being widowed in her early fifties, becomes a very successful mystery writer. Despite fame and fortune, Jessica remains a resident of Cabot Cove, a cozy coastal town in
, and maintains her links with all of her old friends, never letting her success go to her head. Exterior shots of Cabot Cove were filmed in
Murder rears its ugly head with great regularity in her vicinity (so improbably often that the mystery term "Cabot Cove syndrome" was eventually coined to describe the constant appearance of dead bodies in remote locations). Jessica invariably proves more perceptive than the official investigators, who are almost always willing to arrest the most likely suspect. By carefully piecing the clues together and asking astute questions, she always manages to trap the real murderer, who, given the series' "special guest star" policy, was often played by a famous film or TV personality.
Jessica's relationship with law enforcement officials varies from place to place. Both sheriffs of Cabot Cove resign themselves to having her meddle in their cases. However, most detectives and police officers do not want her anywhere near their crime scenes, until her accurate deductions convince them to listen to her. Some are happy to have her assistance from the start, often because they are fans of her books. With time, she makes friends in many police departments across the U.S., as well as with a British police officer attached to

It was Straczynski who made her an instructor in writing and criminology, and is widely held to have most emphasized her role as a working writer, with all the deadlines and problems involved in that profession.
Following the 1991–92 season, Angela Lansbury became the series' executive producer after she and her husband's production company,
from Universal Television, which remained as a producer and distributor. As the series entered the middle of the decade, it remained a Sunday night staple and eventually became the longest-running mystery series in television history. While the ratings for
had slipped slightly following its resurgence in 1991, it still maintained a loyal viewing audience. In fact, the first season that Lansbury served as executive producer saw another rise in the ratings, as

s eleventh, Lansbury began to consider ending the series, as her advancing age became a concern (she had just turned seventy). However, CBS effectively made the decision for her that fall. After spending eleven years on Sunday, the network's longest-running weekly series (at that time) was moved to Thursday nights at 8 PM. This put the series in direct competition with the first hour of NBC's
lineup, which had been drawing the highest ratings of the week for any network for years. More specifically,

Despite protests of many of the show's fans, CBS refused to budge on the new timeslot.

after twelve seasons in August 1996. To soften the blow, the network agreed to air several
movies over the next few years; the first was broadcast in 1997, with three more following in 2000, 2001, and 2003.

At the beginning of its twelfth season in 1995, CBS moved the show from its extremely popular Sunday night time slot to Thursday night forcing it to compete with NBC's Must See TV line up, and as a result the ratings plummeted.
