Mary Rose Welch: In the Garden of Eden Hotel. Oh, that name is so lovely and peaceful. I hope Charlotte was happy there.
Jessica Fletcher: Oh, I'm sure she was. It was her kind of place.
Mary Rose Welch: I've been thinking. The Garden of Eden is my hotel now. Why shouldn't I be happy? I've decided, I'm gonna go up there and run the place myself. Now tell me the truth. Do you think I'll be any good at it?

A long way from troubling
Have always been quite fond of 'Murder She Wrote'. It is a fun and relaxing watch that makes you think as you try to unwind in the evening. If one wants more complex, twisty mysteries with lots of tension and suspense 'Murder She Wrote' may not be for you, but if you want something light-hearted and entertaining but still provide good mysteries 'Murder She Wrote' fits the bill just fine.
Remembered "Trouble in Eden" as one of the best episodes of Season 4, and one of the most unique in a way. Re-watching it last night, that initial opinion very much still stands and it's among my favourite episodes of the show too. The title promises trouble, and the mystery itself is clever and suitably troubling with a lot happening and a surprising ending. One also expects a lot of mayhem, "Trouble in Eden" similarly delivers on that and one has to really admire and be genuinely surprised at what Jessica gets herself into and how she deals with it.
Angela Lansbury cannot be faulted as ever and there is great, professional support from Betty Garrett, Roy Thinnes, Tricia O'Neil, Stuart Whitman and Macdonald Carey.
Production values are slick and stylish as ever with 'Murder She Wrote'. The music has energy and has presence but also not making the mistake of over-scoring, while it is hard to forget or resist the theme tune.
Writing is thought-provoking, light-hearted and amiable and the story doesn't have a dull moment and engages throughout.
Overall, terrific episode and while there is a lot of trouble in Eden the episode itself in quality is a long way from troubling. 10/10 Bethany Cox
