In the 1980s, male protagonists dominated TV detective mysteries. Tom Selleck was the epitome of cool on Magnum, P.I., as were Don Johnson and Philip Michael Thomas on Miami Vice, while Simon & Simon paired Gerald McRaney and Jameson Parker together as private investigator brothers. One small-screen detective, however, was not like the others. In 1984, Murder, She Wrote debuted on CBS, starring the near-60-year-old Angela Lansbury in the lead role of Jessica Fletcher. Today, 30 years after its last episode aired in 1996, Murder, She Wrote is still a big streaming hit, now topping the charts on the Apple TV store.

It's hard to pinpoint, but there is something about a murder mystery that seems to prick our interest while warming our hearts. Perhaps the trick lies in the opportunity the story affords us to play detective as we put the puzzle together, or the thrill of finally solving the case. No matter, one thing is certain, and that is, the murder mystery is one of the most beloved genres today. ABC's How to Get Away with Murder is a particular favorite of many, with the esteemed Viola Davis bringing the character of Criminal Law professor Annalise Keating to life.

Back in April, the world was treated to their first look at the third outing of everyone's favorite nihilistic psychic teen. It was confirmed that Wednesday Season 3 had entered production in Ireland, with Jenna Ortega back at Nevermore Academy to face her toughest case yet. The search for Enid (Emma Myers) is on, with Tyler (Hunter Doohan) looking set to return, and Winona Ryder joining the cast after teaming up with Ortega and Tim Burton on the legacy sequel Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.
