古时的戏子,被视为下等人,所以一般红船组织及戏班,给人的感觉,是由一班没出色的人所组成的聚脚点,奔走四处靠卖艺为生。但随着社会的转变,戏子给人的印象及声誉,不但提高很多,而且出色的更被冠以「明星」美誉,故常时一般青年男女,均希望能置身于「明星」的行列。 其中一间天山影片公司招考新人,同期有两位较为突出,梅妹(李司祺)是天山公司在广州招考,性格率直,精灵乖巧;梅剑仙(黄韵诗)则在澳门招考的,但因出身寒微,养成敏感性格。 梅妹与梅剑仙同姓梅,彼此投缘,故被影圈人士称为「双妹唛」,梅妹比梅剑仙大一岁,故人称「大梅姐」与「细梅姐」,两人的电影事业如日方中,成为电影界红人,然而名利之争,使他俩面和心不和,更因二人同时爱上一风度翩翩的纨姱子弟靳玉褛(黄锦燊),怨从此更深。 二人不断在事业上,爱情上明争暗斗,而今这两位走红影坛廿多年的天皇巨星,终于销声匿迹。

Season 5 finds Murder, She Wrote's intrepid Jessica Fletcher in fine sleuthing form, and venturing farther afield from Cabot Cove--a good thing, since at the rate the murders have been happening, that town would be nearly cleaned out. Some of the best episodes take place in more exotic locales like New York (dead man on the street, wearing just one shoe), Montana (a publishing convention gone horribly wrong) and West Virginia (two whistle-blowers at a coal company found gruesomely murdered). Angela Lansbury sparkles with determination and bonhomie, hitting her stride and then some. Jessica's own life backstory is even filled out tantalizingly, especially in the episode "The Last Flight of the Dixie Damsel," in which an investigation is launched into a mysterious cargo plane that is linked, she learns to her horror, to her late husband. The series' other delight is watching for cameos by stars of a certain age, and this season doesn't disappoint, with appearances by Roddy McDowall, Shelley Fabares, and Dinah Shore--but also some up-and-comers like Megan Mullally (proof positive that the Will & Grace whine was a put-on) and future satirist Bill Maher.
