Featured review
No laughing murder
Jessica becomes involved in a long-standing feud between former comic duo Mack and Murray when the two are forced together by the engagement of their children, Kip and Corrie. Initially, the pair seem to restrain their hostility to tongue-lashing, but soon Murray staggers out of the bathroom with a back injury, claiming he was attacked by an assailant wearing red, the color of Mack's bathrobe. Soon, Jessica has an actual murder in addition to a case of injury on her hands when agent Phil Rinker turns up hung from a rafter in the storeroom, in a suspiciously set up case of apparent suicide. Can Jessica solve the case and settle the hostility between the families?
Shades of Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin in regards to the feud between the comedy pair as played by Buddy Hackett and Steve Lawrence. The fact their children are marrying each other is neat touch. It's a top notch episode with plenty of heart and mystery. George Clooney guest stars.
