[first lines]
Howard Deems: And that, ladies and gentlemen, for you music lovers, was Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture. For you guys who just like to crank up your stereos, it was that cool thing with the cannons. It's all right, I turned mine up, too, at that point.

Featured review
The all important youth audience
What it all boils down to in this Murder She Wrote story is that the entertainment industry thinks young people are stupid. That they will buy any kind of faddish thing on the market as long as it's advertised well. Give them their most contemporary music of the moment and they will buy what advertisers who bring it to them will sell.
So after years of broadcasting a classical program, David Ogden Stiers is now being given the heave ho. But not fired exactly. As he has some months on his contract Stiers has to play stooge for the new disc jockey Christian Bocher. Like asking Alastair Cooke to be a foil for Don Rickles.
So when Bocher is killed as usual Stiers is the obvious suspect, but as it always works out he has a friend in Jessica Fletcher who is in San Francisco once again promoting another of her mysteries. This mystery as always gets figured out.
I really liked David Ogden Stiers and his character. Alastair Cooke and Don Rickles. Turn that over in your mind.
