Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen Father Michael is joking with Jessica about using a priest as the main character of one of her novels, he mentions the character of Father Dowling, created by Ralph McInerny. Of course, former cast member Tom Bosley went on to star in the series based on that character.
- GoofsThe plot has Fr. Michael running for the vacant council seat, but Church law prohibits a Priest from seeking or holding elected office as it is in direct conflict with his service to the church.

[last lines]
[talking with Father Michael, who is running for the city council]
Jessica Fletcher: You know, there's one thing that worries me about all this, Michael.
Father Michael: What's that?
Jessica Fletcher: Well, when you're elected, it'll make you even less believable as a fictitious character!

Featured review
A Latin soap opera
Jessica the multimillionaire New England celebrity is once again galvanized by the plight of underprivileged Hispanic residents of inner- city tenements. From there on, the script and the acting get rather sloppy. In fact, the viewer will start wondering if they are watching some kooky telenovela in a show- within-a-show format, like the one Salma Hayek created for Ugly Betty. The bad guys abruptly repent - which is just as well because, you see, they are blood relatives with the good guys anyway. If this was all a subtle send-up it would be awfully clever, and we might get to see the director yell, "Cut!" But I'm not convinced that it is. The murder mystery is strong as ever, but it gets drowned in this shallow melodrama.
