Cletus Investigates Murder??

[MonacoMan]

I’m not sure the link below will work (as usual I can’t get photos to post on this site...no matter what I do they’re always “too big” ), but have been watching Murder, She Wrote for a few weeks now...and discovered Rick Hurst (Cletus) in a Season 5 episode “Something Borrowed, Someone Blue” (1989).

I’ll be honest and say this was a rather silly & ridiculous episode, and Rick just added to it...as he was just as goofy in this as he was in “Dukes”.  He was the cop supposedly investigating the murder (with Jessica Fletcher doing most of the investigating)...but he was basically Cletus in a shirt & tie, lol! 

However, it was cool to see him in something else besides “Dukes”...but, has he ever played a serious role? Just curious...

The image didn't want to display until I knocked off everything after ".gif". Being a hot-linked image, I can't guarantee that it won't disappear.

Thanks! I really wish there was an easier/better way to post pics. This is the only site I have issues on, and I’m not sure why?

I guess that tells me what I need to know about Jessica Fletcher and Murder She Wrote!

Murder, She Wrote was a very good & enjoyable murder-mystery show! Angela Lansbury was superb as Jessica Fletcher! Just because this one episode was goofy, doesn’t mean the whole show was like that. 

MSW tied the original Hawaii Five-0, as being the longest running crime drama, in 1996...as both shows were on for 12 years/seasons (H5-0: 1968-1980 & MSW: 1984-1996)! MSW also had 4 reunion/TV movies from 1997-2003. But, in 2003, the original Law & Order passed them both up with its 13th season. It went on to have 20 years...tying Gunsmoke as the longest running TV drama, period (Gunsmoke: 1955-1975 & L&O: 1990-2010). Now the L&O spin-off SVU has surpassed them all. Personally I don’t care for the L&O shows...but, to each his or her own. 

Anyway, just some useless but interesting TV trivia.  I grew up with “Dukes” and MSW...both were awesome & wholesome shows in their own ways, and have become icons of television (and both have huge cult-followings today)!

If you were as low tech as me you wouldn't have the ability to post pictures anywhere. No matter how many times I'm told how to do it on other forums I still can't figure it out.

Anywhere else I can save or copy a pic & then post it on whatever site. This is the only site that I’ve ever had problems. I’ve not been able to figure it out, either.
