黄金女郎第一季

 As Murder, She Wrote saunters through its sixth (of an eventual 12) season, star Angela Lansbury maintains her eternally buoyant and inquisitive air as Jessica Fletcher, professional writer and amateur sleuth. Though Jessica continued to investigate murders in her home town of Cabot Cove and elsewhere (in the worlds of high finance, opera, and voodoo, among other settings), this season began the practice of guest detective episodes, introduced by Jessica as either a story she wrote or a tale told by a friend, but starring a variety of quirky investigators: An ex-football player (Ken Howard, The White Shadow) paired with a clever poodle; a television crime-show producer who solved crime in real life (Diana Canova, Soap); a stout Irish detective (longtime character actor Pat Hingle); an abrasive homicide cop (Barry Newman, Vanishing Point); as well as recurring Murder, She Wrote characters like former jewel thief Dennis Stanton (Keith Michell) and British secret agent Michael Haggerty (Len Cariou). The producers were obviously hoping to use Murder, She Wrote's popularity to spin-off new series, but nothing from this season took off and viewer resistance soon brought the practice to an end. Executives must have been surprised to discover that, though murder mysteries are plot-driven, this show's success depends heavily on the undeniable charm of star Lansbury. Still, these one-off episodes are of a consistent quality with Lansbury's, and viewers open to variety will enjoy them just as much. The rest of the season features the usual astonishing array of guests, including movie stars old (Donald O'Connor, Singin' in the Rain) and recent (Elliott Gould, The Long Goodbye), television stalwarts (Shirley Jones, The Partridge Family; Jerry Stiller, The King of Queens; Doris Roberts, Everyone Loves Raymond; Kevin Tighe, Battlestar Galactica; and Gavin McLeod, The Love Boat), and D-list celebrities to die for (Dack Rambo, Morgan Brittany, Susan Anton, and more).

　　海伦米伦也要回归电视圈了！——奥斯卡影后涉足/重返电视圈趋势更甚，HBO刚刚请到梅丽尔·斯特里普加盟《大小谎言》第二季，又宣布海伦·米伦将出演4集限定剧《伟大的凯瑟琳/凯瑟琳大帝》(Catherine the Great)，饰演俄罗斯历史上唯一一位被冠以“大帝”之名的女皇叶卡捷琳娜二世·阿列克谢耶芙娜。这也给了HBO竞争艾美奖限定剧类奖项的机会，此前归为限定剧的《大小谎言》因为续订而被归为剧情类剧集。
　　该剧探索世界上最强大的女君主在政治动荡不安、充满情欲的宫廷中的生活，她与将军格里高利·波将金的私情，丑闻、阴谋、冲突交织的政权等。HBO将其形容为“讲述关于痴迷的爱恋的故事”，凯瑟琳和波将金不能公开结婚、公开滥交，建立了一种独特而忠诚的关系，战胜无数对手，将俄罗斯塑造成当时的最强帝国。
　　与米伦合作了2005年限定剧《伊丽莎白一世》的编剧Nigel Williams将操刀剧本，与米伦合作了2006年限定剧《头号嫌疑犯7》的导演菲利普·马丁执导，David M. Thompson(《金衣女人》《彭伯利谋杀案》)、查理·帕丁森(《伊丽莎白一世》《皮囊》)、Jules Hussey(《胡顿与女爵》)联合米伦和马丁共同制片。
　　Thompson表示米伦在拍摄《金衣女人》时向他提到了这个想法，称凯瑟琳这一人物是她一直都想诠释的。
　　米伦凭借《头号嫌疑犯》《菲尔·斯派特》《伊丽莎白一世》《兰德的激情》《永不放弃》《罗马之春》等限定剧/电视电影获得过11次艾美奖提名，4次获奖，她也获得了4次奥斯卡提名，并于2007年拿下奥斯卡最佳女主角(《女王》)。
　　这部剧由HBO和Sky联合制作，这也是双方合作的第3部剧集，前2部为《切尔诺贝利》和《伦敦黑帮》。双方此前签订了2.5亿美元的合作协议，HBO将负责北美播出，Sky负责英国、爱尔兰、德国等欧洲地区。
