Revealing mistake: When the episode ends and Jessica drives the buggy, she is replaced by a very obvious stunt double with a wig that not only does not resemble her hairstyle, but it's grey as opposed to her light blonde colour.
Continuity mistake: When Danny Kincaid is at the beach, he is wearing green shorts when he is taking his shirt and shoes off, but he has blue and black shorts on when he goes into the water. (00:19:00)
Continuity mistake: When Danny dives into the ocean he's wearing different shorts than he was on the beach.
Murder of the Month Club - S11-E10
Factual error: When Joellen removes the manuscript from the locker at the Yonkers bus station, you can see the address it was originally mailed too. The zip code is 10205. This is incorrect. All Buffalo, NY zip codes start with "14xxx" a zip code starting with "10xxx" would be much further down state.
Another Killing in Cork - S11-E20
Continuity mistake: In the opening exterior shot of the train, it has at least six brown and green carriages. However, in the next exterior shot, the train is made up of three brown and cream carriages.
Chosen answer: This is the very reason my brother and I used to jokingly call the show, "Murder, She Caused." It's amazing she was ever on anyone's guest list for a party, given the likelihood someone would end up deceased. As to your question, most of the time, Jessica Fletcher would have had an air-tight alibi, as she was in a room full of people, or her whereabouts were accounted for when a murder occurred elsewhere. It also seems to me that there were episodes where she, purely with respect to opportunity, could have been a suspect. I believe she even acknowledged that as a logical possibility from time to time, even though she knew, of course, she was not the killer. However, the investigation would obviously rule out the possibility of her involvement, eventually.
