While Lansbury was known for plenty of box office hits, she found herself beloved for two leading roles throughout her career. One of those happened to be the hit TV show that lasted 12 years, Murder She Wrote. Lansbury revealed on Foundation Interviews that she wanted to "settle down" and find an ongoing series rather than moving from project to project. The actress made most of her money from her acting appearances, but also from becoming the executive producer of Murder She Wrote for its final four seasons (via IMDb). But The Richest revealed that she earned $300,000 for each episode of the series — not too shabby for an amateur sleuth.
Fans have been holding out hope that she would reprise the role somewhere down the line. Mental Floss reported that the 95-year old would not be opposed to returning to Cabot Cove for a visit. Like her character, Jessica Fletcher, would say, "There are three things you can never have enough of in life: chocolate, friends, and the theatre" (via Screen Rant).
